Writing software in most companies is a team endeavor. If you can't handle interacting with others on a daily basis, find another industry. Better yet, start your own company.

There is a huge difference between working on a team and the team essentially acting as a replacement for your social life.

I love working on a team. I don't want to spend my free time with them. That's what my friends are for.

Sometimes people from the team become friends that I spend time with outside of work, but that's on my terms not my employers.

It really seems like many people do not have any kind of healthy boundary with their employer.
