I can relate to most things said here, same issues meeting a stranger, esp grls. Not that I can't b funny o, jst that u have to be a good talker to see that part. Dont contribute during meetings but when I'm alone, ideas jst fill my brain. I've heard girls say he's good looking (no b say I fine o), nice body, but too quiet. Some of my friends have told me to make more noise, or even fight nd I'm like ah, 4 gini?. Soo addicted to football manager on my lapi, its affecting me academically, though learning to control my urge. Though with my close friends I can argue eh, u won't believe he's dat shy introvert 3 Likes |

Chukzii: So you have issues meeting with new people or initiating a conversation and interacting with the opposite sex which majority of the introverts here can relate to. But the question is what are you doing to curtail this, i mean to be able to express yourself in the real world? |
Re: Introverts Lounge (Extroverts Pls Keep Off !!) by Olarewajub: 8:38pm On Aug 07, 2016 |
bukiii: You don't really have to feel bad about it. In our contemporary society everybody is expected to act as an introvert.. Just keep practicing eye contact even though it might seem weird at first.Things will eventually get into place with time. |
Re: Introverts Lounge (Extroverts Pls Keep Off !!) by Olarewajub: 8:39pm On Aug 07, 2016 |
Hey Guys!!! Happy to announce we're still on the eye contact challenge. Keep sharing your experiences and challenges. |

Hello gloryisaac Sorry your candidate did not clinge the first position, i beiieve he his a winner. Nice one, you really tried on the campaign thingy. will you like to get in to politics, if not now maybe in the future? |

drippingink3: First of all you're welcome to the lounge. Nice question you've got. I think the way to discover a fellow introvert is to see some one who behaves just like you do like being conservative. it's actually not difficult. For you to do this you must be conversant with all the types of temperament. |
Re: Introverts Lounge (Extroverts Pls Keep Off !!) by Nobody: 9:37pm On Aug 07, 2016 |
Olarewajub: Well, thanks a lot for your support, and other Intros who also supported him, i'm really grateful , But i doubt if i'm ever gonn' do this again, its quite stressful you know... The experience is invaluable though, and its one i wont forget. Thanks Guys 1 Like |

Olarewajub:because most of my problems was that I'm always thinking of the negative things people will say when I make comments in a group or among the opposite sex, I've got to understand that people are actually interested in what I hv to say and no one will beat me for saying something they don't agree with. I tell myself, calm down, think and let your mouth move 2 Likes |

Olarewajub: Thanks bro! I'll keep trying And I agree with you; every 'opportunity' to speak gives you a trail of experience that you can always consolidate on for future events. The earlier introverts come to terms with this learning curve; the better. Someday, or some how, the call to address a larger audience would start coming more out of necessity than persuasion. 1 Like |

I just found this, welcome me! I dunno why u choose to be an introvert cos I seems to be depriving myself of somethings yet I still enjoy being an introvert because it has earned me lotta respect and saved me from embarrassment. I have been to two different higher institutions yet I don't have a friend I can boast of.Though people who are closer to me (my nuclear family)would call me an extrovert cos I tends to talk more when I am at home. I am not shy neither outspoken. I have faced a crowd more than 20 people and I did wonderfully well but I find it difficult to initiate a conversation. I am a good lover.But making friends and keeping friends is my problem. 3 Likes |

Olarewajub: Wow!!! Theoretically, I can do it. But technically, I can't. I maintain eye contacts with my pals when talking. But if its with a stranger especially the opposite sex, I will rather look around or avoid eye contact, 'cause my heart will be skipping, or I start to utter mumbo-jumbo. Any trick to this? I actually need to take time to catch up on all I have missed...that could take days |

Many people will think you are proud cos you keep to yourself a lot. What they don't know is that you find it naturally difficult to flow with people... Tiz a cross! Morning Fellow Introvertz 1 Like |

Maintaining an eye contact shouldn't be a problem especially when you are confident even as an introvert. I make an effort to make eye contact once I am conversing though not all through it. I had such experience today though the person is a friend. I like taking up this challenge even when meeting somebody for the first time as it projects confidence and I don't think there is anybody that don't like a confident person. |

Aremu01:Same with me. In my place of work, people used to complain that I don't respond well when they greet me. But after saying good morning, I don't know what else to say and they took it for pride in me. Thank God, I now flow along with some after many months. It was then that they told me. |
Re: Introverts Lounge (Extroverts Pls Keep Off !!) by Aremu01(m): 9:32pm On Aug 09, 2016 |
Ameboperoo:It's good m not the only one that feels that way. What they don't know is that silently we are dying to be close n as open as possibly, but that's just not how we were wired Tiz well... Gotta make with it 3 Likes |
