Enforced fun

The hell of enforced fun: by this I mean the let's mingle with others on your course. Now, however nasty this might seem, I do not have an opening in my friend books at the moment. I am well aware that I should be sociable, make friends and influence people etc, but I don't want to. Now this could be because I am socially inept and a bit autistic, but this is not the case. No, the woman does not protest too much. I am generally regarded as quite charming, witty and engaged with the world.
The thing is, I have friends, whom I value and love and I just don't have room for any more. I am studying every weekend to stay atop my reading, at uni 2 days a week and working the other 3. With my friends I don't have to do the getting to know you crap, as our knowledge of each other predates the ark. Short hand in conversations is good, because it is short.
Just let's pause to notice the hypocrisy sprites: THE TIME SPENT WRITING THIS BLOG COULD HAVE BEEN SPENT MAKING A NEW FRIEND.
Key point: I just don't want to.
