We all come across like a bunch of extroverts in this sub-forum. But what's the real deal? Yeah, people at work think I'm funny and outgoing. However, I like my own company an awful lot. I like a lot of quiet time and dislike crowds and/or crowded places.
So are you really an introvert masquerading as an extrovert? I'm becoming more and more of an introvert. What about you?

Kinda the opposite haha. I used to be an introvert, but I'm becoming more and more extroverted. This is through a concerted effort on my part. I've actually gotten to be well more social than the "average." That said, old ways die hard, and I'm still a bit nervous initially in large social situations, particularly around people I don't know. The key has been learning to shove those feelings aside, because they are mostly initial - by that I mean, once I'm engrossed in the activity, the nervousness subsides.
As for alone time, I enjoy it only very rarely. That said, I do like "low key" time quite a lot. I enjoy big group events, but I like a decent bit of socializing with a small group of close friends, or even one on one with a best bud. I think that small group / one on one time supplants my need for true alone time, particularly when its with someone I'm super close/comfortable with.

I'm just like you. I love and can be an extrovert (for limited amounts of time, though) with certain people (rare finds), but that's not my core.

I'm an Introvert with Extroverted tendencies...lol...I'm like a turtle..I carry my shell to the excitement, and then, poke my head, hands and feet out to see what's going on..hahahahahah, I then, get my fill of the excitement..walk my shell away..and sit in the grass..lol.
I'm very much an extrovert, until it comes to meeting single women I'm interested in. The married ones can't understand why I have a problem.
I guess I should have seen a shrink years ago. I saw a lot of guys like me at university. Bad high school experiences, in my view.
I once read that 90% of our self-esteem has solidified by the time we finish high school. I hope not. I think I changed a lot, for the better, during college and during the time I entered the work force.
