Do you consider yourself to be a social butterfly? Probably not, if the media has anything to do with it. Many of us think that everyone else has a better life than what we\u2019ve got because of what we see online. We compare ourselves unfavorably to friends, family, and even strangers, and conclude that we\u2019re not sociable enough. Well, if you\u2019ve ever had that doubt weighing over you, it might be time to stop and realize you\u2019re actually a lot more social than think.<\/p>\n

The downside of social media<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s impossible to escape social media these days. If you don\u2019t have an account on one site or another, you seem to be in the vast minority of people. These platforms are brilliant for keeping in touch with others, but they can also be incredibly dangerous. Spending an hour scrolling through Instagram feeds can actually be detrimental to your mental health.
\nAlmost everyone uses social media to advertise the good moments in their life. Many people want others to envy what they have, so they paint their life in a favorable light for them to see. That might be great for them, but when everyone on your feed is doing the same thing, it can really get you down. While you\u2019re sitting there in your PJs eating ice cream, everyone else is sunning themselves up on a beach or going on an adventure with their friends. Why can\u2019t you be that sociable?

Doing the research<\/h2>\n

A vast amount of research has been carried out to explore why we have feelings of social inferiority. Although these experiments have come in different forms, they\u2019ve all largely found the same results.
\nIt was identified in nearly every study that participants considered their social lives to be lacking in comparison to those of other people. From things like the number of parties they go to, to how often they see their family, they almost always ranked themselves lower than everyone else. In the eyes of these participants, the people they compared themselves to were part of the \u201cin\u201d crowd, while they were sitting neglected on the outside.<\/p>\n

Analyzing the results<\/h2>\n

The primary outcome that researchers were able to pull from these results were that participants were regularly judging their sociability based on the same flaw. The people they were comparing themselves to were almost exclusively ones who are prevalent on social media. These people are always doing the most social activities, and are hardest to avoid online, so it makes sense that they\u2019d come to mind first. If you\u2019re always comparing yourself to people like this, then, of course, you\u2019ll consider yourself less sociable.

Increasing your sociability<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re worried that you’re not sociable enough, it might be a good idea to stay away from social media. That probably sounds like an outrageous suggestion to some people, but it might be worth giving yourself some distance. Changing the people you regularly see on these platforms is also ideal, because it means you\u2019re less likely to feel inferior after scrolling through your feeds. If someone is always making you feel bad about your sociability because of what they post, it might be worth separating yourself from them.
\nMoreover, it\u2019s important to remember that your social life is as busy and vibrant as you want it to be. If you want to do more, then you\u2019ll go out and do it. Otherwise, you should remind yourself that you\u2019re doing as much as you feel comfortable, and that\u2019s what matters. Don\u2019t force yourself to go out and do something, especially if you\u2019re not a huge extrovert. It\u2019ll only make you feel worse.
\nAt the end of the day, it\u2019s the quality of your friendships that should take more precedence over the quantity of them. If you\u2019re surrounded by people who enjoy your company, and who invite you to do things, then there\u2019s absolutely nothing wrong with your social life. In our opinion, it\u2019s thriving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
