So find a way to communicate with introverts. Get rid of the people. Right on spot! I was in this relationship wherein I was mis understood for being too quiet. I had always been quiet naturally. Although if you are in my domain(on a topic that interest me, once I get excited, I can go for a longer time) But in total, I think I just enjoy being in my own quiet world. The frustrating thing is you get asked all time "are you ok?" When you ask, why? They say,"you haven't said a thing or something" I then start wondering if I was the one that had problems or they. In summation,I think Introverts will not be understood most especially when you are in the midst of loud mouthed folks who most times have no clue about making sure that their brain is in gear before engaging mouth. ..Introverts get a bad rap because people don’t understand how they operate.

Now I understand why, after a day of dealing with people in the workplace, what I really want is to sit down with the paper and be quiet for an hour.

I am an introvert, and the way you have described introverts is accurate; I like people, but the more people that are around, the faster my batteries are drained.

It took me a while to take that leap of faith. BUT when I did it was so worth while. and then you keep adding additional elements like the blog. Makes it all worth while.

You're spot on, Sean. As a certifiable introvert, I usually say that “I love people… but only in homeopathic doses”.

You’re spot on, Sean.

I have been able to give talks to hundreds of people, but I find it more tiring than a 10 mile hike. It seems a lot of bloggers are introverts, I am still trying to get the last view submissions to my <a href="http://www.chrisg.com/survey/" rel="nofollow">survey</a> but it looks like a high percentage are answering in the affirmative. My brother on the other hand seems to be energized by social situations, hence he is a stage musician and I am not I guess ;) I agree with what you write here Sean, while in groups my battery depletes and I have to recharge.

Sean, you're an extra-vert not an extro-vert. You're first attention is turned (vert) OUTwards (extra) not INwards (intro). Do you know anyone whose attention is turned OUNwards (extro)? ...or even ITwards (intra)? :-) Don't believe everything you read in a dictionary. :-) Sean,
