Introverts vs Extroverts and the society standard

[arwen83]

I am both, its dependent on how I feel and the situation that I am

I'm an introvert. I'm very friendly and I like talking to people, but I need alone time or I feel overwhelmed/exhausted.

I found this, and while it may not be accurate for all introverts, or accurate for introverts all of the time, I think it's a pretty good visual description.

Yeah, I am an introvert too. I can talk people and at times need the company. But I need my alone time to recharge my batteries otherwise I can get really exhausted talking to people. I have heard some people are hybrids; extroverts on one hand and introverts one the other. When it comes to me, I am an introvert and if someone finds something extroverted about me, it is just me being human not being an extrovert. God bless.

I think I am both. naturally I am quite quiet and even on the shy side but I work with kids in churcj, I lead a service and for that reason can't be quiet and shy. I have families to welcome! I am also a registered nurse and again quiet and shy doesn't work. in a relationship I need someone who is both and can accept my silly noisey giggly side along with the side that would rather sit and read.

Might as well state the obvious. I'm... I'm... an introvert. *shudders* Excuse me while I go scrape my skin and and drink lots of fluids.

At the start of that comic, I saw the giant bubble and was getting ready to be offended. But as I scrolled down, I liked it more and more, and realized the author wasn't being insulting and actually gets introverts, lol. It was pretty accurate for me anyway.

This comic is the story of my life. Fortunately, most of my friends are introverts too, so, they understand.

I'm introverted too, and I share your feelings about feeling like I don't fit in.

I think girls.. or atleast most girls have 1 common thing that they want in a guy and that is... funny... usually in thier lists of qualities.. funny usually takes a top ranking.

That makes me feel like I'm not good enough for most girls.

I'm not a funny guy. I'm quiet, serious and think a lot. I can be goofy online.. but what good is that in the real world, where it counts. (sigh) I just avoid girls who are goofy and obviously extrovert now a days... I'm sorry this really does bother me.


It sucks but whatever I do notice there are girls that don't put that up on their lists so that helps.

Heh well, something interesting to think about. There is a girl where I work who is extremely extroverted and insane, but also geeky. Well its pretty obvious that she likes me. Maybe extroverts actually like introverts and vice versa. The whole opposites attract thing.

Whatever you are we're all people! I'm an introvert, but sometimes you cant stop me from talking! !!. To extroverts though, don't think we're cold and calculative just because we need a moment to ourselves to think things thorough again and re energize! ! lmbo!.!
