Why is being around other people the single most unpleasant experience I regularly encounter?
Is this a normal feeling?

You most likely came from a sheltered, hermit family. Or you have aspergers. Or autism. I dont know, cancer maybe?
But I know what you mean, to some extent. I cant bear to ride public transit (Milwaukee fag here) because of the dumb, smelly, nose-picking, grunting, scratching, mouth-breathing, phlegm-swallowing scum of human beings seem to be 80% of the bus.
I usually have an earbud in for music anyway, so I learned to ignore they exist. Walk around better neighbors with friendlier vibes. Literally any stranger could win me over by just flashing a quick smile to me and giving some eye contact for about 2 seconds.
No, it's not.
I'm similar. I know I'm this way because I've encountered constant negative experiences when it comes to interacting with others, and to avoid the pain I began to draw away from other people.
It's like having something sharp embedded in my foot. Every step I take I'll feel it, and while I'll walk around when I need to I'll generally avoid it, because if I did it all the time I'd be in a lot of pain and unhappy.
