5 Reasons Why Introverts Should Date Extroverts by kayo80(m): 4:57pm On Aug 15, 2016
As an introvert back in my school days, i usually preferred to date introverts too, cos I couldn't handle an extroverted girl. One day, I met this girl, and she was so full of life that it was so contagious. I liked her energy, but when I found out that she liked Nollywood movies and some other things didn't I liked, I kind of started avoiding her. One day, I was discussing with my introverted friend in class, and I told her about how I felt about dating extroverts, and she changed my entire perspective with what she said that day. I went ahead and dated the extrovert girl, and it was one of the best relationships I ever had. Today, I decided to write on 5 reasons why introverts should date extroverts.



1. They Help You Break Out of Your Comfort Zone

Introverts naturally like to keep to themselves, and avoid parties and places where there is bound to be a crowd. But there would be times you just need to break out of your comfort zone to live a little, or achieve a goal, and your extrovert girlfriend/boyfriend would definitely help in that area.


2. They Sometimes Help with Vital Connections
As an introvert, you might want to always be in your shell, and know the smallest number of people possible. But, the more people someone knows, the more the chances of having the right connections that might help in your career, or business. And we know extroverts know people, that know people, that know people.


3. They Help You Live More

No matter how introverted you are, there will always be times you just yearn for some adventure, or some partying; your extrovert partner would be your perfect guide in times like that.


4. They Act as a Party Buffer

You might not want to go to all the parties you are invited to, but there are some parties you just have to attend. And since most introverts don't like to talk and relate with strangers, your extrovert boyfriend/girlfriend would sure come in handy, as he/she would act as a buffer between you and the people you meet at the party.


5. They Complete You

For everything in this world to be balanced, it has to have opposite sides. There is up to every down, left to every right, day and night, yin and yang, etc. An extroverted girlfriend/boyfriend would complete you in a way you can't understand until you try dating an extrovert.

Nice reasons but I'd pass. Unless she's just slightly extroverted and isn't thoughtless in speech and actions like most extroverts. They are good as friends (not a best friend) and acquaintances. Any closer than that and their company becomes energy draining.

To your shallow mind, perhaps. Not all introverts are the same. I consider myself an introvert because I take people in very small doses. People drain & irritate the piss out of me. I'm not shy though & I'm quite talkative...I just need A LOT of personal space. However, when I'm in a social mood or a social setting, I blend in without a problem. I make friends easy because people find me interesting. But the problem for me is keeping & mantaining those friendships. I just can't do it. I need my space. It all boils down to getting a bit of emotional & physical distance for me, personally.

I didn't write that mini-bio because I care or I think it's any of your business. Don't get it twisted. I did it to correct, educate & give you insight into "our" inner world because you seem narrow minded. Your understanding of people on a deeper level seems shallow, but I'm not surprised because you are after all an extrovert. I'll repeat it again, there're diffent types of introverts & the definition you just gave doesn't ring a bell with me. Or it could be that she didn't give two hoots about you. There's that too. Some have a problem socializing with people, especially people they don't care about.

You're just like me. Apparently there are 4 different types of introverts. Our type belongs to either social or thinking introvert. Personally, I'm a cross between social & thinking.

I know nothing about relationships & mannerisms? Please tell me more about myself grin , while at it, also tell me who made YOU the expert in relationships, etc. Learn to listen & listen good! I didn't say it didn't concern me, I said I cannot relate, which proves my stance that not all introverts are the same. We may be "boring" according to you, but it seems you are lacking basic communication skills, you can't comprehend for shit. No wonder she's avoiding you grin Jesus! It's like talking to a jellyfish!

Egocentric, yes. Humorous, no. LMAO. Dude, you got me bleeped up. I'm not one of the NL airheads either, so your asslicking is not required here. Regarding any form of communication & understanding what is being said to you, I still believe yours is a hopeless case. Take your head out your ass & maybe everything will start getting clearer.
