Have you talked to a professional about this? I think there are medications that can help you if you have social anxiety disorder.
I am a very shy person who feels very awkward in social situations. I can understand where you're coming from. Most people jump to conclusions that I am a snob because I am not talkative around people I don't know well.

maybe you are just the sort of person that people don't like.
maybe you are an attention-seeker.
maybe you have some kind of mental or personality disorder.
the bottom line and brutal truth is that, in all likelihood, noone really cares. either go and seek professional help, or deal with it. these cycles of diverting attention to yourself don't help anyone, including you, and are getting really old.
if your situation really bothers you, and you can't bring yourself to seek professional help, then at the very least you could do worse than turning off your computer, stepping outside, and participating in some activities which require face to face interaction with real people, rather than hiding away in a room with little natural light, and only virtual human contact.
alternatively, do as you always do, and either ignore the advice given to you, or argue as to why it is wrong.
Next time your eating lunch with rachel just ask her if she would like to go to dinner or a movie.Oter wsie you'll never get over your shyness or fear of rejectio or whatever. Face it headon.
What diagnosis? It's about not reading human interaction properly.
And you can say "nobody cares!" but again, who are you to say that? Moderator cut: rude ?
Moderator cut: orphaned You are asking us to diagnose you. You asked if you have a social disability. I really don't know. No one on here knows you well enough to diagnose you.
