I live with normies, the happy kind with wives and kids and homes who are satisfied with their lives, and I can tell you that they spend most of their time socializing. That is to say, very few of their daily activities are solitary, and even when they are at work or around people they don't necessarily like all that much, they are talking and gossiping and arguing and sharing stories and bragging/complaining about their families, etc. For a happy normie, life is all about interacting with other people, not about solitary or anonymous pursuits. Even introverted normies (yes, they do exist) tend to order their lives around other people and gain a lot of happiness from the few good relationships and friendships they posess.
People like us, on the other hand, are just "different" in some way that prevents us from socializing normally. We still have the same need for it as a normie, and if we could overcome the mental and emotional obstacles in our way, we could even gain the same pleasure from social interaction. But as things usually stand, our forays into the social world are short and calculated, and we need time to recover from them. This is why we spend most of our time on our hobbies, alone.
That being said, that doesn't mean that we are worth less than them or that we are not capable of happiness. We just have a harder time fulfilling our need for interaction.
