I am extremely socially awkward, I have a lisp and stutter (boyfriend calls it cute though?) have spent my entire life rarely leaving the house besides to buy more video games (I play 24/7) and love reptiles..

Id say its a fairly common inadequacy in reptile keepers yes.
Thats really a lot of people who keep any kind of "pet" though. ;/
Id say the cat people are much higher up on the list...

Not me. I'm social. I party I'm usually a butterly a little bit of everywhere. I'm very involved with customer service where I work. Im an auto technician and customers hate u before they get in the door.. my girlfriend says I'm to out going and likeable. People are usually very blown away by my collection of reptiles and plants. Lol
Kind of a funny question to ask on a chameleon forum by the way. Like hey are you all weirdos. Like sure lol. I Probably deal with more people in one week then most people do in there life .
You should see the other group of people I interact with. Talk about weirdos. I promote raves.

I've always been a peron that could talk to a tree. I could walk in Starbucks and end up talking to a complete stranger. I prefer to be alone and independent, but I also enjoy socializing. I think it's a balance, and it all depends on your personality. Since I started keeping Chameleons, I've noticed some weird looks from people. Lol. Some people think it's the coolest thing since sliced bread, and others automatically think you must be weird. They seem pretty shallow to me anyways. If you can't appreciate and animal you can't cuddle with, then you are missing out on life.
I think everyone should do what they love and be who they are. You shouldn't have to hold yourself back by trying to be someone different. Do what makes you happy. Even if others might think you are weird for doing it. The people worth getting to know are the ones that appreciate your truth. Being unique isn't about being different, it's about being yourself.

Weird, maybe a little, depending on your idea of normal.
But not socially awkward, no. At least, I dont see myself that way. Some of the people I know who also keep chameleons are very sociable, outgoing, friendly, popular people.
