Yes. I'm kind of an "extroverted introvert". I like being around people I know and my brain considers just being in the same room with someone to be "socializing", even if we aren't really interacting. I have no problem with you bringing up random topics or whatever, but if you're talking non-stop and expecting me to listen and respond then we're gonna have problems.
People get surprised when I say that because I can be very loud and talkative, but the thing they don't get is that A) my brain does not consider screaming random garbage in a toad voice while playing Mario Kart to be socialization, and B) I tend to be talkative in bursts, but if you're not around me a lot then you probably won't notice that.
I need breaks, and a break can be as simple as taking a nap on the couch while you play a game on the TV; or watching YouTube on my phone while you're reading a book. I still need breaks though.
