    also, on a side note here, i've been wondering, it seems to me that typically introverts don't get stage fright and typically do better with things like public speeches, than extroverts who are always talking. Is it just me?
    Not for me, I'm afraid. Sorry, goose!

    However, I don't get nervous at all if I have some sort of script in my hands, and especially not if my teammates and I have gone through the presentation at least once; only I don't especially enjoy the attention on me as I talk.



    Unfortunately I can't improvise for speeches and presentations at all, and that's when I become very self conscious and lose my voice altogether...

    This also happens whenever I have to sing in front of an audience; and happen to not be in a large group such as a choir. Perhaps this is only because I have some degree of glossophobia?

    I look forward to hearing what you all think on the matter!

    You're offended when very extraverted people say that they are introverts.

    When your birthday is coming up, and you think of ideas for a party... then you laugh that you even considered having a party.

    When you are part of hikikomori.
    When your idea of party is locking yourself in a super-duper-ultra-mega-giga-terribly-dark room and meditate there while others having fun with some random things you don't even know (or maybe, don't even care) about.

    Ah, that sounds familiar.

    When you would rather just spend a day to stay at home, relax, and just have a little me time; especially if it is after a long night of work or being with others. I'd put sleeping in for this too.

    you might be mistaking introvertedness for shyness. people think I'm extraverted as I can talk to people just fine. they just don't notice that I'm exhausted after about an hour and make up excuses to go home.

    As long as we're on a MBTI forum, we need to be clear about what introversion is:

    social anxiety: scared by being around people
    shyness: not comfortable around new people.
    introversion: social activity drains the person of their energy.

    and extraversion: gains energy from social activity.

    if they are always hanging out with others, I'd agree. if they are just chatty in general, it doesn't mean they are extroverts
