People find it hard to understand my nature, I dodge my neighbours, avoid shallow conversations, stay indoors most times, hardly mingle except book reviews I go for because it makes sense. No girlfriend, emotions are subdued and I hate to let my feelings known to people because i find it hard to trust. Only few people have stuck around me. But then when I speak I keep people spell bound, I'm a bit of a perfectionist, sometimes I don't talk so people don't find me intimidating.Only few have come to know me.

oyetpel:


You are like me.

madbuk:

One of the most annoying thing is people think we are blind to their bad attitudes,as being quiet is seen as being dumb so they keep at it. I hate confrontations, but when I've had enough, I'm like a volcanoe, I must let out the hot lava till the end.. and mehn getting angry can be exhausting, I can take a whole month to recover from it.

interesting.. what age bracket are you? if you dont mind

chikk:


Nah... I don't plan to change anyone.
- Come out once in a while and do whatever it is you normally do - but in the company if others
- scream into the wild night, rambling ocean, etc.
- laugh hard
-Then go home and sleep or whatever.

Life is too short.

met a stranger yeternight after my lonely meditations in the park. she said something that got to me. she said " you have it all and you are unhappy, there are people who would kill you just to get a piece of what you have. be grateful" . Those words were mean and direct coming from a lady.

Same here. I stay indoors most of the time. I really enjoy staying indoors actually. I love to work independently but I am also learning to work as a team because it is necessary to maintain a balance. I try to study my environment first when I am in a new environment or group of people before coming out of my shell. I also try to put myself in someone else’s shoes very easily. I am also very emotional (I am not sure if this is part of the traits of an introvert though). In all, I am so proud to be an introvert.

Fellow introverts, be proud of who you are and don’t compare yourself to anyone else. Try to maintain a balance when necessary and also try to make the best use of your personality. Try as much as possible to build your self-confidence. Most introverts are outspoken, great leaders and excellent public speakers when given a leadership role. Understand who you are, cherish who you are, love yourself for who you are and I am sure the sky will definitely be your starting point. Happy world introvert day to us!

Being an introvert is fun me, for me I learn to fall back to myself when I feel a girl want to take advantage of the love I have for her, they are always surprised because I can love care pamper you but once you take me for granted, no more I free you and fall back to my self, sometimes they feel maybe I'm pretending, but I'm not that's just me.

Sometimes people feel I am too proud because I don't talk much, always with my phone watching comedy series, or browsing when am in a place or group of people I'm not familiar with. If you are a lady and I like you, I will find an opportunity to connect with you after few meetings will tell you bluntly how I feel.
I am always honest so I don't have time for mind games I really get sick of it, once I Tel you my mind, collect your number will call you try to relate with you, ones I notice your reactions towards my calls maybe you want to play mind games or you naturally don't like me. Omo that's the end ooo I no call again, but that doesn't mean if I see you outside I won't talk to you. I love been introvert I see things differently and I love to understand things.

A brief incident, someone called me a nasty name on the 31st night for no reason, I've been the type to let it slide cuz she's used to throwing words..but this one got me, I sent her happy new year message and later in the day sent her a message telling how I really felt about the "nasty word" and how you don't use such word on people.she called me to apologize, but ended it saying she wouldn't utter another word to me, I just wished I let her be and as usual avoid them.
I'm back home wondering if I was wrong to tell somebody how I felt about their actions. This is one reason why I like to subdue my emotions, keep to myself and avoid people, they always misinterprete things.

madbuk:

That's no way to know an introvert.. you're trying to rattle her, we don't like being rattled.

Apus:




Be careful with how much you tolerate. It teaches people how to treat you.

You did the right thing there. You are not responsible for how she reacted.
