Gunnersaurus Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 I think I am classed as a introverted extrovert. As I like to be around people and that but can be shy. Funnily enough my dad is a extroverted introvert
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted November 6, 2022 Subscriber Posted November 6, 2022 Kind of both, but more of an introvert That's me, if I am in a crowd I tend to make people laugh with jokes or remarks but I feel more comfortable focusing on my inner thoughts and ideas, rather than what's happening externally.
Azeem Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 Ambivert. I like taking charge of things, being the leader, not shy to say what's on my mind, but I don't like socializing much and keep a distance with everyone. My friends often say I can be somewhat rude with the latter.
Rick Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 Always been an introvert, but I’ve become really terrible for keeping myself to myself in the last three or so years. So out of practice in social situations, that I don’t know what to say and not to say. Need to sort myself out. There is a woman in my office that I’ve exchanged looks and glances with for the last three weeks. As we were leaving work on Friday she tried making conversation with me “oh god, it’s so dark now” and instead of having a bit of small talk I awkwardly just said “It is a bit eh”. Honestly I don’t know if my issue really has much to do with being introvert but just had to get it off my chest.
nudge Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 Was always more on the introverted side, but I used to enjoy larger social gatherings and interactions with people quite a bit when I was younger, whereas these days I feel like most of the time, it's draining me out and I feel exhausted afterwards, especially when someone's babbling non-stop. Socialising with 2-3 people every once in a while without small talk is perfect, really.
Administrator Stan Posted November 6, 2022 Administrator Posted November 6, 2022 More towards introverted as time has gone on. Love my own space and time, and company. Also like to socialise and enjoy meeting up with friends, going to football etc. But sometimes I can't be arsed and would prefer to just stay at home.
Rab Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 Introvert. Being around people drains my energy quicker most of the time.
Bluewolf Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 Probably classed more as an Extrovert I would have thought but like others I am more than happy to just slip back in the shadows and keep my own company these days.. The older I get the happier I am to be away from the crowds and noise to be honest..

Devil-Dick Willie Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 Myers brigs says 52% extrovert, but I definitely GET my energy from being alone and SPEND it being social. So i'm an introvert. But i also NEED and crave social interaction. I'm a very outgoing introvert.
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted November 7, 2022 Subscriber Posted November 7, 2022 Definitely an introvert. I think playing sports growing up helped me alot though so I am generally comfortable in gatherings but yeah as I got older it is more of a chore. Small groups I still like but big gatherings and parties I can feel a bit awkward at times especially if its my better halfs friends and their friends. Narrowing down friends throughout the years is nice though, You figure out pretty quickly whos worth your time as time becomes more precious.
