Re: Problems Only Introverts Will Understand by debosky(m): 11:39am On Sep 04, 2013
7, 8 and 12 apply quite frequently.

No need to get hung up on a list or being introverted for that matter - most people will experience a number of these over a period of time.

Identify those that most apply and seek ways to lessen negative impacts and reinforce the positive ones.

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?
Didnt say everyone who stays on the internet for long hours is automatically an introvert.. The point i ws trynna mke with dat last post is dat im always indoors reading or browsing because i prefare hving solitude to hanging out with friends or attending parties. Its ok if u dun agree but dun call my post silly :l

My demons I have to fight grin cheesy

When people hear me speak, they think I am so bold and confident whereas I am quacking in my boots and my heartbeat rate is extra fast.

I can stay with people all day without saying more than 3 sentences...

It's well anyways. It is all to the glory of God

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
Girl, sincerely everything you wrote up here are just about me with no exception. I think we are really birds of a feather. cheesy

One may not say for sure because there are other traits that goes along with being an introvert. But then, you can be an introvert and yet have a good sense of humour (I am one), but the level of your sociality more often than not flocks around just very few people around you...

When with an infinitesimally few, I don’t seem to be an introvert... Although it also depends on my mood.

oluamid: Lolz. This thread = The introvert's heaven.

ever since kobojunkie started a thread on the subject, its become a buzzword.

i wish people would just be original, jeez.

introvert threads get opened every few weeks, simply because folks are trying to suck up.

true introverts do not minimize the importance of having social skills even if they dont always show theirs.

there should just be balance, that's all.
