2. "But you don't SEEM nervous or socially anxious when you're with people!"
3. "When I first met you, I thought you were stuck-up."
4. "Don't be boring!"
5. "Why are you even here, if you aren't going to talk to people?"
6. "Why are you so quiet?"
7. "All you have to do is to talk! It's so easy."
8. "Wait, why do you need alone time?"
9. "You need to find a hobby or something, so you can meet people!"

20. "Why are you so awkward?"
21. "You're so serious. Do you ever enjoy yourself?"
22. "What do you DO all day?"
