I'm comfortable socially, but I know I'm an introvert because I'm better one-on-one, in small groups or with quieter activities, and I do need downtime to regroup. Sometimes I do envy people with more energy who are able to more easily jump into social situations, but I know if I did that it would make me crazy. I have some extrovert friends who appreciate my introvert nature, thankfully they understand if I need quieter activities or more downtime.

I was like that in my 20s.... I have always had fun with my friends from college challenging them to find a picture of me at any party. They can't because it doesn't exist. I did miss a lot of good stuff in college because I was bottled up inside myself.... Then a freaking miracle happen that helped me jump out of that mind set....I discovered beer !!! I know, I was lucky to find something so simple to snap out of it. It worked for me and always will be thankful for it

I'd much rather be an introvert, for the most part. I just wish our society wasn't so introvert exclusive.

I’m shy but Definitely Not Timid !

Oh yes. Quite often actually.

Yes! It sometimes feels like a disability, especially in the working world where corporations are run and geared towards extroverts. I try to love and accept that part of me, but if I was given a choice on being an introvert or an extrovert, I think life would be easier in many ways if I were an extrovert.

i'm okay one on one or in a small group. otherwise i'm timid.
