ARE YOU AN INTROVERT? Signs and Traits of Introversion and How To Be Better Socially

[@Becksnnc]

Don't confuse being shy with being introverted. They aren't the same thing. I'm an introvert but if I have something to say I will say it. I won't be scared to speak up like a shy person would.

[@stephenolder4552]

For a lot of extroverts, the idea of recharging by yourself is just too odd of a concept and they have a hard time comprehending it, so they just assume you have to be shy. It just makes more sense to them that way.

[@vaibhav5502]

But which side do shy ppl fall? I think introverts.

[@charlottekohnen2200]

CastleFlameGal same

[@joanna271]

CastleFlameGal same! I can talk but I can’t start conversations unless someone starts it ;-;

[@stephenolder4552]

@Moody Fuck "eww" grow up. Besides, im just pointing out why i dont think extroverts understand introverts. How am i being pretentious? Or is it pretentious to you because you cant relate to it? You also seem to have an immature perspective on introverts by just brushing them off as "loners"

[@saasmeister9945]

introvert is not shy always extrovert and introvert both can be shy , this is fact

[@n.m.dimmick194]

Thank you. This is one of the most frustrating misconceptions about introversion and extroversion.

[@HowToTop10]

When someone feels comfortable is not shy. But introverts are comfortable less time than extroverts I think

I'm a shy extrovert, I like ppl, and I like gang ng out with them, but I am super shy, like my friend asked if I wanted to hang out, and I almost had a panic attack....fr!

[@kirstenaudreidejesus4115]

Personally, the best way to set aside introversion and be better socially for me is to talk to other introverts. Most of the time introverts actually want to talk to someone (just not a large group of people) but just don't have the courage to.

[@luckyowl10]

Kirsten Audrei De Jesus exactly, sometimes Introverts can make some of the best talk partners... if they feel like talking(hard to know) and if you take it sloooow...I discovered this because I like to talk to everyone (and no, I'm not cool everytime, I just like meeting new people and learning new things from them) 😃

[@invinciblenowyt]

Rafal Iwanczuk I always love coming home knowing that it is warm there with my two cats who don’t judge me. I love it when it rains and I’m at home. IT IS SO FUCKING RELAXING. With most communications (like at a checkout or getting a ticket on a bus) I get nervous and stumble on my words. I get scared when people recognize me in public. I also LOVE music. I want to live in japan as they are literally vending machine heaven and have tiny apartments in city centers.

[@aldieb07]

Sanket Chikalge no need..try to improve your social interaction tolerance limit..just so that u can do well in professional life(presentations, interviews) n romance..(generally girls acknowledge boldness) it's cool to be an introvert. choose a profession that suits your style...read " quiet" by Susan Cain

[@Reddles37]

Its bad to be too introverted because its hard to be successful by yourself. You are always relying on other people for stuff and if you're introverted that can be a problem. For example, even though I got good grades I've had some trouble getting things like letters of recommendation because my professors didn't know me very well and I never took the initiative to do any 'networking'. Of course you don't have to become completely extroverted or anything, but you'll generally be better off if you socialize a bit.

I am as true an introvert as can exist. I have not had any friends, nor a girlfirend since 8 August 2000. I work third shift job completely alone. I have not socialised with anybody since 2000, as well. I now only interact with humans in a manner that a client would interact with a service provider or a merchant. There are a lot of benefits in having nobody in your life. I would recommend social isolation to anybody. It is far worth the loneliness experienced. Being social in the 21st century is antiquated and no longer necessary. It actually hinders us more than benefits us.

[@luckyowl10]

Natsu dragneel 1. you are "born this way" , so you can't change and sincerely you don't need to change 2. yes, you can improve your social skills with enough courage, time and patience from a more social-open person 3. but the best thing you can is embrace your introversion in order to be one step ahead of most people. As an introvert, for example you are better at observing and taking good decisions. So you read much more things about a stranger than most people and are selective enough to not meet toxic/bad people. All you need to do is to try to socialise with the people you consider ok and use those extra details to spice up the conversation. I hope it helped you!

Introvert here. I like being alone. I have friends who wanna meet up every once in a while, but I would pretty much prefer being alone and at home. It drains me so much to go out and mingle. But I have no problems with work. I earn a good amount of money despite it being a job that requires very minimal human interaction (and I feel so lucky to have found this job). And I love it. I love my current lifestyle. I feel more alive than how I was when I was forcing myself to be more social. I'm happier now that I've embraced being an introvert, being who I truly am. I thought that I would never find love like this... but I still did. And Im glad I stayed true to who I was. Because I met a guy who loves me for me, not being someone who pretends to be fun in front of many people.

[@DEFIB7]

Woah, you made a video all about me? I'm flattered!

[@Netherzapdos]

I’ve always thought i was antisocial because of my persobality. But i realized i wasn’t, but instead i was “differently social”. I heavily enjoy talking about the small things in life, scientific things, things that are usually not supposed to be brought onto a deeper level but ended up bringing it to that level kind of thing, y’know? :d and the thing is, it’s hard to find people who think like me

[@ioanna3222]

There is no such thing as differently social stoopid. You just have to admit that no one likes you and wants to be near you

[@omodrip1558]

It's asocial, not antisocial.

[@mookamoka3]

I'm so introverted that I've never needed a test to tell me so. This video is by far the best description of not only introversion, but also of my own personality that I've ever come across! It's sad that there are people (my own girlfriend, a HUGE extrovert, being one of them) that confuse inward thinking for selfishness or narcissism even though I'm the type of person that will go out of my way to avoid stepping on people's toes 99% of the time. It's probably not a good relationship trait to only think about theories or ideas all the time, but it doesn't mean we don't care. It's just not instinctive to reach out to others first all the time :(

[@traditional-g8h]

I am an introvert and love doing things alone. But I also want to have few friends. I don't. And that becomes a situation and makes me feel sad in my life. I need to love and embrace completely my personality and the right people will come. I hope so.

[@TheArtofInternet]

Animations were really cool in this video, good job. I'd also definitely say I'm an introvert (which I already knew) but I'm also not afraid of talking to people I just am not a fan of most social things haha.

[@PracticalPsychologyTips]

+TheArtofInternet maybe you're an ambivert :)

[@TheArtofInternet]

Practical Psychology it's possible!

[@tomaszantochow8391]

Funny, I'm the other way around! I am always nervous around new people and my social skills fail me in situations that I have never encountered. But once I get comfortable around people, I love hanging out with them, going to parties, etc. But sometimes I also like being alone or staying home to game (even if that is still to a large degree social interaction if you play online, which I do). I guess I'm something like a shy ambivert :D

[@bbs2183]

Introvert can be very talkative if they want to.

[@casscat7]

I'm also an introvert, and almost all of what you described is very accurate for me, and one of the things that stood out to me is how you've mentioned that introverts are different from how they're commonly portrayed. Which is ever-so-certainly true. It's also difficult Especially when there are a lot of extroverts in my family who don't understand my introversion at all. And whenever I'm quiet and rephrasing my words in my mind before I speak in the best and most thought-provoking way I could, they get angry and take it offensively. They think of me as rude, a "victim", doesn't listen and that I'm ignoring them. When in reality, they don't get the truth at all, and those flaws they falsely perceive in us is exactly what they're doing. It's a pain a lot of introverts have to deal with -_- I know that was completely off-topic and all... But I just felt the need to get this out there for some reason... x3 But of course, thank you so much for this video! ^^

[@HowToTop10]

I like that you don't do just mainstream topics but you get in detail in your ideas. Good video man :)

[@adrianops7]

Such a good video, thank you. There are so many people out there that misunderstand us, introverts, as full of ourselves, arrogant, unfriendly, when in fact we are just shier and quieter. The world as it stands is quite challenging for us, introverts. Just like you, extroverts, we are just trying to make it through life, we just have a different way to see the world, which is not better, or worse than yours - just different.

[@elijah24567]

I am an introvert but i'm an exception to talking or riding a bus when i'm spoken to i answer the best answer that i can muster but most of the times when i'm the one in need i actually think what to say, how to say it over and over again until i spent 20 minutes thinking to a 1 minute action i feel that i must not screw and bother somebody else in a bus or public transportation i'm always on guard even when wearing earphones(classical music) i'm always on constant alert when i it is time for me to hop off i think a mile(figuratively) before how to do it, which part of me moves first is it the hand or foot or do i turn towards then stand up when seated etc the nervousness in me (60%- on transportation & 89.90%- when talking). Now i am applying in a fast food chain and hope that i can overcome this trait which admitedly i love for most of the times. Plus i don't know how to i guess its called small talk people so most of the people i know i classify as casual or business acquiantance specially in school but i do have friends those that came to me much to my surprise. I love the feeling of it that somebody will actually ask how are you and give advice and aid etc.

[@TheSilenceIsBroken1]

Being an introvert is difficult because often times we get caught up in our own minds and tend to miss out on what's going on around us. This is usually very confusing to people on the outside looking in, as we don't always communicate everything that's going on in our world to them. We're also very selective about the people that we choose to socialize with. Meaning that if we do talk to you then it's because we've observed your behavior and noticed some of the common characteristics that we share which brings us comfort in socializing and befriending you. Overall, being very selective as to who we choose to socialize with and what we say to them makes it difficult to connect to others and maintain relationships with them. We're aware of this, which is usually why this isn't on the top of our list of priorities to begin with. With that being said, if you can relate to some of my thoughts (being that the majority of this people are introverts and are experiencing the same thing) and would like to further discuss this matter or are just looking for somebody to talk to, then follow me on social media, send me a message and lets be friends.

I like being an Introvert. My family gives me the hardest time for keeping to myself. They're all extroverts and have plans every weekend, while I just stay to myself and the few friends and "trusted" family members I have.

[@randyzeitman1354]

Please... what do you think of this way to describe introversion (vs. shyness). • Introversion is (degree of) ABSENCE OF DESIRE to socialize. Introversion is rooted in managing (external) stimulation. • Shyness is (degree of) DESIRE TO BE ABSENT from socializing. Shyness is rooted in managing (internal) fears.

[@Coty_Lee]

While I am definitely an introvert and prefer spending time alone than with friends all the time, I find when I'm romantically involved with someone it switches for that particular person. I'd rather spend most of my time with them than on my own

[@Atypical_Typo]

Coty Lee same, but it's a double edged swords my friend... use to do that and For 5 years I was with this girl until I found out that she cheated on my with her co-worker. Her reason: "he likes to go to places with me and he's not afraid of talking to other people. You are a really good guy, but you are too boring and I don't understand how you can live under a monotonous routine like that." Yeah like that's a good reason for cheating... because of her I can't even talk to women anymore, thinking they are the same and if I try again I will only end up betrayed again. That's what you get when you date an extrovert. My point is: don't act like your girlfriend/ boyfriend is a "savior" and don't forget to take care of yourself too in a relationship otherwise you become "addicted" to said person and when you loose them....God have mercy on your soul...the pain becomes unbearable. Luckily I have been single for 2 years so I don't feel that much pain anymore, but I can't love anymore either...

[@Coty_Lee]

Yep I've definitely learned more to grow into my own person after a painful breakup. I feel much more confident with who I am now than before. I don't feel as dependent on a girl for happiness anymore. That doesn't change that I still strongly desire companionship but I think I'm far better now as a person

[@luckyowl10]

Coty Lee exactly, Introverts are not forever alone types of people , they just like spending time just with close people instead of close and unknown people.

[@MasterJP28]

Wow that sucks! I'm sorry to hear that. As an introvert, I over think to the point that when I meet a girl I'm afraid something like that can happen and just walk away saying "it's not worth it."

[@MrRgarcia2010]

This was an awesome animation and an even better simplified explanation on introversion. I myself tend to be more of an introvert but am more of an ambivert. I don't mind being around too many people (in a group) and can definitely give a speech in front of many. I do like to spend my free time alone and will even dine/explore alone. Funny thing is that people really believe that I have mountains of friends (because I am outgoing) but don't know that I am reserved and gear most of my conversations towards the other person. Anyway, really informative and entertaining. Thanks for posting.

[@nathanielsharabi]

he's right guys. liking to be mostly alone doesnt necessarily make you an introvert. my gym teacher once explained that we tend to think we are introverts cause we compare ourselves to the most social people we know. in reality its a spectrum where statistically you dont fall on. he said "if youre running in a race and having other people beside you pushes you to go farther and quicker. I dont believe youre an introvent. and you arent held back by it if you are an introvert. just flex your social ability like a muscle since it is a crucial skill we all need at some bare minimum"

[@igniaxii3099]

This was very helpful in my childhood up to a point. It can be hobbling after too long. Practical experience interacting in public is key to making this fluid and picking up on social rather than verbal cues. I'm still working on that myself. Every time I mildly offend someone, I do tend to run for the hills, though. "Where have you been for 3 months?" Oh just busy... with family... and work... I was swamped... (I'm the sorriest?

[@Call0fRudy]

I have a small suggestion that many would appreciate; when you reference other videos throughout your current videos, it would be really helpful to put an annotation at that time linking back to the referenced vid!

[@samimohsin1776]

I am an introvert, and i don't need to be a social person, because i don't see any reason to be like you, it is like you are saying to me, why are you happy, be an unhappy person like me, why, i am the happiest person on the earth, when i am alone, and play my instrument, or draw, or in my shop to make a furniture, so why i have to be a social, and waste my time with talking, in a time that i don't like to talk or to have friends, to go parties, all of these things are just wasting of time at least for me. it is like asking you, what color do you like, Red, no no you have to like mine, because most of us like Yellow, then you will be good, or see a beauty from your corner, and think that what you see is just the best, what others find beauty is not beauty but bad, so being Introvert is something that most of social people can not understand how it is beauty, benefit, tranquility, freedom, far from bla bla bla, this guy has done that that and that, she argued yesterday with that girl and bla bla bla. what a pathetic people you are. learn the most important thing in this world, and it is, Be just who you are, and let others be who they are. that is the beauty of life.

[@xotinny1150]

This speaks on so many levels. I'd rather learn from you than from the content.

[@zodiacfml]

For success, there should be no preference of one over the other. One can be the opposite trait if the situation calls for it. It is mentioned probably twice in the video where a person can be fluid between the two. The worst thing a person can do is stick to a trait for too long even if the opportunity or situation calls for it.

Well, the video has more than that. But yea, good point

[@LxstinNeverland]

It's mainly for stupid people who don't know what an introvert is, or that they exist. It's for extroverts to also understand. See, I had a friend once.. She was a major extrovert. Then, we didn't really know these two words. But she always wanted to go in public, I always wanted to stay home. And she just couldn't ever understand why. If she knew today that I'm an introvert, and she understood what that means, everything would make perfect sense to her.

Being an introvert when everybody around is an extrovert simply... sucks! Why are you so quiet?! Can you relate?

[@introvertreed6009]

I can relate. Sitting there not saying anything, listening to gibberish talk,then when you say something your voice is drowned by their noise. I usually find a way to escape before one of them says "you're so quiet," " you're too quiet." This usually happens at work with my extrovert co workers,that's torture.

But the thing is, if you need both, then you must make time for both and be ambitious enough to get better at both, because you're not extremely good at any one of them (you feel nervous in social events when you know almost nobody and can get bored like hell alone). But this is what I love most about being a ambivert, I see life like a continuous challenge and enjoy whatever this day may be. At MBTI I scored extremely extravert like 90% , which is quite not "ambivert" but a test can never be 100% true so I'm happy with it. My personality type is ENFJ "The Protagonist", which is close to reality and other types which describe me almost as good are ENTJ "Commander", ENFP "Campaigner". Find joy every day!

Great video mate, spun me out a bit when i relized i had every trait in your checklist.

[@haramarhara]

everytime I get out and talk to people, I feel like talking to NPCs and just stand there seeing like, "press E to interact."

[@ravirshankaram7754]

Introvert have confidence much more than any extrovert but just they don't make it public

And don't feel fake when you are going out of your comfort zone to be more social, it can be another side of you that others can understand better and it can still be you.

[@ministerofnothing240]

I'm always not really that sure when they say how do you act around other people because when I'm around my friends I'm more extroverted but around other people I always keep to my self and not talk as much or avoid talking to anyone in general.

[@popcornfilms1]

Like everyone else in existence

[@kwtf564]

popcornfilms1 i love you

[@piperman9870897]

Love your videos dude. Really well made, easy to follow and dead informative. Cheers for sharing.

[@dezaraefreise6499]

I am an ambivert but I rarely hear anyone talk about it, and I don't know anyone else who is...

[@creasor2478]

I'm a motivated, confident introvert :), used to be a bit like this before i got my confidence back

[@adamharb9233]

I just like to be alone tbh i like to eat by myself and watch movies by myself because i feel more comfortable that way. I have friends but i rarely hang out with them only at school. I try to talk to people but the conversation are too short. I like being an introvert but i wish i was like those people who have thousands of friends and would call you to hang out. People rarely call me to hang out or text me, maybe because i decline it lol

[@melodymurtaugh2275]

Okay first of all, introverts are often not shy and they can be some of the most social people you will ever meet. They just prefer solitude because they genuinely enjoy it and they recharge that way! People drain us!

[@sanyammalhotra58]

It is always idiotic when people say things like introverts are more smart or extroverts are more friendly. Introversion and Extroversion is differentiated on the basis of "Preference to stimulation". Introverts have low stimulation environments like their own bedroom or a quiet cafe with books as their preferred stimulation zone, while extroverts like high stimulation environments. It does not mean introverts are shy or less friendly, or more smart. Introverts can have better tendencies for being smart because they spend a lot more time with thoughts and books, but this doesn't guarantee that an introvert shall be smarter than an extrovert. I lie mostly on the introvert side of the spectrum, but I do know people who like to party all the live long day and can beat me in life philosophy or chess any waking moment.

[@LxstinNeverland]

Sanyam Malhotra I'm so glad you know what the difference between the two are. Many say "introverts are shy and can't be social". No, being social has nothing to do with it. It's how we recharge, that's what makes us different.

[@humairasheikh9203]

Really wonderful information, very well explained and presented. Thank you.

[@BharatKumar-dc2el]

I am proud to be an introvert.

[@shwayne9864]

thank you!! this video really helped!! I'll definetly try your tips.

[@shamierahkendricks5722]

I'm A Proud Introvert

[@DallasfanTen]

Introverts can be extroverts but only in spurts. The key is all about recharging. Read a book etc limit socializing until your batter life is full then you can be as extroverted as the next person. But keep in mind that you have limited battery life. Rinse and repeat. Extroverts on the other hand "recharge/gain energy" by socializing.

[@sanjaydalmia18]

I'm trying to open up so I try to speak whenever there's a discussion going on. But I always end up saying something extremely stupid so now I wanna go back to being quiet. Jeez! Help me!

[@g_mcp3962]

same 😔

[@aneeshasb5485]

[@MrSheymie]

Introverts love communication and relationships, but prefer one-to-one communication (which can feel more genuine to the introvert) over group socialization (which can feel less genuine to an introvert).

[@jmcowart301]

Everyone has heard of these. And yet you throw in "Embrace the Nerves" with No follow on. Are you kidding me? Yes, I'm what you might call an introvert. I love my cave. I return to it as soon as I can whenever I'm forced to be out in the other places. I see my cave on a mountain, and I'd just as soon throw rocks at anyone trying to get here. So, yes. An Introvert.

[@eevviiee4618]

I'm weird, when I'm alone, I'm super quiet around strangers or people that aren't really my friends but when I'm with my friends I just become super outgoing and "fun" like I get this boost of confidence wth

[@sanketchikalge6647]

Epic4reelzgaming is she introvert too??

[@blakeriley8829]

Introvert doesn't have a negative connotation. Most geniuses were and are introverts so I take pride in the label.

[@vedvartak9915]

I can easily make friends but i prefer being alone on my room... so what am i? introvert or extrovert?

[@PracticalPsychologyTips]

+Mr. Awesome ! Ambivert!

Wow cool... i just found the right word to describe it:) thank you

[@vickils9571]

Many of the individuals you named were believed to be on the Autism spectrum, also, many individuals who label themselves as introverted actually have anxiety and if they get help for the anxiety find they enjoy being around others more.

[@anvitachandra1075]

I am also an Introvert I have problem beginning or continuing talks with people am not really close to CAN U HLP ME PLS?

[@LxstinNeverland]

Anvita Chandra That's normal. Introverts do not find any reason to waste time in small talk with people they don't hang out with most times. We only select a small group of friends, and we call it good. We don't need a party to be social, or content with our circle of friends.

[@blacksharkswimmer3729]

Don't let it get to you. No biggie

[@wizfaai6089]

Introvert and ppl who have communication disorder is two different things. Please don't mistake this! Im confident to talk but rather smile at least if it just for idle talk.

[@ApplepieFTW]

MBTI has been debunked... It's almost completely meaningless Other than that great vid

[@hyrakeshi]

I'm totally an introvert and feel the most comfortable while i'm alone at home or in my circlesBut i don't have problems with socializing and i think no one would think i am an introvert the moment he meets meThat's why i think the battery idea is the most fitting :)

[@ritznavarte7416]

what is a "friend"? is it edible?

[@feanordunoldor7889]

I think it's a Pokemon

[@baileymcbride18]

I think it’s a type of plant

[@skynard83]

I think the person who made this video was trying to be funny when he said friends

[@avaangel777]

what type of food is it?

[@KD-wz8tp]

I love who I am, but who I am isn't understood by most people. An ideal work environment isn't easy to find. Being introverted is both lovely and difficult.

[@everzamora9031]

can you make a video about AMBIVERTS..thanks.subscribed

[@KyxLimitless]

Ever Zamora yea I’m both

[@utkarsh3708]

They are worst

[@shorx9199]

nobody cares bruh

[@Primape92]

Would you mind doing a video explaining in-depth what an ambivert is? Based on what I've read on it thus far, I find I identify with that of all three of the terms fully. But I've also read that ambiversion is not even a certified official label.

[@theusa9789]

Video is awesome but I already knew that

[@PracticalPsychologyTips]

+The USA :D Thanks for the support!

[@diogenesdacynic8656]

why is being an introvert negative? i wholeheartedly agree that i am an introvert, i dont use it as a negative label however, but as a tool to foster further understanding of myself. Regardless of social interactions or success, Ultimate happiness comes from within....

[@lightning1055]

Its not negative. Any article with any merit will tell you introversion is not a bad thing, and they have their own benefits. Also, very few introverts give a shit about being social. Their entire video is garbage. Not a single ounce of merit in the entire thing.
