Not everyone wants to chat up a storm, Karen. There is always that one person in every situation—works, social, family, whatever—that thinks you’re just not talking because you’re shy or you don’t know anybody. And though those might be true, that does not mean they want you to talk to them. That’s what some of us in the introvert game (and extrovert tbh) like to call a «party jailer.» Why do you think you never see me? It’s because I enjoy being home doing my own silly little project. I have 12 books that are 2,000 pages each that I need to read. I told myself I’d knit a scarf before it’s hot out again. My mice’s cage needs redecorating. I need to catch up on 80 hours of sleep. I had an idea in the middle of the night of a short story and need to get writing it! 

Like, not everyone’s life revolves around hanging out with you. That being said, even introverts need a little interaction from time to time, just not all the time. In the meantime, just send them memes. They, for sure, are sending you ones like a penguin bringing you a pebble.
