Are you an introvert or an extrovert?

What do you think are some traits or personality features that you have that make you an introvert or extrovert? Also, what do you wish those of the opposite personality type would understand about your personality type - for example, if you're an introvert, what do you wish more extroverts would understand about your personality type?

I've always been and still am an introvert ... I always prefer deeper, meaningful conversations rather than "small talk" and by "small", I mean that the conversation is often shallow and meaningless in that it doesn't go anywhere and often just consists of "Hi" and "bye" and maybe a few one-word or even one-syllable replies back and forth. That just doesn't do it for me ... cool

I've never been comfortable in large Lollapalooza mob crowds, but certain 1-1 situations where I feel like I'm put "on the spot" aren't comfortable for me, either.

One thing I wish some extroverts would understand is that it's not that I don't like being around people at all or that I don't like people or that I'm unapproachable ... it's that I look at life and my world at a deeper level. smiley

Also ... I don't get bored on long trips because I like to read and daydream! blush

I am introvert. I preffer deep talk rather than shallow or casual ones. It takes trust and time for me to form a friendship with a person.And I preffer a few trusted friends than groups. I love to talk with people, who can be my true friends, and who understands me as well.Yeah, i even do day dream, love to read books and listen musicsmiley.

I feel, how extroverts are there, we introverts exist as well. People must respect each one and should not impose there ideas on us.Like, often we introverts get to here " Speak, open up", but its that, we need to build trust in someone and then only we can feel free to share things with them.We introverts even process ideas same way like anyone, but we need time to speak. I feel people must know this and should not label us. For work, and things, i have to speak up as well and its fine with me.I feel introverts aint coward, we love to speak and put forward our views. All is we need a bit time.

@niceDaisy36 Yay thank you so much for tagging me . I am a hard core introvert . I like having meaningful and profound conversations with someone . However, I have kind of always seen me being introvert as a shortcoming . I wish I was an extrovert . I would then have so many friends maybe , perhaps even better personality . Anyways, it is what it is . Thanks for reading ❤️.

@niceDaisy36

Thanks for the tag 🌸

I am mostly moody type of person I guess .

Really don't know where I fit in better, introvert or extrovert. I don't find it difficult to make new relationships.but I prefer small groups of friends. Like to attend parties but not center of attraction. No issues while talking to people .

You tell me.what think?

Introvert, but I can be extroverted if I really like the person that I open up to.

I am an introvert. I find being in large groups of people exhausting. I like to have time alone to relax and recharge. Its not that I dont enjoy being around other people, but Id much rather be with one or two close friends than at a party with a bunch of people I dont know. I tend to be very quiet and observant until I get to know people better. Then I am more open and talkative.

Definitely an introvert. I wish they'd know that, by the time I say "I need some alone time" I've reached critical mass. I'm not mad, I'm just completely overwhelmed
