10 Things Only Introverts Understand

[@jackdipasquale8199]

I just enjoy being alone more than being in the company of others. I never feel alone when I am alone. I look forward to going home after work to peace and quiet.

[@Anonymous_Anon882]

You have a rich inner world. Of course you’re going to give more weight to your intuitive or subjective musings (which don’t necessarily require the vis-a-vis company of other people). It just makes you more independent (for one thing).

I’ve a friend,she’s nice& good but most of the time she irritates me.doesn’t listen to me,gets upset with me,is stubborn,sometimes forget the manner to talk,she pressurise me to do things which I probably don’t like& when I say no she gets upset. I’m an extreme introvert & don’t like being with her much. Recently I told her that I like to be alone with my family and don’t like to be with friends much. She’s again upset with me. Is this a good friendship or not?

[@edwhatshisname3562]

As an introvert myself, I can tell you that we may be fairly quiet in person but a lot more social online, specifically through text. Communication is a lot less stressful when you don't have to come up with an answer right away, or worry about people interrupting you and causing you to lose your train of thought. You can take your time to really think about what you want to say, instead of just blurting something out and potentially making a fool of yourself, or offending someone unintentionally.. or at least that's true of myself.

[@JG.Firestar]

Yes and emojis I love to use them when I don't know what to say. So I just send a emoji that fits what I want to say. 🙃🙂

This. I'm currently taking a French class, and writing French is _so much easier_ than speaking it. I had an entire conversation in French over Discord a few weeks ago.

I’ve been with my other half for 20 years. He’s always been loud and sociable, whilst I prefer quiet time just the two of us. He’s recently decided he doesn’t like me anymore, and has been especially cruel and nasty about the fact I’m introverted. I feel like I’m at school again being bullied for being quiet. I’ve spent 20 years forcing myself to be someone I’m not. All I’ve ever wanted is a partner who likes the simple things in life like nature, camping, animals etc, I like the odd social gathering, but I’m not into small talk crap, I prefer to talk about interesting things then make stupid random meaningless noises. Why is it that extroverts are generally regarded as more likeable when usually they’re the shallowest most uncaring of all people. They spread themselves thinly and fake their way through life by being loud and stupid most of the time. Sorry for my rant 😔

Being an introvert is really easy for me. I don't mind being alone and just doing my own thing. I tried to be around people earlier in my life but it was just too much for me. I had to deal with people who used me or hurt me emotionally and that was enough to realize that I just couldn't develop relationships that were meaningful to me. I have friends that I have known for years and I have respect for them because they respected me. Overall I'm in a better place in my life because I only have to please me.

Giles is focused on finding the cause and a cure. Meanwhile Oz is considering the philosophical implications, for example that if his thoughts are the essence of his existence, and Buffy can read them, she is effectively becoming him and also everyone else around her.

I don't have any obligations or responsibilities. I don't need to respect anyone but myself, and I don't need to push myself to do anything other than the things I personally choose to do. But that gets boring eventually, and then I want to go hang out with people. I need stimulation, emotionally and mentally and physically. It's a balancing act, and it's very important to a healthy life.

I love being to myself. It's in my introvert nature. Major crowds can be draining over time, plus I'm quiet around crowds anyway. The only time I talk a lot is with those I feel comfortable with.

[@1mespud]

The main reason we introvert prefer solitude is that we don't like other people's problems jumping in line of the personal problems we already have. We think, create, stretch out and grow with less or no one around because we hate distractions and entourages offsetting our plans and ideas. We're also less likely to be narcists, braggards or showoffs.

[@Anonymous_Anon882]

And you also have your own cognitive functions which may or may not require the presence of other people in a vis-a-vis sense (to varying extents). A lead extraverted sensor by very virtue of the nature of that function is going to need a lot more social interaction than a lead introverted thinker or even extroverted intuitive (Ne might be technically extroverted but it’s not necessarily bubbly or outgoing in the way Se or even outgoing Si are). That’s why a lot of ENFPs (for example) seem like hardcore introverts until you get to know them better. The issue is when people who are co-dependent like so assume their way is the only normal way and that there must be something inherently wrong with everyone else. That’s when it becomes very offensive.

[@MegaLokopo]

I'll also point out even once we fix our own problems, everyone is only ever even more interested in telling us about their problems, because they have seen how well we solved our problems. It is funny how they never seem to learn that their issue is too much talking and not enough listening, but if they were able to listen enough to learn the importance of listening, they wouldn't need to learn how to listen.

The most jarring thing about outgoing folk is the fact that things ambiverts and introverts just expect people over a certain age to be aware of.

You wonder who these people’s mothers are.

[@magnumopus8124]

My family always assumed I was antisocial simply because I pretty much always wanted to be to myself, but what they failed to realized was that I made friends quite easily. I was friends with everyone and had no particular clique. That in turn made me realize that I just didn't want to be associated with just anyone. As someone who likes to continue to grow, I'm very particular about those I associate myself with. If I can't learn, grow or gain anything from being around you.....I bother to know you.

I just don't volunteer or talk about myself , Education, Jobs, Places I've traveled & lived. Yep. They didn't even know I have children, until one of my children call me. Three in my life time could and enjoyed having a deep conversation every time we meet, then we both got to know each other. (To a point).🙏..

I'm a social introvert, but most of my time I spend them in solitude. Still I have lots of connections and can navigate through many social circles, most of them are acquaintances, but my true friends are just a few.

[@dmo8895]

This is spot on for me. If you think you might have ADD, theres nothing wrong with you, you might just be an introvert surrounded by extroverts.

[@nelsonvargas2367]

I am most definitely an introvert , and I love it !!!!

[@brendanagy6205]

This is probably the best video about introverts on KZbin! Thanks for posting. I'll use it as a reference when trying to explain to others what it is to be an introvert.

[@Anonymous_Anon882]

Stereotypically-obnoxious extraverts: ‘O.M.G., some people can spend weekends with a book and a solo bottle of wine only for company without being depressed/suicidal? Some people eat lunch alone and are okay with it? Some people are okay being the reserved, smart observer at parties who’s actually Gucci just drinking Sambuca and Budweiser in the corner? Not everyone’s gagging for round-the-clock vis-a-vis social validation? Some people actually enjoy their own company? It’s not okay to make baseless assumptions or gossip about perfect strangers (many of whom are blatantly already down and don’t need kicking) to pass the time?’ Ambiverts (including pensive, well-rounded extroverts) and introverts: ‘erm, didn’t your mum teach you all this when you were 5? How do you not know all this basic respect, personal awareness and social-propriety stuff at this your big age? Are you actually tapped in the head? How did you make it through high school, you stupid, silly, obnoxious little idiot?’

[@neko_8315]

Being social really is draining

[@vernabryant2894]

I'm an introvert and I have got to have time alone or I get stressed tired and irritable.

[@reneemcgee9623]

Thank God they have a name for us I've been in therapy all my life and I just thought I was crazy. But this is me exactly 💯

[@Anonymous_Anon882]

When people are telling you you’re crazy just because you enjoy your own company that’s going to drive an anxiety so it’s understandable you had to go through that. I’m glad you found the peace and validation you needed with this video.

[@MegaLokopo]

You should get a better therapist if they haven't already discovered you were an introvert. It isn't exactly a new concept.

[@flowerpower4944]

Yea time alone up on the mountain is relaxing it re charges the whole mind body and soul, when you go home you feel rested and inspired.🤗💕💕

[@alanfbrookes9771]

A perfect explanation as to why the best people are introverts.

[@gellerbingsgaming]

Extroverts need to watch this video and try to understand us introverts. Often I have extroverts calling me weird because I like spending time alone

[@marknewton6984]

Extroverts give me a headache.

[@jungersrules]

“Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people.” -Eleanor Roosevelt. Talking about people exhausts me, but about ideas and the universe ... I'm energized.

[@brendadrew834]

Proud to be a creative introvert though an ambivert when I was young living in NYC as a professional fashion illustrator /floral designer with all the loud noises, crowded subways and streets, starting working for corporate America at age 19! Married for 42 years, raised three kids so been there, done that! Former fitness trainer in my 40s in the 1990s. Love the peace and tranquility at age 74 now, time to read a lot i.e. a lifelong "bookaholic" and time to be even more creative painting, cooking/baking and communing with nature by the sea! It's possible to create a heaven on Earth akin to French impressionist painter Claude Monet! And as introvert American painter Georgia O'Keefe stated, "Be of the world , but not in it"!! Smart woman!

[@emskeeeee]

I’m married to an adventurous extrovert. I’m outgoing but my ideal weekend is at home…I love being alone

[@Angell_Lee]

Great video as always, for the last one. I'm an introvert, but not shy. It's a stereotype that all introverts are shy. :P

[@kellymitchell3138]

Oh my gosh, how many times when I was younger did I make big plans with friends days or weeks in advance, only to wish I hadn't committed myself and agonize all day trying to find a way out of it. But the relief and joy when plans would simply fall through? Priceless! I count myself fortunate to like my own company 🥰

[@ScorpionNani]

I live in a city and I usually walk a lot around it alone with headphones, I hate crowd places but it's nice to just observe everyone and I'm always so jelous of watching friends and families enjoy their time together, I want that friend(s) to do the same, only missing the mental energy for it.

[@marianostarosiliz]

Conflicting desires hehe. You are not alone

[@pranab9315]

When i first heard the word introvert then i connected myself with this word. I always thought why i am like that but i like to spend most of time alone because first i want to discover myself and so that i can be master in my field. I always tell myself "Dear me, oneday i will make you proud" & i am working on it. I tried and i am trying to get my goal.

[@brendawarner5415]

Made me laugh,the one about hoping plans get canceled. I check all the boxes,consider myself to be an extroverted introvert. Yes, quiet, not shy.Talking when there's something to say,when there's someone interested or interesting to talk to.

[@christopherx7428]

How very true! I recently completed a little project, hiking through Germany from north to south. It was just me, the path and the sky and I was happy! Sure, I stopped and talked to strangers now and then, but that was when I chose to do so.

[@shibbyreviewseverything]

I thought I was a extrovert growing up because I'm a people person..but this video proves I've been a introvert my whole life

[@gregorywootton3870]

yes love all the Covid cancellations, working from home, life is great.

[@MARK-dn2zm]

Indeed 😭✋🏻😅😅

[@gruppettovelo]

I was never happier.

[@gwendolynbrown1111]

Lol. Me three!!!

[@jeevanshahi6910]

Deep connection with nature & Self

[@jessicaballantyne5825]

When I eat with my family, they're all discussing politics, and I quietly enjoy my meal, and maybe share my thoughts.

[@shelteredsparrow2736]

These are good and so me. A coping mechanism I have is choosing extreme extraverts as my closest friends. That gives me the ability to fade into the background when necessary

[@kevinjekyll1521]

I find as an introvert I get taken advantage of quite a bit of the time, I am honest with myself and expect that is the case with those I interreact with, a lot of people see that as just another of getting something for no or little effort. Being quiet doesn't equate to having nothing to say, as I remind myself daily, it is better to say nothing and look the fool than opening your mouth and removing no doubt!

[@hijinxvr1027]

Kinda in the middle here, as I'm big into both camping and raving. I love the peaceful solitude of the wilderness, but also love being around groups of energetic people. What an enigma!!!

[@Pinonyan]

Thanks for this reminder Makes me accept myself a little more.

[@allicat329]

This is that simple! Be in the moment live in it; and move forward. Remember 3 things. Benefit of the Doubt, Pick Your battles, and Mind Your own Business.

[@cre8gnr8nrg]

I’m an Introvert who enjoys being mistaken as an Extrovert. 😁

[@MARK-dn2zm]

So relatable bud...Idk why they think that social people are always extroverts that's pretty insane lmao :D

[@Ninasimonemarie]

I'm an introvert, I don't like people at all. So don't let this video fool you about introverts not liking people. Some do, some don't. It just depends on the person.

[@TrollFaceHmm]

"WHY YOURE EATING ALONE?" extroverts ask "EATING ALONE MAKES ME FEEL HAPPIER" introvert replied

[@tabarnakopoulos]

Alone time is the best quality time!

[@edmilsondengo2929]

Thank u! I fill more comfortable with myself now...

[@stevenkmiller]

If you're an Introvert but like exploring and being outside, you might look into being a long-haul truck driver. No office politics, little demand on your day other than getting there on time and pretty decent income.

[@mph1ish]

When I was a little girl I used to see these truck driving school commercials on tv and think wow what a dream job, that's for me! Makes total sense now 😄

[@Deoxxxxys]

I love being introverted leave me tf alone, don't talk to me, don't try and be my friend just ignore me and I'll be good

[@melanie9425]

This is literally me 😂

[@jonathanlopez8982]

I love the fact that now you are uploading videos more often!

[@2004marmar]

Hello introverts from an introvert ;) Such true info in this vid.

[@Michaketsu]

I'm an extrovert but I'm reading this cause I wanna learn the introvert's perspective in life.

[@fulop._.szilard3000]

I love being an introvert...but i hate it how hard it is to find love and a relationship as an introvert...i don't like going out to big social events, I'm kinda shy , and I don't like talking a lot, also i have no idea how to text or approach girls. It's like a curse, i don't want to be seen as creepy or strange, but it's really hard to know if someone is into u or just simply nice
