1. We hate unannounced visitors with ion.

2. People think we're boring, when we can be a lot fun when we're with the people we're close to.

3. Socializing is another challenge.

4. We like giving people the impression that we're dumb, when we're a lot more smarter than they think.

5. We talk less and listen more.

6. Sometimes we would just look at you and argue with you with our thoughts without saying a single word.

7. There are also times where we just want to be alone, not because we're upset, but because we just feel like it.

8. We're sensitive to noise.

9. We can be more active online than in real life.

10. We're lovers and not haters.

Introverts get two types. The emotional and vengeful melancholic and the peaceful unemotional phlegmatic

Growing up in a world that often values the loudest voices, introversion can be misunderstood

It’s not about being anti-social or shy; it’s about how we recharge our mental and emotional energy

The ability to listen, to observe, to reflect. These are the gifts of introversion. We see the world in layers, in depth. We listen not just to respond, but to understand. We reflect on experiences, extracting wisdom from even the simplest moments.

For someone who is outspoken and expressive, it is [for lack of the perfect word] dangerous to always have someone with those traits around you.

I'm of the opinion that introverts/less expressive/non expressive people deserve their kind.

They werent born that way. They were molded into this right from their pre-puberty years(A different background would have made them a different person entirely)

More often that not, they are mostly people that grew up in a religious or a more modest/conservative home with strict parenting well into their early 20s


I can argue till the end of time that being an introvert is the ultimate version of any human. I struggle to understand whats fun and lively about being the opposite

How is it dangerous though? I am expressive, I just don't like the idea of going back and forth with someone... If I talk to you about something and you prove to be stubborn, I'll just keep quiet and listen to you.

Oga they are born that way. Even in childhood you will notice that some children cry more and talk more while some children even babies barely cry.

this perfectly describe me especially number 9, I prefer being online to talking to people.

Infact I put on earpiece/headset even when I am not listening to music so people won't want to talk to me

I like my privacy n I even hate crowd n I don't like taking pictures too.

D picture on my FB page have been there for d past 6 years

your second paragraph is true to some extent, though I believe parental traits also add to it

We are just 2 in d house n I realize my sister took after my dad in being an extrovert n I am d same version of my mom

Introvert are highly calculative n very intelligent n they mostly have foresight I back then my dad will want to embark on any project n he will jokingly say

" Let's consult the witch in our house to tell us what will happen n problem we will face"

N truly my mom will tell him d fact but guess what

My papa no go still listen to advice

You can only relate if you're one. Those among us who aspire to go up usually try to leave that shell though as socializing is one of the most important tool for success or greatness in today's world, but we still maintain our introversion in most cases.


Anyway, if you care to make some dollar cash as a side hustle. Check my siggy, profile, and learn about ST, Cbex. It's about the only thing I can guarantee helps people get daily 10k+ lately
