Any Extroverts on Here...?

[Mayor Monday]

I saw the forum about introverts, and figured this would be an interesting question, too. By test result standards, I'm an ENTJ (not that it's 100% reliable, but fun to say nonetheless)

I know there may not be as many extroverts on here as introverts, which is fine. I am definitely not 100% extroverted- I enjoy to stay home more than leaving, I like to keep to myself, and I personally don't wish to make any real-life friends or join in popular activities. I'm homeschooled, too, and I love it. I choose not to join any sort of sport or club. I do what I like on my own. Socializing not only brings drama, but the immaturity of others can just wear you out. Not that I avoid talking to people. I can be super bubbly.

Some people I know call me an 'extroverted introvert'. Anyone else?

I've never taken one of those personality tests in my life and I don't plan to (too lazy ) but I'd say I'm introverted. However, I think I'm pretty good "faking" being an extrovert, or being a situational extrovert lol. If it's for my job or something like that I can turn the switch on pretty quickly because I'm already comfortable in that field of work so I can navigate through those kind of social situations with ease, even though I feel uncomfortable around people. Since I taught at schools before and did gallery work, I had to force myself to be more extroverted to make it in that art community. It does tire me out, but I'll do it if I have to. But when it comes to general socialisation, making friends, hanging out etc. I really rather keep to myself or stay home. There's never a situation where I feel like I need to recharge my energy by being around people or socialising.

me! but i'm more of an ambivert if anything.

Yes! I'm constantly being social. I'll sometimes take a day to myself to recharge, but for the most part I'm always making plans and around other people.

Hm, I'm not very sure. It's partially like dizzy bone's case? When I'm at work I naturally switch and I'm very sociable there. It's not pretending or anything. I think I'm just professional in terms of work.
Then, when I think about what recharges me, it's *cough* playing NL to speak frank. Being engaged in the work on my own heals my exhaustion a lot. I don't feel like hanging out with anyone when I’m in that mode. So I could be introvert? But then, it for sure would make me needing to recharge by interacting with other players if I only keep working all on my own there. Yes, meeting with others recharges me. In that way I'm extrovert? Or is it what's called as ambivert?

An extrovert, but one that is outgoing in an approachable sense as I am very hospitable by nature. I like making people feel comfortable, and welcome with an added touch of silly that isn't deterred of any shameful provocation. In fact I'd say it's what I rely on, so don't give me the boot for having a foot fetish. I like boots thank you.

Yep, I'm an extrovert. They don't seem to be too common to find on here, haha.

My personality type is ENFJ, BTW.

Same, I’m an extrovert, but I’m more of an ambivert to be honest. My personality type is ESFJ/ISFJ

 

[Corrie]

Yep! I'm an ESFP!

Sometimes I like to sit around and do my own thing but if it's for too long I get lonely and crave someone's attention haha.

I'm an extreme extrovert ! I expected most people on here to be introverts, which judging by comment replies on each thread, seems to be the case !

I was always hyper-social growing up, loved pulling embarrassing antics in public and acting for friends, always was playing multiple sports and signing up for new instruments. I really, really like talking, and I think I could strike a conversation with anyone about absolutely anything. I have 0 social anxiety, and in school when there was group projects, I was always the one who would give the speeches. I think I'm the only person I knew growing up who genuinely liked presenting in front of the class, and didn't have any nervousness about it.

My parents were always annoyed too, I would invite an entire group of friends over to our house every single day. And looking back on it, I understand now why they complained---they usually stayed from after school to 2 A.M. !!

I also threw lots of social gatherings and holiday parties, and I'm reading a lot of people here talking about needing to "recharge". For me, if I get exhausted or need to recharge, I can be instantly cured by entering social situations LOL. So I have the opposite problem, I go mad and depressed if I'm by myself for too long; I need people to feel energetic and get through life ~ !

So, yeah, I don't think it's possible to be anymore extroverted.

Last time I did the myers briggs thing I was an enfp. Yeah, I definitely consider myself an extrovert. I get depressed if I don't talk to people for a while...which is most of the time lol.
