I grew up as an only child, and have always done things by myself and used of being by myself. In a way, you could say that I'm not as social as I should be.
I like getting to know people too, but it doesn't bother me if I don't. Now, if I'm in a whole other country, I'd probably go out of my way to make sure I get to know people since the people I do know (from home), wouldn't be around.
I think the main time I approach people on my own, is if it's a guy I'm interested in and would like his attention, but, as I pointed out, it's usually someone I've known for a while anyway, like say a coworker or classmate.

Well I used to be the same. More because I was depressed and couldn't care less about making new friends etc. I was fine with what I had.
I changed though and realised I needed to fix myself. Secluding myself just made stuff worse cos I was working against my own personality.
As for approaching people I may have an interest in, I don't. I've never asked someone out because I thought they were good looking or something. Just don't have the drive to do that cos I know at the end of the day, I don't know them and it puts me off.
I tend to have relationships with people i've known for years.

It makes life so much more exciting when you're trying to get to know all them.

Yea I don't understand people who have 3 or 4 friends and think its fine to not be friendly with anyone else.
They're not depressed or anything, just.. boring. >.>
