7: just because theyre not walking around with a big grin on their face all the time doesnt theyre miserable (they might be but not inherently. It just means theyre not as outwardly-excitable as other people. Just because their countenance and overall body language dont look entertaining to you (not that its their sole mission in life to entertain strangers) doesnt mean something is wrong with them by default.
8. If theyre wearing headphones around you, theyre not being aloof, rude or not listening (unless they actually have a reason to be interacting with you at that moment. Theyre just trying to go about their day-to-day business without being disturbed by other people (usually people they dont even know that well, and vice-versa. Theyll come out of their shells if and when they want bur dont think youre entitled to their vis-a-vis social presence. Learn to respect peoples personal space and let people be when you dont know them extremely well. Family, close friends, aunties (dare-I-say it) and tight acquaintances can buss-up whenever but where other people are concerned its more likely to be viewed as a disrespectful intrusion of their space. You can acknowledge someones presence in a friendly way (by smiling) without roping them into unnecessary small talk thats really quite uncomfortable (and annoying) for most reserved folk.
9. Being a social introvert is not the same thing as having autism, social anxiety, C/PTSD or anxious-avoidant depression. Its very possible for anyone of any personality type to have those conditions (absolutely) and everyones on some sort of spectrum in one way or the other anyhow but theyre not synonymous with a merely above-average social reticence. A common mistake people make is synonymising and conflating them by default. The result is a lot of normal introverts feeling very misunderstood indeed (and theyre very aware, often painfully-so, of how theyre perceived, even if they dont say anything.

Thing I want to tell all extroverts:
Hurt us
maybe then only we will start working on ourselves and finally realizing that going out and taking to people and making friends, making connections is great rather than siting in my room playing video games all day, DMing girls who don't reply and being a pu$$y a$$ crying and going on a downward spiral and questioning that why anyone doesn't love me.
I was once an introvert. I was okay with it. Until I wasnt.
And It has been 3 years since that day I HAPPY being an extrovert, I changed my whole personality and I have good friends and a lovely girl. Life is really beautiful.
Yeah, not sugar coating anything cuz i want this to be a wake up call. No matter you are a girl or a boy. WAKE UP.
You should love life. There are beautiful amazing people out there. Start talking to them. I have learnt so much from talking to girls, about how to improve myself. And, yeah, life's good. God is good.
Whoever read this, I love you human. WAKE UP.
There will be days where you'll feel to give up but that's the moment when you shouldn't. BREAK THE HABIT

many people treat me being an introvert as something that needs to fixed. many people tell me i need to be more outgoing. they tell me this and still exclude me because they think i dont want to do anything.
the day after my school dance my friend was telling her other friends about how they were the only ones who wanted to dance with her when she asked. I was like hey you never asked me. apparently she assumed i didnt want to dance. but what else would i do? that's why i came to the dance in the first place. btw my friend is also an introvert.
it's not that us introverts dont want to hang out. being around other people can drain our energy and being alone charges our energy. it all comes down to how energized we feel.
thank you for bringing up some of these points in the video

Guys this is for me how you can tell an Introverted Person. Introverts. the real ones. are Reserved most of the time BUT if someone shows interest in our hobbies or passion then we can be very social. still though it drains our energy after conversations. Introverts barely goes to a party cause why would you when you could just enjoy being alone watching entertainment or reading if you're into it and playing video games with the boys while at home.
And the most crucial part is that not all introverts are Smart and Self-aware. but still most can still have some sort of awareness but not as much as you think.

My Best friend and her Family are Extroverts.
Its so difficult.
The family consists of 5 people in total. every day they get more visits from people. That is too much for me. And then every day there is drama.
People always look for me as uninteresting and boring simply because I have nothing to tell. I'm always pushed into things.
Behind my back, I'm described as weird because I'm a Introvert.
That hurts so much.

What I always get as a comment is What's wrong with you? Even if I say nothing is wrong, they don't believe me. Extroverts are a pain in the ass to an introvert! I enjoy time out in the real world, but at my own pace. If it gets to be too much, I can dial down the excitement, enough to cope with the stimulus. But my friends look at me with disbelief when I want to end it. Again, I hear from them What's wrong with you?

I didnt learn I was an introvert until about 5-6 years ago when my pastor sent me the 16Personalities wuiz. I also didnt realize I probably had ADHD with inattentive presentation. Sure would have helped to know sooner but when I was growing up people didnt know about stuff like that. When my FIL took my MIL to the doctor about her depression the doc told my FIL to take her home and get her pregnant! What an idiot!

Your so wright. I love being alone. And it's so much harder to be with narcistic people. They really can make me mad.
I don't like to be told everytime the same bad thing. There is always something wrong with me! That drains me like instant.
And then these people are mad that I want to talk about it and then they say I'm getting loud. That is a bond breaker and the hardest for us to be around

On my graduation day in front of all students, my teacher told me that I'm being too quiet and had to be sociable. Then I just smiled but inside I hate myself for being introverted. My friends always ask me why are you so quiet. I don't know why I am so quiet. People always trying to fix me. But it's just my personality, it's just me.
Sorry for my English

My struggles actually. Most people say I am quite but in actual, I am just observing how people spend their energy while talking or making any noise and what topics do they talk about, is it interesting? I just need them to give me time until I am ready to speak and share my thoughts and energy too. They dont understand me so I just have to understand them.

Frankly, one of my biggest struggles is one of the things I want most. I really want someone to like me for who I am without trying to shape me into what they want me to be. Everyone who even remotely likes me right now wants me to fit into their standards, and I just want even just one person to like who I am now, even if what I am isn't much.

Yes as an introvert Im appalled at the fake personality shield the extroverts wrap around themselves as a shield! Its so sad seeing them do that and the energy they use to do that leads to animosity towards us! Very sad really because being a genuine what you see is what u get person shouldnt mean you get treated nastily

When I get tired at a social gathering I hate it when people start asking, But why are you leaving? or Stay a little longer! I get that people have good intentions, but I should be able to leave whenever I feel like it without people trying to pressure me to stay. I don't know if anyone else has been in this situation.

Back before introvert extrovert was known. The attitude towards we introverts used to be: You're not talking to us because you think you're better than us? During those days I didn't even know why I was the way I was. Now if I meet a person that I click with I can talk with that person as I have known them for years.

So very thankful that my girlfriend is also an introvert. We can both talk for hours, long into the night, but we can also sit together, reading or whatever on our own, in companionable silence, and not say anything for hours at a time. Peaceful.

YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF THAT HOUSE MORE. This is what I get and people look down on because I don't, they think I am depressed, and in some ways I am, I am 71 just lost my husband, the only person in the world who truly understood me. But I am okay.

The most freaking annoying thing is that people think im shy because im quiet.
when someone come to me and say hi someone nearby would say dont bother her, shes shy!
and at that moment i just want to punch someone in the face (:

Ppl always tell introverts to talk more and get out of their comfort zone.
No one tells the extroverts to shut up and make the zone comfortable.

I try to be more social from time to time in order to come out of my shell a bit, but my flight response kicks in the second something unexpected happens, or if I run out of things to talk about.

Exactly shout out to every introvert out there who feels left out and alone so what if we're alone doesnt mean we don't want to socialize and vice versa you don't have to be so extreme

I'm not exactly the complete introvert type, as I kind of see myself as an ambivert, just more on the extrovert side somehow, but I'll definitely be taking note of this myself: )
