99% of communication in public is non-verbal. Your smile, your posture, your demeanor, your willingness to help others. You can call this the "Tourist syndrome" you are a tourist in your own neighborhood. You are leaving a good impression.

That's true but sometimes interacting with people can be draining and exhausting

Cut it short, and set boundaries. Around 15% (vague number) of people have narcissism. And it's growing. So one trick I found is keep it short. Also - expand yourself in order to talk to more people.

The feeling you get inside dealing with a person is your guiding light. Often times you won't even know somebody is a mess. But the feeling in your stomach you get when you're around them and talking to them lets you know never to deal with that person.

"Epidemiology. The lifetime rates of narcissistic personality disorder are estimated at 1% in the general population; and between 2% to 16% in the clinical population."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_personality_disorder

However I think it would be safe to assume 15% is a good number of people who are not worth your time

And when it comes to women pick who you interact with very carefully. I find that women are very toxic to my mental wellbeing. They're treated much better than I am (no matter what I do). I can't go in public with women on me. I like to go to places alone

If you feel exhausted dealing with people that's alright. Some people are meant to be exhausting. Some people are very broken.

I never saw it that way. I always blamed the exhaustion on myself., but it's actually 50/50
