This kind of living is dangerous to your health. Cheerful life is an important food to our heart/soul. Please be friendly.

chronique: Is it me that is not communicating well or you're the one who doesn't understand me? Well,I'm not lonely. My biz also brings me in contact with people/strangers and I definitely do not lack social skills. However,if biz is not taking me out,I like to enjoy the quietness of my crib. All your concerns are well covere and taken care of. Being an introvert does not necessarily mean you do not go out or mix with people. It's more about how you relate with them. It's more about you picking a quiet spot in public and having quiet convos with individuals as opposed to extroverts who probably jump around and shout and mingle with everybody. It's just a thing of choice and it's not a bad thing.

ganase2: In this age and time, being an introvert does not seem to be what anyone easily admits to....readily, everyone is trying to prove they have the requisite social skills of an extrovert.

Between, here are funny but real reasons why you just might be an introvert...do read on!

1. You think before you talk and check before you chat
Sort of the right thing to do huh?...You have a consistently running internal monologue that screens every word before it drops from your mouth. Not a fast speaker there...You screen your chats too severally, before you send them...lol.

2. You go to parties -– but not to meet people.
Nooo...you may not necessarily be hanging out alone...but meeting new people is rarely the goal of attending a party. You simply get in your safe harbour- looking out for your friends and hanging out with them.

3. Great speaker, fearful mingler
You may not be shy...infact, you can give a great speech in front of 500 people but mingling with them one-on-one afterwards is a huge problem.

4. You hate idle chatter
You can be in a room with room mates with them discussing on a topic without necessarily making a contribution...you hate small talk not because you hate people but because they seem meaningless to you.

5. You are self conscious
Since you are not doing most of the talking, you are doing most of the observing and hence, assume that everyone is observing you in the same way...judging the way you speak, your accent etc....whereas, they might not necessarily be doing so,

6. You like extreme sitting positions
When you have to sit at a bench, you don't sit in the middle because you don't like being surrounded by people on all sides. In church, you prefer the extreme rows of seats to the middle ones.

7. You dread audience participation
You prefer a talk or a lecture to a discussion or interaction. If you must be involved in the latter, you must have been informed earlier so that you can "compose yourself".

8. You've been accused severally of not keeping in touch
The funny part is that you cannot fathom why someone who called you three days back would call you and say something like; "You have forgotten me abi..."and you're like, "Are we supposed to be talking everyday"?....you also do not like midnight, except its utterly the last resort. For you, it's too much time to waste on "nonsense talk".
You screen all your calls and you may not pick up your phone even from people you like only to call them back as soon as you’re mentally prepared and have gathered the energy for the conversation.

9. You're a Writer
...a good one at that. Or sometimes, a poet. You prefer to put your ideas in writing than to speak them because the former gives you the opportunity to perfectly choose your words and structure your thoughts.

10. Friends made you and not the other way round
Check out the list of your closest and distant friends and you'd realize that they made more efforts at being your friend than you did at the initial stage before you settled into the friendship.

If you can boast of some of these qualities, then check again...against your initial judgement, you just might be an introvert!

slap1: I'm the friendliest, kindest and happiest guy I've ever met. I can give up my last bucks for a stranger. My only source of sadness now is Arsene Wenger.

shymexx: I exhibit everything you listed, however, I honestly don't think I'm an introvert. Because I also do a few things that extroverts do. Most people think I'm cocky/arrogant and self-centered. But I think I'm just eccentric and I live in my own world and, I do things my own way based on my mood and how comfortable I'm. You can add some attributes from my star sign to the equation! Hell yeah, I'm a complex S.O.B and I'm still trying to find the first mofo that would understand my personality.

Anyway, I think it's a little bit simplistic to put people in a box based on their personality. Everything depends on mood, experience and other miscellaneous things.

chronique: Well,in my case,I was more of an extrovert when I was much younger but as I grew older,I became an introvert and I like it that way. Nobody comes to my house to visit anyhow and if you must see me,you must call to say you're coming. You can be at my gate and knock all day and I won't answer you if I'm not expecting you. When you're tired,you'd go to your house. I hardly visit people and I love having my space. Moreover,I love being indoors and it hardly bores me. So long as I have internet access 24/7,I'm ok. I'd just spend my time reading stuffs online.
