    Antisocial means being hostile to society, not just being uncomfortable with socializing. Many people assume antisocial means being shy or introverted because the it’s a reasonable conclusion from the two parts of the word, but it really means hostile to others. Especially in a medical context where Antisocial personality disorder is the proper title for Sociopathy.
