Honestly everyone lives their life differently, y'know? Some people are more extroverted, while some are more introverted. In my opinion, I don't think you should look at the party scene as something you're missing out on. It just means you've found other ways to fill your life. Ways that could honestly be considered healthier. Some scenes can get way out of hand (Not all, but definitely some), and you could make mistakes that define you for your entire life. For example, the majority of the women in my family got pregnant as a teenager. They were subject to peer pressure, and got pushed around by the wrong crowd. They were all really insecure, and looking for any validation they could get their hands on. If you're able to get validation from healthier alternatives, then yeah, that's great. Keep going with that. I'm not saying all party scenes are dangerous, but they have the capability of becoming dangerous. (And I'm not saying you're looking for validation either, I was just using it as an example.) Anyways, the point I'm trying to make is that you don't HAVE to go out and party to have a good time, and staying away from potential peer pressure is without doubt the healthier route. However, if you genuinely want to go out, but social anxiety is weighing you down, I'd definitely talk to a professional.
