You have to become assertive and not allow people use you for their selfish interests.

Wow. I never knew this thread existed. This is amazing. Reading your comments and posts makes me feel like you all live inside my head. I can relate a 100% to almost everything here

I’ve been searching for answers to why I do not like speaking in public or being around people I barely know. I was coerced to speak at a conference. The day of the event, I came up with a phony excuse and just couldn’t bring myself to do it.

I always shy away from physical meetings with clients. I don’t like picking calls except from family or very close friends. I’ll rather they send a text. My life is very weird and I keep trying to understand it.

And yes, I think and plan a lot. My brain is always hot. I’m passionate about solving problems but anything that requires direct contact with people I barely know, I’ll just hide behind the scenes

Several times when I’m outside my comfort zone speaking with people or someone I don’t know, tears start forming. I do not fancy extremely long conversations that deprive me of my time to think. Except of course the other party is a very very close friend or family undecided

I hope to understand this personality fully someday
this happens alot to me,damn.the only time i feel really comfortable is when i am in my room alone with my phone.even when my guys wants to come visit me,i always refuse bcux I just don't feel comfortable around others sad.i so much love my space and people will start thinking otherwise grin

nice post OP, growing up, I was an easy going young boy with very good sociable characteristics, I was a big influence to my peers( I most saw me as a leader) until I lost someone very close to me, truth be told, it hit me hard to the extent I was losing concentration in everything, I'd be pondering and mumbling to myself for hours, I grew tired of everything and needed to start a fresh but that experience made me fear close relationships, then I started reflecting on the possibilities of casual relationships, I became an introvert at first I lost my confidence due to not having someone I could share my thoughts with but with time, I overcame everything and funny enough my family were happy when I became introverted thinking I was trying to avoid trouble, not knowing their boy almost got crazy, it took me 7 years to finally 'modify' my introverted nature to my taste and now, I am proud of my mentality but the obvious side effect of an introvert to me is slow adaptation, cos you'd want to analyse, project and dissect every situation in other words, most introverts go for perfection.
my take though.

OMG! Thank God for this thread, I can relate to most(if not all) of the issues discussed here.


I use to think I have a problem,I can be very noisy around my pals and family but whenever I'm out in public or people am not family with I find it difficult to speak even street English.My daily routine is work to house or where I play soccer...

I find peace and enjoy my loneliness, in fact, I can trade anything just to be alone. My neighbors call me a woman cos of my reserved or quiet nature. I can stay 24hours in my room and it will be my happiest day.
I can't do without music,reading,Internet or soccer.

It really affected my relationship cos my girl is an extrovert to the fullest,we once had an argument about my reserved nature and I told her that she could go out with her male friends so that I'll just be free and alone.

It is so sad the number of fake introverts has increased which has made it difficult for true introverts such as myself to find help.

you are not an introvert. You are gifted with the ability to solve problem. Don't pollute your mind by thinking you are not gifted and mentally unstable and abnormal like me (introvert)

Does this? So introverts don't get married or they have special partner made from imagination?

You are getting it all wrong bro, been an introvert doesn't mean you isolate yourself from people. you can relate with as many people as possible but you find solace in your privacy.

You don't have to look dumb before the opposite sex,that is being SHY... Introvert are smart, reserved and gentle...

again if you can talk to many people you are not an introvert.

Introverts are shy, and we need help. But since fake introverts are saying its OK, so how can true introvert such as myself find help?

I expected this response.
This is what true introvert such as myself pass through most times. When we go out to seek help, people laugh at us and call us liars or trolls after hearing our problems.

And you people are the problem for telling the world that being an introvert is OK.
