Similar to a loner, but on a larger scale. They appear to be detached and emotionless, but they are still people. They have little regard for social norms. For more information, see loner.

*note: Schizoids are NOT schizophrenic. The similarity in name is because they basically mean 'split from society' and 'split up mind' respectively.

Schizoid personality disorder is a condition in which people avoid social activities and consistently shy away from interaction with others. People with the disorder are generally loners with a profound inability to connect with others and form personal relationships.

In some cases, a schizoid may want above all to integrate into the social world but when they do receive the attention, they suddenly prefer to be left alone.
I don't know... I mean I want a girlfriend so bad but I keep refusing one after the other. I can't seem to make up my mind.

Being a schizoid is really annoying. When I'm at home doing nothing, I want to be outside with my buddies. When I'm out with them, I want to be inside again.
