emperordachris: Yeah... It doesn't matter. Ladies do that for many reasons and it sometimes doesn't even have anything to do with the guy. She may be in a hurry, she may have loads on her mind or she may just not be in a good mood for small talk generally. Also, because of how much guys have abused the idea of walking up to a lady and saying all sorts like, "I saw you from afar and I just like what I see," - when she isn't some shirt on window display - some ladies tend to ignore random guys who just walk up to them. The whole idea is, be careful how you walk up to a stranger and start talking randomly. If you do the approach bit right, those you meet won't ignore you. Your goal is to make friends and increase your confidence, not appear like a nuisance. 4 Likes |

Someone got me angry today, a guy I barely know in my street called me a proud boy, he is definitely older than me, he said it to my face I'm too proud.... Since 8pm, I've been angry, I get angry for hours, whenever I'm angry, all I would do is listen to music, press phone, meditate, stay alone, and all these would last for hours As I am typing this, its 11:40pm already and I still feel angry and sad Why did he called me a proud boy?? Simple, my mum always wants me to drive her everytime or send me errands where I would have to use her car so whenever I drive by their shop, lots of guys always hail me, shouting for no reason so I decided not to look at them again whenever I'm driving, I only greet them whenever I'm walking, this is what made him call me a proud boy today, chai, this street don tire me. That's the more reason why I prefer estates, everybody minding his own business, just like me 7 Likes |

0luwatope: You really shouldn't be angry at all. 'Why? 'You may ask. Since you know the exact reason the fellow called you a proud guy and you also know his claim isn't true. You see, rationality rarely precede emotions and that's the reason many of us waste emotions on unnecessary things. Always take a minute to think about why you're expressing every single emotion and you'd often see there is absolutely no need for some emotions especially negative ones like anger. 4 Likes |

Happy new year my fellow introverts. I am more comfortable chatting online, dropping witty comments to strangers but I can't hold up a conversation for long. Unless we've been friends for long, or I am comfortable with you. Sometimes I wish I can do more. 2 Likes 1 Share |

0luwatope:One of the ways I overcame this type of anger is giving it back to the person immediately. You might call it retaliation but it takes loads of anger off my chest. One day, I went to a restaurant to eat. The way the eba was served wasn't appealing, it looked like a leftover. I called the waiter's attention. One customer just chook mouth as if he paid for me and told me to manage the food like that. I told him immediately that I didn't beg for the food. Immediately he faced his own food, the owner of the restaurant took the eba and apologized, I got what I wanted and everyone was happy. Shikena 6 Likes 1 Share |

my life as an introvert has been hell ofcourse it has been affecting me socially and academically, can't even ask or answer questions in class .am always afraid when lecturers ask questions in class, even though i knw the answer. i won't want them to point at me. initiating and keeping conversation flowing is a very difficult task to do. i can't even approach a girl i like, anytime i see a girl am into, my chest vibrate as if quarry is in my chest . 3 Likes |

GloryIsaac: It gives mixed feelings looking back at this post , had to elaborate on something today, felt jittery initially but it all left the moment i took the mic (kind of remembered Susan Cain's TED presentation), after everything i was quite surprised and happy at the same time that i actually talked just exactly as the advice i gave in the quoted post (not like i haven't done it before but it's not something that happens always). That initial jittery feeling just reminded me that some things might never leave a person, pretend so much it becomes part of you (the boldness etc.) but that initial instinct will always be there, it just has to be suppressed at the right time. 1 Like |

[quote author=GloryIsaac post=650703 [/quote] Exactly what I was thinking today,as much as I pretend the shyness is gone,its still there.we did exchange of gift today and there was little refreshment,chai I could not even dance neither was I free. I just felt like I didn't belong. Though,other factors were in play but the shyness contributed a lot to it |

adamsbadoo:What do you think when you see a "cute" girl? If every girl is your choice for a relationship, then you should check yourself but if you have a knowledge of what you want from a girl, then I think you will likely get over this anxiety. Free yourself from all sort of pressure by knowing the girl you should go for and not what society or environment may inspire in you. 2 Likes |
Re: Introverts Lounge (Extroverts Pls Keep Off !!) by Nobody: 5:53pm On Feb 15, 2018 |
Windflower: Haha, shyness is a very common trait among Introverts (though not 'exclusive to') and it can be suppressed. Though, that depends on the case at that particular time, like yours, if you can't dance, then don't bother trying in that kind of place! , perhaps you can go for dance classes and start showcasing your moves in small gatherings (family party etc.) before moving unto the big stage. On the other hand, if you can actually dance, there's nothing wrong in showing off for some minutes! .... As for me, i prefer sitting at one corner watching others gyrate, mainly because Yours truly doesn't have much moves up his sleeve . What were the other factors? 1 Like |

Aside INTJ's, is death stare associated with other personality types? |
Re: Introverts Lounge (Extroverts Pls Keep Off !!) by Nobody: 11:20pm On Feb 16, 2018 |
Akposb: Good Bro. As for the writing aspect, not as a professional job yet, might consider the column though. |
Re: Introverts Lounge (Extroverts Pls Keep Off !!) by Nobody: 11:34pm On Feb 16, 2018 |
Iyemik: ISTJ definitely. There's a lot of similarities between both personality types, I've done a couple of personality tests and one came out as INTJ, another one, ISTJ, with very thin lines separating them (51% and 49%, other one 48% and 52%). There are times someone might ask me a question, at the slightest turn to look at the person, he/she moves back in shock , can be very funny watching their reactions . By the way, it might also be a general introvert thing (INTJs, INTPs etc.) but it's very common among INTJs. Modified Took this just now, 12:20am. 3 Likes

GloryIsaac: "Why are you so serious?" I have heard the above question from concerned or intimidated individuals. When asked the above question, I simply flash a smile then after return to default mood. It seems death stare is mostly found in INTJ's than other personality types. 1 Like |
Re: Introverts Lounge (Extroverts Pls Keep Off !!) by Nobody: 3:03pm On Feb 18, 2018 |
Iyemik: Well, i actually love the death stare because it automatically puts people in their place without one having to say much . Even when you have nothing in mind against them, those who might have done some funny things behind your back will most likely give it away through their reactions when faced with such stare. I love it. 1 Like |
