Introverts...the most misunderstood beings on the planet even though they have contributed immensely to the progress of mankind (great scientists, musicians, inventors etc).
If you need someone who will think outside the box by reflex, you'll most likely find that among the introverts.

Nothing wrong with being an introvert.

It is your nature and you did not choose to be made that way. But the problem is that the world prefers and celebrates extroversion.

One thing however is that both are needed to create balance in the human society.
Look at a picture of both personalities.

The extrovert is an outgoing person who is excited by being among/around people, he/she is easily bored when there is no activity to engage in. Yeah, he's got lots of energy to spare. He has no difficulty expressing his feelings. When he's angry, you know and when he's happy, it's also very obvious ('cos he can just throw a party to show his happiness). He may not be so much interested in deep intellectual talk (not in all cases though) but he likes small talks like discussing about the weather and things like that.

But the introvert is different. He is the quiet type who does most of his talking in his head. Yeah, he thinks a lot and likes to engage in deep and intellectual conversations. He can stay alone for days and not get bored. He is not so easy to 'read' when compared with the extrovert. You may not know when he's happy or sad because his default expression is
'blank'. He could be experiencing intense joy on the inside but the best he may do to show it would just be a smile (no, he won't go jumping up and down, screaming in excitement). He likes depth in whatever he does and as such prefers quality to quantity. He may be slow in doing stuff but when he is done, you would appreciate his work because of the quality of it.
He is very good at understanding people but unfortunately for him, the gesture is not reciprocated as he is often misunderstood by many.
He doesn't make friends and get attached to people easily but once he considers you his friend, you are most likely going be his friend for life. You can now see why he has to keep someone on his 'probation' list for some time before admitting that person into his circle of friends (which is usually small).
He likes to work from the background, away from the spotlight. He hates noise!
Cool music playing in the background and a book in hand is a perfect way for him to spend the day.
When he loves, he is usually very committed to the one he loves...

Hence, you see that both are needed to complement each other so don't ever entertain the thought that something is wrong with you because you're an introvert.
However, you can try making friends with a moderate extrovert and you will see how it will help you open up a little, just the same way an extrovert's excesses are curbed when she has an introverted friend. I say moderate extrovert because a highly extroverted friend can drive you nuts with too much stimulation (from talking and other activities peculiar to her nature).

Why do introverts complain about being an Introvert.


*sigh

I'm one and I dont see why I should make a fuss about it...

This thread is a great relief, I love being alone, can stay indoor for days without people knowing, walk around only in d night, I Don't waste words, if I Don't have something important or beneficial to say I keep my lips sealed. It's quite unfortunate that being an introvert in this part of The world hasn't been easy, people think ure arrogant and a snub, some even think u ve got some mental problems. Our extrovert colleagues Just need to study nd understand our solitary nature.

chalantmike:
point out one introvert who isnt arrogant and a snub?, must introverts dont know it or like to admit they're snubs and arrogant, it all buried beneath. Wait till someone totally talking nonsense or small talks around you and yhu so bored and irrigated at the same time, thats when the monster snub in you comes out to play.

Hopez456:
I think being irritated and uninterested in some other people's activities is not arrogance or being snobbish. Introverted people are The most humble set of people u can ever come across but people Don't know it.

idealized idea of ones self, introverts are prone to that. Id rather yhu scream at me, than form humble, while boiling inside. To the an introvert the world is alwayd watching them, so they have to comform.

False. An introvert gives no care to what you think.

'Forming humble' because they don't scream like lunatics?

Questionable logic.
