Against party being unfriendly (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

antisocial

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'unfriendly' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?

'against party' is the wordplay.
'against' becomes 'anti' (prefix meaning against).
'party' becomes 'social' (social can mean a party or event).
'anti'+'social'='ANTISOCIAL'

'being' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for antisocial that I've seen before include "Avoiding the company of others" , "Not getting on with others" , "Disruptive to the community" , "withdrawn" , "Reluctant to mix" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
