There are always some people that get along with other very well; we call them "people-persons." However, where there are "people-persons," there are also non "people-persons." These people just can't get along with everyone they encounter. They hate the thought of encountering and making conversations with people that they aren't close to. I am one of these people and I think, at this point in my life, that I will always be one. I've come up with a few things that a non "people-person" does to avoid human interactions.

1. You'd rather stay at home.

A non "people-person" would rather stay at home than go out and risk the chance of human interaction. The safe haven for a non "people-person" is his / her home. There, you never have to encounter a single stranger and / or interact with them.

2. You take the long route just to avoid people.

This is something that everyone does once in a while. However, a non "people-person" does this all the time. They would rather walk an extra five minutes than go through a crowd of people that they know or have to interact with (even if it's just to say "excuse me").

3. You plan escape routes to get out of confrontations.

Similar to the last sign, everything a non "people-person" does is planned in advance. Hundreds of escape routes are running through one's minds as to how you can get of these confrontations.

4. Your "bitch" face is always present.

To avoid interacting with people, the "bitch" face is the way to go; using this lowers that chance of people trying to talk to you. This method means that you can avoid the oncoming awkwardness that is bound to happen while interacting with people.

5. You always feel awkward talking to strangers.

It's safe to say that a non "people-person" avoids confrontation, not because he / she doesn't particularly like people, but because he / she wants to avoid the awkwardness. They don't and won't ever feel comfortable talking to strangers where they can't be themselves just yet.
