For me, over the years having no connection with anyone at work has actually been detrimental and led me to seek an in office job.
It wasn't the only factor but it was definitely one of them. Humans are social creatures at the end of the day.
I don't need work to be social. Sounds like a skill issue to me.
You don't necessarily need it, but if you have a full time job that's roughly a third of your time. Having a third of your time without social interaction causes you to need an extremely robust social life outside of work to make up for it, throwing things off balance.
I don't think it has much to do with skill, I just wanted more balance in my life
