Indeed we do :biggrin: (Theres a new blog post up, dont know if youve seen it)
Ah right ok then,
Yeah me too! What type are you? Im an ISTP!


Yeah, I've seen it and it was great as always :smile:
I'm INFJ, and is seemingly the rarest of all :u:
I'd say I'm introverted usually but slightly extroverted when I'm with friends. Once I get to know people I'm quite extroverted around them.

For some reason, most people say to me that I'm such a quiet guy yet all my friends tell me that I talk way too much. So I get told off a lot by teachers for talking in class and they're always like "you're so quiet, why do you talk so much?"

I don't think you know the differences between 'extraversion' and being 'sociable'. Intro/Extra is about where you source your energy from a) solitude or b) social activity.

Some of my mutual friends don't believe I'm introverted. I think this is because I've built up a safe space in some classes where I'm verrrry extroverted and outgoing. The ones who did eventually find out I'm actually socially crippled where those who witnessed 'the-time-where-we-went-to-another-school-on-a-weekly-basis-and-i-compared-us-to-gazelles-the-whole-bloody-time-while-hiding-behind-them-like-ze-coward-i-am'.

Shyness =/= introversion

Oh... then I'd say I'm probably more introverted.

does any of you feel like they are both?

I can never decide if i am an extrovert or introvert because there are sometimes when I like to keep to myself, i want piece, no one around.. and there are times when I'm the heart of the party..

It takes a lot of energy from me being with too many people, so I guess I thought I was introverted. I'm not very informed on this (really, all I have is an mbti result of infp to go on, which may or may not be true)
Introverted. Introversion =/= quiet. It means gaining energy from one on one activities. An introvert is very capable of being an outgoing introvert.
They just need more breaks to "charge".

Introvert. The second choice doesn't really make any sense, as being an introvert or an extrovert does not mean you are a quiet or loud person respectively.

I'm an introvert who poses as an extrovert. I put myself into social situations a lot but they drain me so much mentally.
I like my 'alone time' and prefer being in small groups but I'm not afraid to go to a party and get myself known to everyone etc. what am I? I have traits of both i think
Both extro and intro at the right times

Same here tbh! There are lots of really nice people on here and everyone makes you feel welcome so it's a lot easier to fit in I've found! :tongue:
