Do you think Introverts on average do or do not like egotists, braggers etc.
My thought is that because we spend more time on our own, we have more opportunities to reflect on our own and others' behavior. We're more likely to recognize boneheaded-ness in others and to try to avoid emulating it. My stereotype of extroverts is they spend more time focused on others, so they may not take the time to reflect on what other people do. But that's my naive assumption.
I think that is a very good answer.
@DeeWoman I agree, good answer
Could it be reasonable to assume that an extrovert's stereotype of us is that we're all people who won't move out of our comfort zones and who refuse to accept people who are different from themselves?
@Chippie That's probably their stereotype, but they haven't paid enough attention to us to understand who we really are.?
I'm an introvert. I don't like egotists or braggers. But, to be honest, I'm a misanthrope, so there are lots of people I don't care for.
just looked that word up. that must be the best explanation for where my mind goes when I meet new people. It's always: (in my mind) fuck you and your name that I will not remember.
I certainly don't but you don't have to be an introvert to not like egoists or braggarts. In fact, in a way, it is easier to tolerate them if you an introvert because you simply have no desire to engage with them or give them any attention. Whereas an extrovert, or even more so a fellow egoist/braggart, is far more likely to engage and clash with them. It can be like two rams colliding.
Hmm....what POTUS does this remind me of?
I don't know anybody that does like those traits. What I do think is that introverts are less likely to exhibit such tendencies. Not just because we are less desirous of an audience in the first place, but we can see how broken those people are. To have such scant sense of self-worth that one requires constant praise from others is a huge burden that most introverts are spared.
I personally don’t like those traits, but outside of work and family, I don’t know many people...
