<human>: So I guess I'm just wondering if what I am currently going through is normal for most people in their early 20's or if there is something wrong with me.  

I move yearly for my job.  It's a bit difficult because I have a very hard time connecting with people.  I can probably count my friends on one hand.  Does it typically take more than a year for people to develop a friendship?

Moreover, I'm not really interested in becoming friends with anyone I work with...but thinking that makes me feel like an asshole...but at the same time, I'm usually a good judge of people from just a couple interactions... and they all seem very different from me.  Whenever I get invited out, I find myself waiting for a good moment for me to slip away so I can go home.  Or standing awkwardly in the corner listening to someone's conversation.

I also don't have a significant other, and have only ever dated one person (over a year ago)...I can't say I was super in love with them...but being in a relationship was interesting and different so I stuck with it for a while... I haven't really sought another relationship since then, because it just seems like a hassle...

At the same time, I get lonely and wish I had someone around whom I could hang out and laugh and be comfortable with like I do when I'm hanging out with my best friend (whose a hundred miles away)... and I feel like I'm wasting my life locked up in my room... but at the same time, it takes so much energy to go out and try to socialize...

Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?
