10 Things I Love About Being An Introvert

    1. I never feel lonely when I'm doing something alone.

    2. I have never-ending entertainment just by getting lost in the thoughts in my head.

    4. I don't feel like I need anyone in my life. When someone is in my life it is because I want them there, not because I need them there.

    5. When I was younger, calling myself an introvert was a point of shame. Nowadays, it seems to make people more interested in me.

    9. I am more than happy to avoid other people's drama.

    10. I much, much prefer written communication over verbal communication, which allows me time to think through my responses to people rather than be more reactive.

This is a great list! Whats interesting to me is that I completely agree with #10, but I consider myself an extrovert.

Thanks Sophia! There is something special about being able to pause and reflect when writing. If you are anything like me, even as an extrovert, you probably never write an email or post anything online without giving the words careful thought. Yet when we speak we just blurt stuff out with no editing. Written communication is so much more polished and thoughtful!

Hmm I had you pinned as an extrovert, Younes. I guess I was wrong, but I am very happy to know we are in the same club!

I natural introvert here. I just make effort to move in the spectrum to the other side. 😄
