I can relate bro...

People who don't know me think am quiet... The people who do, actually wish I was.

Bottom Line: We introverts do more of thinking than talking... Add most of reading to it, you'll definitely loveyourself for who you are. We don't always get the girls like most of our opposite loud-mouthed folks but it's still cool, I can live with that.
Lol, the girl part got me grin, so true. And we like to observe things, sometimes instead of watching TV I can just sit at the balcony and watch how people behave, how children play, how people interact.

There was a day I was describing a place to friend and he was like, me wey dey this area I no even know say something like that dey there ooo. Well I like to observe my environment especially a place I'm just going for the first time. Should in case anything happens I'll know the best way to take off. grin

Thanks op.
I just love my own company,I prefer to chat online than discussing offline.

I just love my own company.
Being an introvert doesn't mean we don't talk, when we are with people we are comfortable with, we do.

Talking about shyness, I always try to avoid anything that will bring embarrassment.
All these just describe someone like me.

Sorry op but not all introverts are shy. Or not out spoken. I just derive energy from being alone

Even when we are with people we are not uncomfortable with or strangers.. some of us still talk.
I am very outspoken and very introverted

Well it depends though, sometimes when I'm with someone I'm just meeting it doesn't mean I won't talk, but I prefer the person to take the lead, like start the conversation while I respond and we get along but expect me to start talking naa you go old oo.

Today, January 2, is World Introvert Day. We are sharing with you these tips for overcoming shyness as an Introvert as written by Joel Annesley.

1. Avoid negative labels. Labels can build you up or destroy you; choose the label that empowers you instead of tears you down. Think Quietly Confident instead of Shy.

2. Look within. The key to finding your true self is to look within and to celebrate who you really are. Practice non-judgemental awareness, self-compassion and loving kindness for the beautiful person you are inside and the way you see the world.

3. Stop overthinking everything. Overthinking and shyness go hand-in-hand. Overthinking leads to indecisiveness, mental exhaustion and self-defeating, negative thoughts. The solution is to learn how to outsmart your overthinking.

4. Find your safe place. When you develop your safe environment, a place where you can be free to be vulnerable, you will have no need to overthink things. When you slowly expand this environment, your Quiet Confidence will also expand and grow.

5. Find your tribe. Spend time with those who build you up, and support and encourage you unconditionally to express yourself.

6. Find a creative outlet. Developing and expressing your creative passions can lead you to become a Subject Matter Expert, which will help you will naturally become more confident.

7. Develop positive body talk. Confidence doesn’t have to be verbal. Becoming aware of, and adjusting, your body language, posture and physical appearance can provide you with instant confidence.

The truth is that we are all introvert and extroverts at the same time. Something is responsible for your present mood.
Infact you're 100% correct. Human mood varies with some certain degree of extroverted and introverted lifestyle.It's regulate. Not always constant.

In summary, we are all introvert and extrovert combined together. Something is responsible for the present mood we exhibit.

don't mind them, shyness is not really an introvert feature, for me, i don't shy when the atmosphere interest me, i will talk nothing concern me.
I'm telling you.. I talk freely when I have with, even ask questions or contributions in any gathering but I'd have it at the back of my mind that recharging is important, I'd need hours of keeping quiet and thinking to have my energy back. grin

You don't think you could be an ambivert? wink wink

Not exactly..

"We invest a lot and require greater returns. Indeed. I can have a long, deep, intense conversation at a party and feel energized by it whereas an equal amount of time spent in shallow chit-chat just sucks the life out of me. Yet some quiet people, people who don't hold up their end of a conversation, also exhaust", this is the sum grin
