Those fears may seem irrational to you, but it doesn't make them any less real to them. Try some empathy instead of judging your friends so much.

How do you empathize over something that makes no logical sense?

So here am I trying to get my friends to go out and have fun and not miss out, yet they refuse to

Heck you dont even have to mingle with anyone new

Ironic really, pre judging people, cos the rest of society dont do this

Empathy doesnt get far Ive tried

Being firm works

And its funny, arent they judging other people (they never met or seen) themselves firstly hence the anxiety?

Sounds like you're trying to force them to do shit they don't want to do. Leave them alone.

They clearly don't have social anxiety if they want to go out to dinner with you and other strangers sitting around tables. What the fuck is wrong with the place you picked?

Think about something that scares you. Now imagine your friends think that fear makes no sense and they get mad at you. That's what this is like and that's how you empathize with them. Do you guys empathize with depressed people? How about people who suffer from any other type of mental conditions. Empathy is about feeling what the other person feels. Ignorance is not an excuse if you care about these people. If they only upset you being the way they are then maybe you should all get new friends.

What's with people who are always drawn to crowded places and feel like they're missing out if they're not there? It's like... literally what sheep do

I don't LIKE going some PLACES either TC. I'm not socially unequipped, I just don't want to go there lol. If I had a friend that made a topic like this over it I'd consider that I made the right decision as well

People can change. I gave him the benefit of the doubt. If he hasn't changed I'm not concerned. I'm not one of his friends.
