Having a general policy of “I just want to be left alone” is too complicated for people to handle.

For me it’s about having something relevant to say.

The urge to talk just so you can make a dumbass point contributes nothing to the conversation.

I hate the notion that being an introvert means to be shy.

You can be talkative, charming, and charismatic and be an introvert. It’s all how you recharge your social battery.

I consider myself to be an introvert, but I am not a shy person. At times I can be, but that has nothing to do with me being introverted, more like being insecure or anxious in that moment.

I love hanging with my friends, talking to new people, going to open mics or karaoke but when I do, I need time to myself, recharge, and be alone for a few days afterwards.

Does a library count?

I know! like what the effing loving fuck?!? shut up about how completely perfect your life is except when you have to talk to diane at the office when…/s

Because Pingu has his arms crossed??

You mean making the zone uncomfortable for them

This is so good.
