antisocial extrovert

The term can describe a broad array of possibilities:

1.) Someone who could easily be the life party... if you could just get them to come to it.
2.) Someone who came to the party, lived it up, and then wanted to get the heck alone.
3.) Someone who came to the party, got drained from the crowds, and then wanted to get the heck alone.
4.) Someone who can carry a conversation in a bucket, but prefers not to seek them out with others.
5.) Someone aware that they usually have fun around others but are happier ignoring that in favor of just being alone.
6.) Someone who is probably glad those get-together plans got the heck cancelled.

Antisocial extroverts may prefer small groups of friends and/or family over larger groups, supposing they prefer some people. Though probably capable of making and elaborating upon small talk, they may hate it. They may feel a pointlessness to social gatherings unless they can somehow "fit in" meaningfully, such as having a role (cooking, entertaining, etc). If not, they most likely feel an outright pointlessness to social gatherings.

Zach: "Ok cool"

Rather than spending time engaging in conversation with the rest of the family, Sigmund sat in the corner playing solitaire on his laptop. He continued to do so, until his antisocial computing was interrupted by an incoming text message he proceeded to read aloud, derailing the ongoing discussion from the sidelines...

I can't believe it... we haven't spoken to Randy since high school. He added us as friends on Facebook but never responds to any of our messages. He has over 100 friends but we've never even seen him post a comment. Talk about antisocial networking!
