I think it's fucking common with capricorn and January isn't an exception.
Introverts gave capability of been extremely smart and brilliant. While others are familiarizing and introvert is studying the environment, individual and many other things and extrovert careless about.

Amyyy2020:
and what happens if u guys give birth to a very sensitive child? Lil one will grow up thinking he/she is not loved. that doesnt look good, does it?

kingkakaone:
You made a lot of senses here friend, but I believe I'll do all to make sure my child gets the attention he/she desires.
I will try to work on that.

Thanks for the heads up.

Lol.. The call thing am really improving... But you see the aspect of chatting, it's getting worse.. This days my close friends including my sister sends me email if they want to send an emergency message.. Nd that's because that is the only app with enabled notifications on my phone(I enabled just my email app cos of work and somethings I run online)

But like u rightly advised, I'll be consciously working to improve me

Gleez:
You just described me perfectly. We share same birth month as well.

destinyy23:
Same here. I'm fucking honest. January too. Can stay indoors for weeks without stepping out. Used to be so shy and can't talk in the crowd but have seriously worked on that aspect. I now attend and present at conferences to the glory of God.

Gleez:
Wow! It's amazing how you've been able to completely transform your mind and character. Care to share how you worked on improving yourself? How long did it take? About the "honesty" part, how do you cope with it when you find yourself among people who are dishonest?

I've always pictured myself, through my mind's eye addressing people at conferences, but in reality I barely talk much. I often feel choked up each time I find myself in a crowded place. Lol!

Really interested in knowing what steps you took in overcoming shyness.

destinyy23:
My dear, I won't say it's completely my effort, God played the bigger role. I'm someone who pray and trust God a lot so that helped. After my first degree, I had a first class and it really got me bothered. I was wondering, what would people say about a first class graduate who can't speak boldly in public? What if I get a lecturing job? How do I cope? So during NYSC, I made it a duty to always speak whenever we had a gathering, gradually, I began participating actively at CDS. I served in a university and sometimes, I had to take students through lab sessions. Fast forward after service, I applied for MSc, got the admission and first thing I did was join the board of lectors (I'm catholic and board of lectors read before the congregations) and also became active at fellowships, so, l'm sometimes called upon to moderate the fellowship or to lead praises & worship. All these helped. I became a class representative too, it's my duty to coordinate the postgraduate students and relate with lecturers too on their behalf I started looking out for conferences and submitted my papers. I never imagined I could talk so well before a large crowd. About the honesty part, it still scares me cos Nigeria is dominated by lots of dishonest people and they would see you as 'not smart enough'. cos you stand for the truth. It's left for you to either stand out of the crowd or compromise your standards to be like the majority. As for me, I chose the former. Do have a beautiful day.

Gleez:
Highly impressive and inspiring! It shows you possess strong leadership qualities and the ability to achieve set goals regardless of the challenges you may face. I'm Catholic as well, so I understand the role of board of lectors.

Quite an alluring personality you've got. Keep soaring high. Hope you'll make a first class again, in your master's program. All the best!

destinyy23:
Thanks dear, I'm rounding off my Masters and my first class is sure by his grace. I wish you the very best as you strive to improve yourself in all areas. God bless

Gleez:
Thank you and congrats in advance.

I am an introvert, the behavioural trait Tim Lahaye referred to as ' Phlegmatic' in his best seller: Why you act the way you do.

I don't like crowded places as such. The church is the only social place I go to. I've been attending my church since I was a baby, I still haven't grown comfortable to stay back and gist after the service, despite the fact that I lead the praise worship many Sundays, I guess it's different when I'm on stage.

I don't have friends, I only have friendly colleagues

I get tired of talking with them easily. Even if I saw you last ten years ago, after the initial ecstasy, I fizzle out.

I write better than I talk.

I am not afraid of staying indoors. I don't like leaving the confines of my house. There are times I don't step out of our flat for 3 days let alone getting to the gate,

I have more than 20 games on my phone, they are my companion anywhere.

I am honest and considerate in dealing with people, I think I am intelligent too, I pay attention to details and I expect everyone to be a perfectionist like me.

In the midst of all these me, myself and I, I am married to a sanguine par excellence! My husband is a man about town, happy-go-lucky and can gist for Africa. I let loose my guard only when I'm with him. Invariably, I become a chatterbox only when I'm around him, after him no more!

Enoff said I guess.

Lemme guess it's either she is not into you or still in the "let-him-chase-me" phase....
When you love, you do things out of your way....
The guy that has been on my case for three months now is a super-introvert, even to pick his parent call is another thing....he doesn't even reply to greetings. You may mistaken him for a mannequin in public...
But he is a chatterbox with me,before I say one,he has said one thousand....he will call for like four hours and he will be the one talked and I just say "ok"....
Sometimes I pretend to be busy to avoid his long talk and his parents and friends have to call me to relay a message to him....
So love changes people
