    When you just spend the weekend at your friend's house and had an enjoyable time but you're compelled to lock yourself in when you get home.

    When you've been invited to one of your very best friends eighteenth birthday bash and you get completely ready, drive to the party just to drive past it due to the amount of vehicles in the driveway, and hit the first drive-thru chinese to get dinner and head home for an evening of solitude. It was actually an enjoyable night. :)!

    When you've been at your friends house for a few hours and wonder when it would be least offensive to leave in order to be alone at home.

    When you look like this at a huge party:

    When one of the attorney's in your office refers to you as "the mime secretary".

    When you'd rather not go walking on the public sidewalk in your development at the preferred time of day because you just don't want to pass the local dog-walkers club of 5 women that you know are going to be there.

    After a concert with a group of friends and your roomate you answer honestly when someone asks "Who would rather go home?" - and then get a verbal tongue lashing two days later from your roomate who was looking to spend quality time with her boyfriend; but instead had to drive you home, all unbenownst to you, who just wanted to go home and get some sleep.

    You're acutely aware of the fact that when you enter a store, employees go follow you around and ask if they can help. No, no you cannot help. I will run around this store looking for what's right in front of me for at least half an hour before I come crying to you for help!

    Need to make a call to the doctor's office to set up an appointment? You'd rather pay someone to make the call for you.

    Make a point of getting someone's facebook, email, or cell phone number; never contact them, because you don't know what to say.

    You feel the urge to say "No! Don't stop talking!" too frequently when someone re-directs a question back to you.

    You're standing in line at a grocery store, and the person behind you moves your stuff to the person's grocery stack ahead of you. Don't correct him, just stand there and hold the bananas; he had more stuff anyways and he probably needed the room.

    You're on skype with your extraverted friend, and after a while of talking, you would rather type than talk- but she keeps asking "Y U No talk?" and you can't explain it, so you start talking anyways.

    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
    Yes, I can be obnoxiously talkative at times.

    This. I hate not knowing when to leave sometimes, it just feels like there is no way to do it tactful enough even though you really just want to GTFO.
