That's it... Give and take but not as easy as typed...
He likes to club all weekend and be with the happening crew, she prefers to go to the movies then come back home for some chit chats or with small group of friends.... That's each others definition of a perfect weekend ......

IMO if one feels too drained trying to get a balance, ask yourself if that's what you really want

In life, people date people who are very similar to them.

Op, I don't think it will work, because in the long run, both of them will be uncomfortable and probably disillusioned with the relationship.

There's no sin in trying though, as long as they both want to be together/make it work.

It depends...

I like introverted guys. The not-awkward but quiet, not-much-of-a-talker types that really only interface significantly with a mostly fixed set of people. I like the contrast of my extroversion with the relaxed exclusivity of what being with an introvert feels like. Plus, they understand space and downtime when you need it.

But, IME, the introvert never really understands our need for constant movement, a non-problem with other extroverts. It's as if they don't notice all what's out there and the passage of [our limited] time, and how interesting all the people and places; that there are all these things you want to do, and that you, in fact, have a whole bunch of it all planned out. And if you ask them to go to this or that thing with you, and they get all introverty and say they'd rather not, or can't, or won't, they don't understand how it is that you'll still go, inviting others. Basically, they don't seem to get that you're not an introvert.

I think the introvert strikes a balance for the extrovert, though not without challenges. The introvert golden age, however, can only come about when cloning technology becomes a precise science. grin

Hiya enlightenedsoul , I've been offline for a while , work has been tasking and my phone got stolen.

You seem not to understand the introvert deeply , we understand your need for the thrill and we don't have a problem with going out with you , we may however not mix "socially" at most gatherings preferring to just sit and observe or get lost in our thoughts. I don't see myself as an extreme introvert as I enjoy a little bit of the thrill but in most cases I'd just like to sit at home and read a book , watch a movie or play video games.

I don't think one can ever understand introverts deeply as a group, because, IME, no two seem alike, hence my cloning comment (due to the observation that even other introverts often appear to be a horrible match for each other, unless they find their clone). An extrovert is an extrovert, generally speaking, but introverts can be a whole smorgasbord of different traits, quirks, and motivations, and to varying degrees of introvertedness (on a whole other level from extroverts). They're like mystery-flavored candy; you never really know what you're getting. So you might go, but the next one would just as strongly not, and others still would land everywhere in between. Am I wrong?

Sorry to hear about your phone, Neo. That really sucks. You were missed. I wouldn't have guessed @ being an introvert, anyway.

You got it quite right , I've met introverts who I think were very weird and would find it hard to mingle in almost any social gathering. I consider myself an introvert cos I enjoy greatly my me time and would rather just sit at home, alone, rather than an outing with either family or friends. This doesn't affect how I react in a gathering , showing my very social side anywhere I go, still if given a choice I'd rather stay alone and indoors. Some introverts wouldn't even find it easy get along with someone similar to them so cloning may not even help.

I missed being online as well and reading from you. Hope you're good

Lol @ cloning might not even help. There's a spectrum of sorts, I guess. From the severely antisocial ones, and those who suffer from varying levels of social anxiety, to "preference" introverts that can amiably engage, but prefer not to most times. Some introverts can be very dichotomous as well. Like, my BF liked people in groups (training, and was gr8 at giving speeches and lectures, etc.), but didn't care for engaging those same individuals personally, one-on-one. As for me, I def need a private space I can get away to when need be, but unless I'm tired or need to recharge or think or whatever, I for sure prefer going out and doing things, and being around other people.

Oh, you haven't missed anything, just some BS. I'm relatively OK and I hope you are too. Take care.

Introvert are hardly understood by most people, especially in dating/relationship, but they are the best to have if you are patient to understand them. Introverts are very emotional beings.

I'll have you know that introverts are very good lovers, and they can adapt very quickly.

That girl would be lucky if she dated him.
