Is it normal that i want to socialize but i always make excuses when invited?

For some reason I can't figure out that for the life of me is making me go crazy I feel sad for not being social and doing all the normal things that other people do but then when I get invited to hang out or go somewhere I always come up with some excuse not to go? Why do I do this to myself?

    It's normal. I have the same problem, but usually go in the end whether I want to or not. I'm always glad that I did too!

    You just an introvert, nothing to worry about. Just do what makes you happy, if you don't want to do something then don't do it!

    It's normal, but it's something that you should try to change. It's easy to become anxious and think about all the things that could go wrong / think that people won't like you if you go out, but you should push yourself to go, because clearly people do like you if they're inviting you out! And if you always decline invitations, they might think that you don't like them and then be hurt / stop inviting you out to places.

    i feel the same too. I think sometimes you just have to push yourself and go and understand you are the only one that will make it awkward if you let yourself. just focus really hard on having a good time and ignore those demons in your head.
