Anyone Else Feel Like Socializing Has a ‘Battery Life’?

I enjoy spending time with people, but it’s like I have this invisible social battery that drains way too fast. After a few hours of chatting, even with close friends, I’m mentally exhausted and just want to retreat into my quiet space.

The weird part is, people assume I don’t like them or that I’m being rude when I pull back, but it’s not that at all I just need time to recharge.

Does anyone else feel this way? How do you handle explaining it to people without sounding like a total weirdo?
