Admittedly I'm a bit of an introvert so my social schedule looks like this:
Monday-Thursday: Attend school so I am social with fellow classmates, teachers etc who have become friends.
Thursday-Sunday: These are my days off and whilst I occasionally may feel the need to do something social I prefer to use these days to finish off assignments, surfing the web, watching films or playing video games.
So I'm a pretty even mix. 4 days of being a social butterfly, three days of not so much socialising.

Not much, just don't know how to talk to people in person as easy as I can over a computer.

Not very much. At work, I'm polite, but refrain from making any personal connections with coworkers. Outside work, I have a few close friends I keep in contact with and visit when our schedules allow. And I live with my boyfriend, who is pretty much the same.

IRL I'm somewhat shy around people I'm unfamiliar with, but I'm cordial and I can loosen up pretty quickly once I get to know someone.

Long-term friendships /relationships are off-limts with me , due to my Asperger's I have a hard time connecting to a lot of people , because of that I don't even bother trying to talk to anyone , sometimes I'll try and talk to a girl and I usually end up cutting them off, I do this a lot and it makes me seem like a ass hole

I spend most of my time in my own bedroom on my laptop/reading books/watching films/playing video games
I only ever really leave the house for work and to take my dog for a walk
I have a lot of friends (im still friends with classmates from school) but dont really go anywhere with them ( i dont drink alcohol, so any time i go to birthday parties etc i just end up sitting there listening to others talk and watching them get drunk) . The only time i will get together with a group of mates is when we are going to the cinema

Eh, don't really have any friends. I am pretty friendly when I go out into the world.

Social life has taken a bit of a plunge truth be told.
10 years ago I use to be very social, than things like work, buying places and in some cases people getting married and having kids, suddenly we were all to busy to meet up.
We still will every now and then but no way near as often as we use to.
Sometimes I prefer to be alone so it's not that big a deal to me.

My fear of dogs and crowds of young people have kept me a hermit most of the time. Put on some pounds too as a result which isn't good news.

I'm pretty sociable. I mean, not to toot my own horn, but toot toot! Tend to use comedy as an icebreaker, then go from there. Never really had a problem with it, even out and about, just interacting with people, I always hold my own.
Hell, I went to a party a couple of weeks ago with my housemates, knew one person there, left knowing everyone and being on friendly terms with 'em. I come in like a hurricane of wisecracks, and leave a lasting impression.

I whirl back and forth between ultra-social and anti-social. Can be pretty rough, on me and my friends/family.

You're the kind of person I end up being friends with, because I listen to your wisecracks, laugh, and build upon them, thus loosening me up. For me, I usually don't go out of my way to talk to people I don't know. However, if someone I don't know takes the time to talk to me, we'll get along really well. I'm a good conversationalist but a poor initiator.

I'm not the worst but I do struggle around big groups especially if I don't know many or any of them. I do have a few close friends I meet up with as much as I can and a few I meet up with that I used to work with as well. Generally I'm very quiet when I first meet people but I'm fine once I get to know people. It takes me a while to build up relationships in the work place for example.
As for the opposite sex...I'm terrible and have no confidence whatsoever. I can talk to women like a normal person and have a laugh but when it comes to stuff like flirting or reading signals I am the absolute worst. I'm convinced I've missed out on many possible relationships because of it.

They could've bought a better looking what I now assume to be hooker then!

I work in retail so I tend to be forced into appearing sociable most days, and as I'm single I do go out on Saturday nights if I'm not working weekends but it depends on what mood I'm in at the time on how social I am.
