Captain of sports teams , dance captain for a show overseas , and I don’t stress , I am in my element , but I often don’t complete tasks . Too many ideas so get judged .

I'm an extrovert and my best friend is introvert so, I know how introverts are, they're not all shy and socially awkward. They just don't want to be with a whole lot of crowd because they don't know what to do with them and whoever says that parties are not for introvert is a complete lie, they just need a friend to be comfortable with, then they won't care who they're surrounded with and that's one of the best thing about them. All extrovert should have an introvert friend. They make the best combo.

I like this. It counters that idea that extroverts need stimuli or else their brains aren't as active (?) and suggests maybe introverts and extroverts just have different stimuli. I'm an ambivert. Sometimes I crave to be around others, get to know the intricate works of their minds, hear their stories, learn how they tick, and form connections with them. Sometimes I crave to be alone, get to know new piano pieces to play, hear my own thoughts, learn how to mod a game or form better connections with myself. Both stimulate me. Maybe that just mean my brain is even quieter without stimuli haha but I'd like to think it's just normal to need input sometimes.

everyone seems to be an introvert in the comments so here is an extroverted person's point of view. Being outside is like a part of you, especially during quarantine most of us literally lost a part of ourselves. We find it hard to get through the day because we are deprived of social attention, it's a fuel that keeps us going. Sometimes you may find us annoying, but if you really try and slow us down we will listen. Also, not all extroverts think introverts are quiet or annoying. Most of us are dying to say 'hi' but are scared that you would ignore us or you would think we are the annoying ones breaking your silence.

If I was still at home (currently deployed), literally nothing in my life would have changed because of the pandemic. However for you guys, like you said, being outside and socializing is your fuel. The only thing that I hope with what's going on is now that extroverts are experiencing how it feels to be an introvert in social gatherings, extroverts can respect us a bit more. A lot of extroverts couldn't understand how we feel when being dragged to huge social events and how it drained us, but now that you guys are the ones being drained, hopefully perspective kicks in. Anyways, I really do hope that things back home get back to normal soon for you guys. I know what you guys are feeling right now, and it sucks.

Hmm. I dont have that problem being an introvert. As the video said I am not shy nor am I one to not have my opinion heard. If someone cuts me off and attempts to incorrectly assume what I’m going to say, I will typically allow them to finish, then quickly let them know that they are wrong, and to please not cut me off again. If I’m in the right mood I may even interrupt them back by asking them to not cut me off and allow me to finish what I had to say. Being shy and being introvert aren’t mutually inclusive. It took me time to learn to stand up for my self, keep working at it, you’ll get there too.

Superficial conversions in group settings are the most draining thing one can experience, it's essentially people talking about their own selves or gossiping... then wondering why we can't be bothered to join in! Also I am convinced that there are way more people with introvert tendencies than they dare to admit, because of social pressure and greater rewards being associated with displaying extroverted forms of behaviour.

Sometimes I questioned why whenever other reps and their managers went in to see the Dr before me there was so much laughter (mostly fake) and jokes. Then when it was my turn nobody was laughing. I just went in, did my job and left. I provided real solutions for their patients especially with regards to formulates and medical aids.

On top of that, my work for example, requires a lot of independent work, with very minimal social interactions. At the end of the day I actually crave human interactions.

The internet is a platform fitting for introverts. Before, society was ruled by extroverts who could not understand introversion. They tried to force introverts into a extroverted form, which was suffocating. On the internet introverts can engage in the sort of discussion they enjoy. They can dwell on topics they're interested in, on a deeper level and more thinking time. They can infinitely explore and feed their mind with new knowledge and ideas. Since the internet is so all-encompassing in today's world, through it introverts are also noticed, since they get as much space as extroverts. They are also encouraged with the fact that there actually exist a huge amount of introverts, there's nothing wrong with them, unlike what they were told before.

I've been mostly an introvert. In 5th grade, i took on being an extrovert, and was immediately, consistently ridiculed for my extroversion. So, I receded, stayed an introvert to protect myself, all through public school. Eventually, I became a musician, studying intensely at home. I became enamored about performance, and began to try it at open mic's. I developed my skills, and drew people who coached me, encouraged me. I became comfortable on stage. Eventually, I wanted to perform for a living. A partner showed me how to market myself (an extrovert's work), do business. I bit the bullet, got work, got to work. I did it for 10 years.... but the introvert within prevailed. I got tired of the endless, relentless hustle. It was time to recede. I became a welder, where I could sit at my bench, and get lost in my work. On occasion, I'd do a performance... and my inner extrovert would pop out. I'd be humorous, entertaining, witty, magnanimous, everyone had a good time. I do like both aspects of myself now... but am mostly, an introvert. I live most of the time, alone, and enjoy it immensely... but persue opportunities to perform, be the entertainer.

I was just talking about this with some of my friends. As a group we're a mix of extroverts and introverts, but one of my more introverted friends said that during the pandemic he realized he is more extroverted than he thought, as while he mostly prefers to take time to himself and not be in groups, his depression worsened from not being out as much even though he doesn't live alone. Early on he thought it wouldn't affect him much since he already was indoors a lot, but it definitely made a big difference. I guess it's like the girl in the video who sits in the park and watches others have fun- my friend likes to just go to the grocery store or sit in a quiet booth at a restaurant with maybe one other person and just have the other people be an ambient part of his surroundings, but it actually gives him a lot of the socialization he needs. I don't totally get it myself, but I think it's pretty cool that he figured that out about himself.

Ambiverts need more attention in videos like these. I'm a total ambivert myself. I always want to hear everyone's input and then think about the information, chew on it for a bit, and come up with some more ideas. Then suggest those ideas to others. And then think about them some more. It's a cycle. While I have a tendency to come up with quick ideas, I also despise superficial conversations and would rather be alone than deal with boring people who chat about inane things. All my friends are introverts and I don't get along well with extroverts because my inconsistent energy makes it hard for us to interact. I'm not quite introverted enough to balance them, but not extroverted enough to keep up with them. Introverts are so easy. They handle both sides of me really well because I don't stress them out as much as extroverts do. I wish there was more research on ambiversion though. I know I'm not the only person who feels like a walking paradox.

Wow I learned I'm an ambivert. Really explains why I was so outgoing and social during my elementary/preteen years, but suddenly in high school I started to feel my energy drain from the constant expectations of my family and friends, and instead of being honest and asking for help I just cowered into introversion and all my friends from back then were scared off cause I was a completely different person and that must have made them think I was lying the whole time or manipulating them. 7 years later, I got diagnosed for adult ADHD-C a month ago and started meds, slowly but surely leaning towards extrovert again now, I'm making eye contact and smiling at random people and it feels both awesome and depressing that it's going to probably going to shift back and forth between the 2 for the rest of my life

Totally! The Meyers-Briggs puts me at 60% introvert. I previously worked 5 years in a highly social career and when I left it took me 6 months of mostly solitude to recuperate. I then lived with family and cared for children so I rarely or never was completely alone. I now work parttime as a cashier. I see a lot of people but don't have to form deep relationships. I loathe small talk and often talk life and politics with people I don't know. If I work more than 30 hours per week I become irritable. I am not shy at all but I often have to force myself to do social things. I would much rather avoid obligation, even though I am responsible to a fault.

If you’re an introvert and want a social life try to get into psychology, I’ve found that studying people makes it pretty fun to go out into social situations. Instead of just talking or interacting you’re studying people and practicing experiments with yourself as a variable. If the topic of conversation is boring you’ll find stimulation in reading body language and even little subconscious cues that people give off. From there you may act on them(not in a harmful way) to see what happens further or if you notice distress you can see if certain things you’ve learned may ease them.

This video does oversimplify the Extraversion/Introversion theory. Hell, everyone wants to be an introvert if you say that "introverts think more." Kinda like how 16 personalities calls the INTJ type the "Mastermind." Of course everyone wants to be smart. Theres obviously also the other case where (cultural) bias is against introverts.

Definetly what's my thougt, ofc it would take many hours of video material to explain it detailed, but I think even in a 6-7 minutes video you need to take a little more time to mention a little detail. For example my Friend claims he is extrovert, but in a conversation he listens carefully, and takes his time to think about it, and then he can speak fast and clearly about it, you can train that, but often you are an extrovert AND think before you speak naturally. A little Detail mention or at least links to different (detailed) scources and studies in the describtion would be much better.

If he said "think more", than it was perhaps poorly phrased. At least in how "think more" can be interpreted, words are often vague and sentences can have more meaning. First I think that the term thinking, and thinking(thoughts) are in general over-rated. The brain is among other things, a storage unit of information. What that information is, are in simple terms, everything. Memories. Language. Body language. So on. For the most part people are essentially sitting on data, pulling it out as needed. So for the purposes of this comment, thinking will be defined as a process: Listening, pulling up relevant data, and forming it into an understandable sequence that can be then translated into an understandable language that can be conveyed. With that definition in mind, I think it is more correct to say that introvert "think more", and please do not misunderstand, this isn't inherently positive, and that extrovert "think less" in the same manner. In that, I mean the process of going from a listening state to gathering data and forming a sentence, takes a longer time. And "thinking less" means taking less time for "thinking" to happen. "thinking" and "thoughts" being as I described. Of course, nobody is 100 percent extrovert or introvert, a mix of both which might mean very different things for different people.

I've been an ambivert ever since I was eleven years old and got out of the introvert box I was put into after developing communication skills throughout school. Whenever I take personality tests I will score slightly introverted or slightly extroverted depending on my mood. I've worked on this and will escape from situations where I am put into the introvert box. Extreme extroverts hate me because I get frustrated when I can't get a word in edgeways and eventually I will give up listening to their long and boring monologues and either start a side conversation, switch off and daydream or look at my phone or walk away. Extreme introverts also hate me because I want to communicate verbally and don't want to play guessing games all the time as I am not a mind reader. I am not into communicating by leaving and responding to rude notes left lying around unless it's a phone message taken when they were out so I prefer to sit down and have a serious conversation around setting ground rules and boundaries I will tear up rude notes written out and left for me when I was at home at the time when they could have knocked on my bedroom door asking to have a word with me. I did that to one flat mate who thought she could communicate with me by leaving nasty notes when she could have spoken to me directly but she wouldn't as that would have meant having to listen to my side of the story as well. So I knocked on her bedroom door and gave her a piece of her mind. Then I ripped up the note and dropped it on the carpet in her bedroom and said that I wasn't going to pick up the pieces. I also refused to give into the demands in the note. I can't be bothered with either extreme.

As an ambivert, I can tell you how ambiverted brains work. We do tend to come to simple answers fast, like extroverts, but more complex answers can also be uttered by us and it still takes a long time to develop them, so we are also similar to introverts. Our thinking method tends to depend on the situation. We are also both creative and social and tend to need more of one, but can't be without the other. I love to have alone time, but I can't stand it when I am not socializing at all. Any ambiverts here that are able to relate?

I feel like everyone in this thread is mad at the extraverts. As an ambivert, I would love to speak in their defense. They help hold the world together. They are catalysts for new ideas. If the whole world were introverts, you’d have a lot of people who are just experts in one of two things and they would never talk to each other. When experts in different fields interact, we get some of the best ideas.
@oldskoolmusicnostalgia3 жыл бұрын
It's not exactly a convincing defense you've given there. Introverts may be experts in "one of two things" (sic), but the one thing you're the expert is producing most lazy clichés in one paragraph 👏 not sure how that leads to the generation of the "best ideas"? You also forget one key difference. Introverts are essentially self-reliant and can live without the stimulation of other people. Extroverts can't, they need interaction. There is one category there that would be helpless without the other, and it's not the one you think.

@@oldskoolmusicnostalgia Would you mind rewording your first paragraph? I couldn’t understand what you were trying to say after you quoted “one or two things.” Extroverts and introverts need each other just as much. You think that since extraverts acknowledge their need for people, they need introverts and not vise versa. This is false. For one thing, all humans need other humans. For another, extraverts can spend all of their time with other extraverts same as introverts can hide in their holes and never come out. The world needs both. There is a website, (I don’t remember what it’s called, but I read a book about it) where people can post problems from their field of study and anyone can answer. Most of the answers were from people of slightly different fields. The spread of ideas is a powerful thing. I don’t understand why you’re being so mean, by the way. I hope you feel better soon.

I think it's incredibly hard not to be' shy when you're an introvert. I'm an introvert. And since I don't spend much time around my peers, I get nervous around them. It's easier for me to talk to older people and people generally older than me because they tend to be calmer and slower when they talk as opposed to my peers who jump from subject to subject and expect you to talk fast and keep up with them. This gives me social anxiety cause I end up either mumbling mumbo jumbo or putting on a facade. I find it difficult to jump from topic to topic and would rather make deep meaningful conversations with older people.
