A People Person
You're a total people person! You derive most of your excitement and energy from other people. The more people around, the more social and happy you become (unless it's an angry mob, of course!) You delight in having many friends with different personalities and attributes. You love going out and spending time outside the home or hosting people. You delight in large families and probably grew in a pretty close-knit and perhaps large family. You enjoyed having friends all your life, and you couldn't see yourself living without them.
It's not that you specifically hate other people. It's that you have had a lot of unpleasant experiences in your life, and most of them were because of other people. You like individuals, but the more people surround you, the more you feel the need to escape and be by yourself. You don't like doing things while being watched, you enjoy a very small but close-knit circle of friends, and you try your best not to go to parties or concerts, where you'll be surrounded by people. You probably grew up without a large group of friends or may have had some, and time drew you apart. But you don't really feel a loss. You enjoy being by yourself more than anything, with the exception of a close spouse or dear friend or family member you have in your life and who fills your need for company.
You don't dislike people; you just have a limit. That limit can be quickly reached by a very long evening with friends or a party where you don't know most people. You don't dislike people, but they wear you down the more time you spend with them, and within a few hours, you've probably had your fill of social behavior. Between you and your partner, if you have one, you're always the one who wants to leave the party early. You have a few good friends and/or family that you're close with, and that's all you feel you need. The best fun is with a few friends at home.
You're not a people person, nor do you dislike people. You are right in the middle, a normal person. You sometimes love social events, especially if a bit lubricated, you love to laugh and have a good time, especially if you're going out to do something fun. You grew up with a good amount of friends and in a relatively normally functioning family. However, like most people, you have periods where you need to be alone, don't feel like going out, or are just focused on yourself. That is normal behavior, so don't feel bad about having changing enthusiasm levels for social behavior, few are the people who can be social all the time.
