introvert, theres a reason im so active on an online forum lmao, i don't get along with a lot of ppl irl either so i guess that confirms it? i wouldn't really say im an introvert when it comes to talking online
I'd say I'm an extrovert. But in a complicated way.
Like I have the personality of most introverts, being quiet and shy and getting anxious about talking to new people. But I NEED people desperately. I follow my mom and younger sister around the house while texting or calling my friends just to keep my energy up and not fall asleep in the kitchen or something.
Being alone for any period of time is enough to freak me out. It's kinda gross, but up until I was like 12 or something I'd leave the bathroom door open whenever I did anything in there out of fear of being all alone in there and I'd continue talking to my family or friends who were nearby. (I know it's not claustrophobia or anything because I used to hide in boxes during hide+seek games and was fine).
If I need to charge up my battery and continue my day with some amount of energy, I facetime with my friends or help my mom do work for an hour or two, and then I'm back to my day!!
I don't necessarily need to talk to people though, I just need to be around them. Whenever I'm in the city walking about by myself or something, I feel great!! The energy and business and the great number of people all over make me feel comfortable and energetic!
Thus why I feel I am an extrovert: although I'm shy and slow to open up to conversations with new people, I need to be surrounded by people to avoid a nervous breakdown or just straight up falling asleep.
[I don't consider myself an ambivert because they're in the middle of introverted and extroverted and their energy levels and such are more related to the situation, whereas I'm always in need of being near people]
A lot of people call me extroverted, and I suppose I can be? I'm loud and silly in a lot of situations- but when it comes to going into those situations myself? I'm introverted. I guess I'd technically be an Ambivert, but I know my social battery likes to drain in the same way an introvert's does. I need to be able to go into a situation on my own accord and be able to leave it whenever I want to.
I can be super outgoing and energized when I'm around friends that im close and comfortable with but if im out and doing stuff all day I get tired quickly & it gets to the point where I get short with people and will cry if someone talks to me. This whole quarantine thing isn't hard for me because im such a homebody and can be content on my own playing acnh, reading, or learning new things online.
I definitely need time away from people to recharge so in that sense I’m more heavily leaning towards introvert but in social situations I can be a social butterfly depending on my mood. So...heavy introvert with splashes of extrovert? I like meeting new people but on my terms lol.
I am a major introvert and having social anxiety doesn't help. I never start conversations, even with people I'm really close to. I never want to go out and do anything. I pretty much accept it and go out only for people I really care about but even then, I need a lot of warning so I can mentally prepare myself and I don't like to stay out long.
Just dinner and a movie can be a draining experience for me and something I don't want to do more than once a month or less. Spending an hour at the grocery store, even though I don't have to talk to anyone, is stressful. Going to work for 8 hours completely wipes me out for the rest of the day.
Sadly, it's why I don't keep in touch with any of my IRL friends and I end up losing them. They always want to do things after work or on the weekends and I need that time to recharge on my own. But I'm okay being on my own, so in the end I think I'm better off without friends since they never understand me.
I'm leaning closer to introvert and not an ambivert. I'm very selective with my friends and will somehow be more extroverted when I'm with people I'm comfortable with (I would invite them to for roadtrips, movies, foodventures, hiking, boardgame sessions, etc.) and talk a ton but otherwise when I'm not with friends or with people I'm not comfortable with, I don't talk much and usually just listen and smile a little or nod the head to show that I'm listening. Social events or gatherings like balls, dances, parties are a big no-no for me, it's very exhaustive and not fun for me, I would kindly reject any invitation. I prefer to stay home and be by myself and detach myself from society for extended periods of time (if I don't have to go out) and it will not affect me (maybe I just enjoy spending time by myself enjoying the things I like to do). Definitely more suited being an introvert but I can be an extrovert when I need to be (most part because my job requires me to be)
I’m a definite introvert. Yesterday I spent a lot of time around people I don’t usually see and then today I slept for 14+ hours lol. It’s not only emotionally draining for me but also makes me want to sleep more than half the day in order to fully recharge.
I like being with people but it's hard to click with people! i make a lot of friends due to proximity i guess. don't talk to most of them during quarantine...

EXTROVERT! I require attention at all cost. Which is why this quarantine is causing me to lose my sanity! haha
Edit: though..I get stressed when I see huge crowds at my job. I get super hot suddenly and nearly pass out! and I also do like to chill in my room alone,, though if my house had no one in it except me i'd freak out! Maybe i'm ambivert..but more on the extrovert side?
I think I'm an extrovert, I don't have problems meeting new people and I rather not be alone, I love gatherings and spending time with people, although I have learn a little about being alone during this quarantine.
