Well, I'm an introvert, working as a graphic designer. I prefer working alone, but doesn't dislike working in a team either. I don't put much thought into showing off my skills so very often I get outspoken and underestimated. In parties or meetings, I just go to a corner space and enjoy my time. And yes I hate it when people ask me to socialize, go out and meet random people. Hey its not my fault that I find it difficult to understand what other people might be interested to talk and small talks make me feel guilty of not being good enough. It also irritates me if other party doesn't even care to initiate a conversation after me making an effort to keep them entertained. Its good knowing that I'm not alone.

Mr.
Im an introvert, and identify with most of these things. I also have a great imagination, which is very handy. If I had to pick between sitting in a room with my iPad or a book, or was given one hour to stay in solitary confinement where no one would judge me or listen to me I would choose the second one. I like to stare into space and contemplate a lot of things. Sometimes, I laugh randomly and people have no clue why, but thats because I make myself laugh by picturing something funny. I also like theatre and singing, but Im too shy to admit it. I love to read and write and imagine my own world. Being an introvert is awesome.

I don't know if I'm introvert or not. I can socialize well in large groups but only for maybe 20 minutes. Uno I can play well with about 2 to 5 people. I have good memory at times and so that comes in handy with chess or checkers. Although I'm not very good at either one of them. I also am learning German so that I can just use my alone time productively. Boy do I like camping. Especially in large groups of people. Although I don't talk, I just listen and laugh. Canoeing is nice too. Only with atleast 1 person with me. Hearing the water swish and watching the hawks fly. So peaceful. So can enjoy tell me what I am?

If I am comfortable with someone or a group, I can talk all day to them about anything. I don't get uncomfortable about very many topics mainly because when I trust someone, I trust they will have an open dialogue with me. When I don't trust someone I no longer find conversing with them interesting or fun, and therefore I tend to totally shut them out of my life, whether its accidental or on purpose. I have an endless need to talk deeply about topics I love, but too few people who both enjoy the same topic and are people I trust.

I'm in the 98th percentile for introversion, which makes me a super introvert. I'm 19 and I haven't had any real friends since I was like 12, and I spent the last 2 years of high school studying from home and not interacting with other human beings besides my own family occasionally. But I can attest that even I get lonely sometimes. Even extreme introverts can't live in complete isolation without occasionally getting lonely and wanting to interact with another person.

I've recently been wondering whether I am an introvert or an extrovert, but it's clear to me now that I am an introvert. Although I do love social interactions, I noticed that I do get drained around crowds, or around people I am not close with. Also, I have a habit of internalizing things, planning it in my head, and then after thinking about it, I do it. This video is very helpful, thank you.

Yes! So much! 3/4s I feel alone because expressing without even listening to what I am saying even when I telling them who I am or trying give my answer! Its so frustrating it makes not want to talk to anyone period. I try my best to keep to myself I didnt know what introvert was til someone brought to my attention And being a Virgo doesnt help. Counseling doesnt help either

I'm a social introvert because I love sports and anime and comics and art and I do get tired when it comes to talking to people and I love reading and writing and martial arts and I'm also pretty shy sometimes and and also very very stubborn and when I do get mad I lose my temper but I go to my room if I get upset and then I just relax or watch cartoons which is pretty fun.

I find the Games I tend to play are normally. Single player story vases games. I don't play anything online. And rarely co op. I find I do better in games on my own rather then having anyone with me regardless of how well I know them. I any place games for relaxing line watch a movie, I don't play competive.

Wow the first one is totally true I need time to recharge. I thought it was a mental illness that I had. Number 4 also is true for me, I have 3 really good friends, and quality is better than quantity for sure! But I admit I don't initiate conversations with new people for that same reason - quality>quantity

I had to laugh when I saw how introverts I prefer the flower picture over the face one in point 2. I am a lifetime introvert and was reminded that when I was a child, my mother observed that I would stop to smell each flower on my way to school. Needless to say, I was often late for school!

I'm an ambivert. I resonate with both. I think deep down I was always an introvert but my mother pushed me to be an extrovert like my father at a young age so I became an ambivert. I'm happy she did that because I get the advantages of both personality types.

My teacher always tells me to speak more. I am already succesful in school without speaking but she always tells me that I need to speak and socialize with my classmates. It is so bad
(Sorry if I made any grammar mistakes. English isn't my first language)

I was pretty sure I am introvert.
Now I am pretty sure I am ambivert.
Imagine, that on the vert spectrum we cut the extrovert part of it and the two ends are just ambi and intro. I am in the middle of THIS.

I think Corona virus lockdown is being secretly enjoyed only by introverts. How many introverts agree with me? During this period, no one can force us to socialize or attend parties.
