Astrology having existed since pre-historic times does not negate the fact that it is nothing but a pseudoscience. Astrology is a bunch of ancient nonsense and superstition which cannot stand the rigors of scientific inquiry. If you are a staunch believer of astrology in this age of science, then I daresay you're a superstitious bunch and a superstitious fellow is a fellow with low intellect, so there you go.

This doesn't have anything to do with Christianity. If you can show me one example of your personal reading that came to pass, then be prepared for me to present to you thousands of your personal reading that never came to pass. Wisdom is profitable my brother, learn to court wisdom.

Infact, wisdom fall on you. grin
I use my own personal experiences to tell the authenticity and fact of astrology. I don't need any other evidence than that!
You also have low intellect because you don't believe in a particular ideology yet try to force another to believe in yours. It shows you lack something very vital. Go figure! Keep feeling yourself because even fools think they are smarter than wise people. cool

On average, 75 year old has spent 25 years asleep, 5 years eating and 10 Years of doing other miscellaneous things that a total of 40 years wasted either you like it or not.

Most introverts lie to themselves that they find solace in their loneliness which I know it's a big lie which is why most introvert easily gets depressed and are not able to Overcome their emotions, like I said this life is too short to "come and go" and die heart attack due to depression

The funniest parts is when to introverts fall in love with each other, they will just be looking at each other like zombies waiting for who would make the first move. They hardly get a girlfriend even if they do it doesn't last which makes most of them find solace in masturbation, the worst of it all is that most of the female ones will
never reach orgasm, one of the best gift of life.

Even job self them no fit get because most employers will prefer to employ an extroverted person to an introvert which limit their chance of getting a good job.

In a short note, an introverted attitude is a curse which only the brave are able to break free except for deliverance from a pastor grin

Lol... I could I identify your pain points because all my life, that is what I have been going through. When it comes to friendships, an uncle whom I idolize made me realize that I was an "intellectual snob", meaning that I only relate with people who can match me pound for pound in my interests which happen to be quite obscure. Not that I deliberately choose obscure interests, rather, the things that excite me are a turn off to majority of people in my sphere.

Same uncle then advised me to fake it -- learn how to relate with everyone, and on everything in order to give them a sense of access to me because you know... no man is an island. If I continually rebuff people's attempt to connect with me, they will soon feel slighted and leave me alone. Meaning that the days when I actually need help, there might be no one around me to raise me up. So, these days, I try to relate with everyone who makes an attempt, feign interest in the things they like etc... let me not lie, it's actually exhausting but I've gotten better at faking it.

Don't know why I'm spilling all but the essence of what I am trying to say is: sometimes, you have to indulge those people and their boring topics or you may alienate people who really do care for you.

Soldier on dear. Noisy people are the most visible in the world, however, the power of quiet is what has brought civilization to it's current height. Take pride in your makeup as a quiet person because internal self-sufficiency -- not needing the outside world to feel good -- is a thing that the noisy ones amongst us will never experience.

Had to screen shot this...

Very real advice because one thing is certain, one cannot avoid these people but must constantly come in contact with them. So it is essential to know how to deal with them. ..but then, that was my problem...well, not until your advice.


Thank You...I indeed appreciate

I don't know how to keep friends, maximum of 3 months, I would be bored and tired, that their calls won't even move me. I don't miss people. Highly emotional and I trust people even at first sight.

You know, there's this thing called emotional intelligence. It's understanding why people behave the way they behave and knowing how to act in different situation. Why would you blame someone else for your actions? You said you are annoying, now you're suffering depression because of of them? You just admit having a personality flaw, work on yourself Bro.
...Why would anyone claim to be an introvert when they are not? Yes, some people don't truly understand their personality; some are just shy, some have low self confidence/esteem and so think they are introverted. it's not because there's a medal for it, its just because that's what they think they are.

See, I respect people's opinion but when I see outright display of ignorance and you no still wan dey your lane, I no fit just waka pass.
First, NO ONE said introversion was based on Self esteem/confidence
2). Again, i say, If you have low self esteem, it's not a factor of being introverted or not.
3).No, we are not all the same
4). Introversion or extroversion is basically about social relationships, self esteem however, is deeper than that.
You said everyone is the same, says a lot about your reasoning. No two people are completely the same. There are concepts and theories in life that I do not know how they work but that does not in way reduce the validity of those concepts and theories.
That you do not understand how something works does not mean it doesn't exist.
If you do not understand how a thing works, study and try to get it. It won't kill you.
