Why is it that some people become so disliking toward someone who does not come out of the house often? Why can't people just accept it that some people would rather spend more time indoors, especially someone dealing with psych problems and physical disabilities?
I know adult alcoholics that get mad when you don't want to go out to drink with them. They usually are seeking validation for their behavior. Also know foodies that get mad when you don't want to go out to fancy expensive restaurants.

Oh, I see now.. seriously was not thinking about it that way. I asked this because it unsettles me when people talk badly about those who are mostly homebodies. Lots of people have medical issues that keeps us mostly close to home. I know for myself, I would much rather stay in with my condition and take care of myself than forcing myself out just to please someone else, then ending up in the ER.
They can't imagine you might prefer it because they themselves are so needy of external attention and stimulation. So they get uncomfortable with what they don't understand and have to criticize it.

This also makes sense, especially external stimulation. I am one of the few around here without much desire for it although I do occasionally get out and have no problem with those who go out all the time. I find my peace in arts and crafts, other indoor hobbies such as cooking and diy. I have just always wondered why so many seem to dislike private people.

I've come to view humans as pack animals. Everyone wants to keep up with the herd. In human's case it's about keeping up with the Jones's and status;not for survival. Those who criticize like that are followers.
Some people even adults want playmates much akin to a child coming out to play. It's about them not you. Others don't want their family or friends to influence their image. And again it's about validating their behavior/choices.
Who are these people? Your parents? Your teachers? Your neighbors? Your therapist? Your parole officer?
Neighbors. I don't have a teacher or parole officer. Have never been in that sort of trouble. I just don't see how it matters that much though who is doing the talking.
