adeaugustus: When there is power supply, I spend weeks indoor, I don't care but then again you have people saying "hi" on Facebook, so I had to deactivate my Facebook account! We get to talk only when I want.

And when PHCN starts their bull.s.hit, I do ensure that I have 3 unread novels in my shelf, reading until they get back to their senses.

But am concerned! Some guys in department keep saying am never gonna have a GF if I don't start going out! They said I won't be able to ask a girl out if I don't know how to go about it now....... Am 19 BTW, is that true?

When i started uni, i was always so quiet, that at the end of year 1, we had something in school for my department, i attended and some people were like, 'are you in this department'?? I dont know you o, etc, i had to change, i know i catch my type of fun online and while reading books, but i had to sacrifice some of my time to establish relationships, like, after a lecture, instead of immediately entering NL.c0m or reading a novel, i'll try and chat someone up, or move to a gathering and gist with them, at first it was forced, but i did it, and it got me some very outgoing friends that helped me come out from my ''shell'', bottom line's that we should all try and sacrifice some quality novel time, for a little outdoor activity, thats what helped me sha.....and for the guy asking if he'll get a babe, chill, you'll be shocked to know that some babes really like shy guys...@OP, thanks much for this thread

Uchechrist06: It is just as if u knw me pretty well before writting this. Pls, is there a away i can change this cos is making me look awkward sometimes and i have tried changing but seem i only succeed in compounding my problem. Pls possible solution....add me on whatsapp: 08038767672 or 2go uchechris06. God bless 4 anticipated gud advice.

You can't change your temperament, but can only be redeemed. Once a choleric is always a choleric, the thing there is that, if he becomes spiritual, it takes advantage of his shortcomings, yet it doesn't change the fact that he is a choleric. It might be hidden at times, but other times it can be as visible as day light.

Don't fight to change you, only work to make you better. In other words, if you become a redeemed melancholy, you will be able to take advantage of your vices as a melancholy but then it won't take away your melancholic nature.

The good thing about knowing your temperament is that, it enables you to be able to figure out people's own. And thereby gives you a better way of relating with people. If you know yours and are able to know people's own when you come across them, it enables you to not tread on their bad sides so as not to have problems with them... For over a decade that I got to know my temperament and my personality type, I have never had any issue whatsoever with anyone. You know why? Because I know my limit and I know people's limits too and try not to over step my bounds. Even when someone offends me, I try to consider the person' s temperament and personality in responding cause I understand their strengths and weaknesses.

Like I stated, just get yourself redeemed and don't bother about changing because it won't work.

Re: Problems Only Introverts Will Understand by dmcdad: 9:49am On Sep 04, 2013

Vanneni: Good morning. I know one could also be a combination of 3 or even all 4 temperament types. I don't know anything about eneagram but would begin reading about it almost immediately.

Good morning. I hope you had a splendid night rest. Please do that asap, you would be glad you did. Eneagram talks about the nine personalities of life. I am type 1, which is the perfectionist otherwise known as the reformer.

You are right. The thing about me for instance is that, if you consider the way I appear, you would consider me as a pure extrovert, a choleric to be precise. Because I appear very bold and confident at all times. If you hear me speak, you will know that I command respect and oozing too much confidence. Yet, it only takes those who have known me well to know that deep inside of me, I am very shy but it doesn't turn out to be timidity.

If you wanna really know me as shy, it's when I blush. I blush a lot. Sometimes guys complain why I blush when having a convo with em... You know, they will like "guy na me you dey blush for?" that's where my shyness really brings out it's ugly head.

Like I stated earlier on, if you are a redeemed melancholy then some of your aforementioned will not really be a problem. Like myself I crack jokes and all, yet I still try to fight a lot about me though.

I get u perfectly . I appear so cinfident dat evn my close friends dont blve im an introvert even when they complain dat i hardly keep in touch. Im very opinionated so i appear confident and outspoken and when i shy away frm socialising or conversations pple mistaken me for a snob but deep down im a reali nice person but jx a lil shy to start convos. I reali cant describe my temprament cz it seems only my family blves im an introvert since im always in my room n hardly mingle at family gatherings. But i gues im not an extreme introvert since im very open around pple im comfortable arnd

I wudnt call myself an introvert but sadly the whole society thinks so, all these points apply to my case. I laughed my posterior off recently when my friend told me recently that his dad thot I was Creepy being always to myself and all that.

lool . Sweetheart all the 15 problems i stated up there are actually personal problems i go through and thot i'd share on NL. But ur not entirely wrong. I can be an extrovert when im around people im comfortable wiith or pple who dont make me feel uneasy
but fact is i am my bestest company and i dont hv issues being alone or stayin indoors as long as i got tv,fon,movies,gossip girl,internet and exciting novels

Your list is very silly dear.

Besides, this narcissism over introversion is getting too much, people should try to think out of the box occasionally instead of always doing simon says.

If i go over your op one at a time, you'll figure out why most of what you posted is false.

For example, you're saying only introverts are on the internet for long periods of time?
