We are social animals. Most of us crave social connection, it's ingrained in us. I personally don't hate people in general. They can annoy me but unless if someone does something that really pisses me off then I have no reason to truly hate them. Still, I'm not a huge fan of socializing and I like being by myself and I still find myself craving social connection. I'm not even that into the idea of having friends yet a part of me still instinctually craves it.
