I have been on this site about two and a half years now. I used to think I was an introvert. After reading many post by introverts on here I don’t think I am. I am a quiet person, but I like being around and doing things with others. Yes there are people I meet and don’t care to see again, but I don’t want to live in a cave.
This is not criticism of the introverts, just realizing I am not one.
Yes! Full spectrum of labels around here. Amazingly refreshing
You may not be, but I don't think living a completely isolated life is the only determining factor.
I would consider it the extreme of introversion, while the other end of the scale - extroversion - would be someone who avoids being alone at all costs because they need people to center themselves, or to invigorate themselves. There are people all along this spectrum. Perhaps you're closer to the middle, and are an ambivert?
Ambivert….! Learn something new every day
There's more to being an introvert than just wanting to be alone all the time. I don't necessarily want to live in a cave either. I can socialize just fine, I just need time to recharge afterward. I also like my me time. It's more of a spectrum than a check box.
Exactly. I think we find too much stimuli exhausting... noisy restaurants, group chat, etc. Need time alone to recharge.
@TheoryNumber3 I seldom find external stimuli exhausting, but I do like some down time for recharging.
