                    I'm an introvert.
I like time to myself.
I like peace and quiet.
I don't like crowds.
I prefer small get togethers to parties.
I shy away from the spotlight.
I prefer talking to someone one on one than many people in a group because I get a.d.d. and easily distracted.
I like being aroun people but only in small doses.
I'm a homebody, but sometimes I get cabin fever.
I can't stand people who are clingy and are co-dependent because I'm not.
I'm a deep, internal thinker. I observe rather than talk in group settings.
If I don't get time to myself, I get cranky.
I don't mind going to movies by myself.

            I guess I would be an introvert also. I don't like crowds and really loud places.
 I definitely don;t like sitting in rush hour traffic.
 But --->>> I also don't like being alone.0

            I'm an introvert with extroverted tendencies meaning I like time to myself, am introspective, but I like doing group activities and can get out of my shell when it's appropriate (or drunk ):drinker:0

            Introvert.
 Generally, it people steal my energy. All people. It takes a lot of energy for me just to talk. People around me have no idea how hard it is for me to form a sentance. I am at work all day long in an extrovert environment. I have to talk to people all day. Communication is a huge part of my job. When I get home from work, I shut down completely. It's really ahrd for people in my life to understand that I need to recharge, and it takes a while. It's not just liek 15 minutes. It takes time. And, I'm not happy about having to talk. I just like to be quiet and have time alone.
 Fortunately, I can do that about half the time now.
 I find it difficult to be in a relationship being the way that I am. It just doesn't really fit. I require a lot of down time. More than most normal people. It's not a physical thing at all. My body is ready to get up and go, but my mind needs a rest from the noise.0

            Extrovert. However, I do prefer a quiet day at home with the family as opposed to some lame party.0

            strong introvert. I can non-awkwardly express myself around others, but I prefer keeping to myself most of the time.0

            I guess an introvert but I do like going out occasionally. I just have a low tolerance for people and for stupidity. Possibly because my expecations of people are too high in this day and age.0

 I'm the same way. I require lots of time to myself. I have always been that way, and thought something was wrong with me.0

            Extrovert. My husband doesn't like to leave me alone at places because he knows when he comes back there's a good chance I've started talking to someone :laugh:0

            Sometimes the whole introvert/extrovert thing seems to be a false dichotomy like Democrat/Republican!
 Since I suffer from a terminal condition called Engineering Career Syndrome (not sure what color ribbon that gets...), I must be an introvert of the most pernicious kind. Reminds me of my favorite joke about engineers:
 Q: How can you tell if an engineer is extroverted?
 A: Because when they talk to you, they stare at YOUR shoes rather than their OWN!
 And one other thing....how can ANYONE be introverted in this Brave New World of Facebook? I have hundreds of "friends"!0
