When Introverts don't get enough Social Interaction?
13 years ago
Something interesting I've come across tonight that I feel I should share. At the time of writing, I'm finding it hard to, well... introvert! In fact, it feels like my mind refuses to let me reflect and introspect. Instead, I must write them down; express them in some way. This is how an Extrovert gets their thoughts across, correct?
I also feel an intense desire to talk with someone. Of course, my friends are all asleep right now, so that's not possible. But it's making me antsy and feeling rather crazy. I'm finding it hard to concentrate on single thoughts.
We know that humans are social creatures, yes? Well, Extroverts and Introverts are like a scale on how much social stimuli (interaction) we need. Extroverts need others to build energy and feel drained when alone for too long (thus in extreme cases, can seem clingy/annoying). Introverts can get energy by themselves, but are drained of it around others (and so, can seem distant, cold, and/or shy).
I guess, in essence, I've build up so much energy from lack of socialization that I'm hyped up! (Maybe?) It's so weird, I've never had this happen before.
I can't even tell if any of this makes sense, since I can't reflect on it. I'm basically blurting things and I'm going to feel so awkward when I'm calmed down later. If it's sounds too nuts, I'll probably delete this post later.
Regardless, I'm gonna go pester my friend tomorrow.

FA+

and If you feel that you want to be around people, do that!
I am rather introverted. and if I lose a friend, it can take me a year to find a new one. I
usually have one clse friend at once. If you have the friendly, open approach of a Extrovert, you are Lucky ^^
Don't fight who your heart tells you to be ^^
And if you find a friend that's fine with you being you, then that's a most treasured friend indeed!
the main thing is not to worry about it <3
