social anxiety vs. not wanting to talk to people

what is the difference? i think i have both. maybe in truth, i avoid talking to people because it causes me anxiety. but, actually a lot of the time, i believe i don't care to, it's just too hard and kind of a waste of time, and what some people have to say is plain old not interesting to hear. not that i don't like said people, there is just no emotional rise to be gotten out of some the inane stuff, the bad kind of inane that is not even entertaining and makes time go by slower rather than faster.

plus, it is too hard to talk when people don't get all the subtext of what you really mean right away, when they're not already on your level that you assume people to be on, it's just too hard and too uncomfortable. so i avoid these situations. i really want to give people credit!
