As an introvert, I must say this article perfectly describes US.
I've tried severally to stay more extroverted most of the time but I truly enjoy being an introvert in the end.
To cut the story short, everything you said here is true. Thanks for sharing
I agree with all your points, as an Introvert myself. Though I'm trying to be more open in terms of talking these days.
