Examples of asocial in a Sentence

  1. Joan Didion:

    It is impossible to think of Howard Hughes without seeing the apparently bottomless gulf between what we say we want and what we do want, between what we officially admire and secretly desire, between, in the largest sense, the people we marry and the people we love. In a nation which increasingly appears to prize social virtues, Howard Hughes remains not merely antisocial but grandly, brilliantly, surpassingly, asocial. He is the last private man, the dream we no longer admit.

  2. John Kelly:

    Asocial is pretty much somebody that likes to be alone…they’re not hurting anybody, antisocial is when you strike out at society and have a lot of anger and resentment.
