Do I have social anxiety?

I feel like I'm a lifeless person that not many people would ever want to be around. Introverted, I don't feel that anything I have to say is really interesting to other people/worth sharing. I don't like how alcohol or drugs seems to be mixed in to a lot of "social events"... "Hey, wanna come out for beers?" "-no." I don't feel the need to document my entire life through photographs and share it for everyone view or comment on.

I work hard, I'm friendly and get a long with people, but its usually just interactions that I have through work. I try to maintain a professional character and play by the rules.

The only reason I care, is because of a young woman I have been with for the past 5 years is losing interest. She's really been one of the few people I truly cared deeply for... Regardless, she wishes I had more friends. Is this all my fault? It has to be...

We don't live together, yet. So simply seeing each other is a pain in the ass and only happens a few times a week, usually on days that I don't work, because I pull 12 hour shifts. And even that being said, my days off are spent taking care of her and making sure she gets to work. So, what little time we have, I value (not so sure about her these days...)

There is obviously a lot more to this... However the main question is, would me not liking the above mentioned things be a factor in social anxiety? I don't really feel that it is, but I need to start trying to figure some of this shit out.

Thanks!

Only scored a 14... So I guess that answers that. So does this mean I just let the girl go? Cut our time together down from 8-10 times a month of seeing each other to 1-2 times a month? Until she complains more and says we never see each other any more, then tell her it's to late, my time is committed else where now?

I am no relationship expert. All I can say is that if your hearts not completely in it, there's no reason to continue the relationship. Whether you want to end it gradually or abruptly is up to you.
