introverts,
12. That moment when you finally come home after a large party is like the first breath of air in a long time, and a great relief.
13. It can be funny, interesting, and a little bit sad when people get surprised that you have so many interests and hobbies. “Oh my god, I had no idea you did so much!” I mean, it’s not like I sit and stare at my ceiling when I am not with people. But your surprise entertains me.
14. Socializing can be draining, but an introvert can love spending time with an extrovert. Opposites do attract, and one fulfills the other. There are things an introvert cannot do without an extrovert, and vice versa.
To sum up, being an introvert is a great thing. Being an extrovert is also a great thing. The greatness lies within the fact that we hopefully live in a world where people can just be themselves. Being clever and successful is not about learning to separate the more capable (read: sociable) ones from the less capable ones. It’s about fully utilizing every resource, and more often than not, an introvert might just be the ace up society’s sleeve.
Embrace introverts, whether it is the one hiding inside you or someone in your social circle. You won’t miss out.

--- most ring true for me but not all, like i dont like to travel by myself, nor do i like to travel much anyway, unless i'm with my family, loved ones. I'm just not interested otherwise.

Yep
# Definitely not a team player. It just sucks the energy right out of me. If I'm part of any kind of team I just let the sociables do all the work and they don't complain either bc you just know it's how they shine. I love working alone and independently no matter what the task - I will do it better with no one meddling in my business.
# I enjoy being quiet as much as I enjoy speaking... when I actually have something to say.
# I love being around people without necesserily participating. Or at least not in the way most people define 'participation'.
# I don't have friends, I have acquaintances. Well that's a lie, I do have close friends but we don't see eachother but a few times a year and when we do it's like we've never been apart. It's how I like it. I just don't have the time and energy to maintain friendships, too much give and take & a huge distraction from my everyday life. Whether that's being introvert or just good ole fashion self-absorbed you decide.
# I've never had the chance to travel someplace alone where I don't know a single soul.. and altough I'd probably like it my introversion is mainly reserved to my everyday life. When I'm travelling or doing anything out of the ordinary I prefer to share that with someone. Remember that quote of whatshisname, "happiness only real when shared" .
# "An introvert can see adventure in the most ordinary settings."
Truer words never spoken. I don't get people who get bored. Even at a point in my life when I was at my most lonesome my days were packed with shit I wanted - no, needed - to do and if anything I never felt the time was enough. We're not talking about bungee jumping here, we're talking boring shit like discovering new books, movies, recipes, working out, DXP'ing, writing.
I had my day organized by how the different parts of the day felt lol. My favourite part was late afternoon. I hate mornings bc I just can't start anything until noon.
#2016 was an active year. I learned what it was like to be an extrovert.. kind of. Met a girl who absolutely couldn't not be doing shit or being alone. My absolute opposite. I tagged along and put all my other activities aside and adapted a new life style . I became addicted to living outside my head and those few days of a month I spent alone in my apartment I started feeling like the walls were closing in.
Eventually I also started feeling the anxiety creeping up on me bc being out there also meant putting my life and activities that matter to me on pause. It felt like nothing substantial came of living outside my head 24/7. But I realize that's only my perception cuz of how I'm originally wired: Nothing substantial came of living inside my head either, lol.

1. An introverted person can function better when working alone, than when working in a team. It’s not about being a “team player”, it’s about what can help them produce the best possible result. And working in a team, well…it’s is distracting.
Personally I like being in a team more. I can perfectly function fine alone, but it's more enjoyable to work with team. Though it does slow my time 8n completing a task down a large sum.
2. Being quiet does not mean “having nothing to say”. It means that one simply enjoys being quiet. As an introvert, I find some of my most satisfying moments when I am in a gathering and observe people talk, without saying something myself. Why don’t you speak? Because I am perfectly content absorbing the stimuli of my surroundings without producing any of my own.
I enjoy both actually. Some times I rather stay quiet and say nothing, other times I enjoy speaking and having center stage.
3. Going out in a coffee shop with your book, work, or music, and enjoying that perfect little state between sociability, but without interaction, is very, very satisfying.
I can agree with this. Though if I want to be alone I rather do it with no people around whatsoever, which is more times then not.
4. Introverts choose who they connect with very carefully. And when that connection has been made, it runs deep. Some people can be all depth, instead of breadth. And that is perfectly okay.
I agree with this. If I made my mind up I like someone I tend to stay that way no whiter what type of crazy they can dish up.
5. Rainy days at home are blessings. Period.
Agree 100%
6. A trip alone to a foreign country or another city is not scary. It’s an adventure, and not having anyone meddling with your planning is pretty liberating. The lone wolf does survive (if you got my reference, you are awesome).
Personally I would likely never go anywhere without other people lol. I do enjoy doing thing's alone, but much rather have others to enjoy it with.
7. You can never comprehend how some people can spend the entirety of their day together, even fresh lovers in their honeymoon phase. Space is healthy. Silence is necessary.
I can uderstand why they do more then not personally. I do things alone all the time, but truly wish I had a person connected on a deep level.
8. Time alone means time for introspection. While many people avoid looking at their problems, letting them fester and become toxic for them, an introvert can take the time to listen to themselves and perhaps find solutions.
I think of my problems 24/7 . I honestly wish I had more things to ditract me from them.
9. Being the observer in a group can actually be very beneficial. It gives one more chances of
operating in a behind-the-scenes way.
I disagree. Personally I will get distracted and never pay attention to what the person is teaching. I need hands on experience and the room to develop in my own personal way, and will never learn by watching. Perhaps watching and doing what they do at the same time, but never just watching.
10. Similarly, the observation of people can lead to better understanding them, which can make an introvert a very likeable person. Everyone wants an understanding confident who lets them speak out for a change, in a world where everyone has an opinion that can, unfortunately, be pushed on to you.
I can pretty much agree. I tend to know people by personality, and adapt to each person depending on that. I guess in a sense that means people do change who I am. But really I'm just doing that for them, and can chose not to at any given point
11. Spending less time socializing means coming up with so many more things to occupy your time! There is always a book to read, or a movie to watch, or a language to learn, or some volunteer work you can do, and so on. An introvert can see adventure in the most ordinary settings.
I agree with this 100%
I become more inspired by things I learn on my own rather then things people talk about.
