With us humans, yes we're social creatures but if there's no social environment directly outside our window and we get on with getting our needs met, then we do fine alone and find comfort in it.
It's like what happened to many during our isolation lockdown, at least for me and what I saw. Having a shorter temper in males I related to as well. If you're not socialising, you have less of a tolerance for communication with others and get tipped off more easily because you want to go back to the comfort of being by yourself.
Only reason you'd socialise and communicate more often is from pressure to do so, whether it be self inflicted or external factors. For example, when going through depression I was a hermit and only near the end did I feel pressure from myself to do more, and only then did breaking out of that isolation shell occur.
I have a feeling I'm not making myself clear, but I can always clarify.
