The Inside Scoop On Your Introvert Friends

This article talks about people who are introverted and gives some insight to why they may do some of the things they do. 

For example, some introverts might pay more attention to their actions so they can have more of an understanding of what they are doing, and why they are doing it. Also, some introverts aren't as outspoken as extroverts can be, and tend to surround themselves with a few close friends instead of many aquiantances.
My question to the class is do you think of yourself as more of an introvert or an extrovert? And if you consider yourself an introvert do you agree with some of the characteristics in the article?

I think of myself as more of an introvert than an extrovert. However, i have some of the characteristics of an extrovert. I do agree with some of the characteristics from the article such as, introverts might go somewhere for a little while and not stay for a long time. Although, the article aslo stated that many introverts keep to themselves and have few aquantinces and that is not the case for me. Therefore, I think of myself as both an introvert and extrovert.

I think of myself as an introvert and an extrovert. Based on who I am with I change. When I am with my friends and I am comfortable around them I have no problem being loud and goofy but when I'm in a group with people I don't really talk to or I just met I keep to myself much more. Unlike extroverts, I don't always need to be going, going, going, or constantly needing someone to talk to. I rather have a small group of close friends then having a bunch of casual friends because I can rely on them more and it's a lot less drama.

I think of myself as an outgoing introvert because I can be shy in various situations. For example, at parties or dances if I am with my small group of friends, i am more outgoing but if I don't have many friends with me, I'm not outgoing enough to push my way into a new group.

I think of myself as more of an introvert, even though i do have some extrovert tendencies. I do agree with the example that introverts do not like to talk to people as much, because if i have to talk to someone on the phone, i would rather text them than calling them, i also don't like to stay in one place very long.
