INTROVERTS ARE NOT ....

Many people, who should know better think that an introvert are these things (but they are not):

1. Shy

No, No, No! Shyness and Introversion are two completely different things. They are not one in the same. Sure, some introverts might be shy but not all.


2. No opinions.

Seriously, what has this got to do with how a person energises themselves? I consider myself an introvert and I have a lot of opinions about things going on in the world.


3. Hates people.

My friend says he hates people. Sure, some people do some stupid things but some of an introvert's best friends are people. An introvert loves people, just not big groups of them.


4. Socially awkward

Some extroverts maybe awkward as well. Not just introverts.


5. Failed Extroverts.

Huh? What does that mean? Are you telling me that if you are not someone who can socialise with one hundred of your closest friends or can't talk for hour about nothing that you are a failed extrovert? I don't think so.
