What's so important or special about social interactions anyway?

Hi,

Ever since I can remember, I have always had a dream of being super rich so I can buy my own island!

I want to have my own island, big enough for a house and for leg room and beautiful landscape and a landing area for a helicopter, that's it.

This "dream" doubles up as my happy place if I need to escape or zone out for whatever reason.

It has no people or social interactions of any kind, the idea of not even having to talk and completely rely on picking fruits etc for sustenance is incredibly relaxing to me.

I know it is unrealistic, hence the helicopter backup to keep me grounded but I can't help but often wonder about the big deal of social interactions.

Why is it assumed that humans are social creatures and that any AS individual that doesn't agree is mistaken and either have to mask/fake it or be outcast?

Why isn't the truth for humans NOT to be social and those wanting it are the odd ones out that rely on a third party to exist or feel better about themselves rather than be self sufficient?

I'm curious what the community thinks if this.

Thanks
