ARE YOU MORE OF AN INTROVERT OR AN EXTROVERT?

in #personality5 years ago


I have always heard of introversion and #extroversion but I have never really tried to fit myself into any of these traits until someone I met in my new club popped the question. According to him I looked like an introvert because I kept mute throughout our meeting. Does that really makes me an introvert? Well I think am not really an introvert, everyone acts introverted at sometimes and extroverted at other times depending on their mood,hence there is no such thing as a pure introvert or extrovert. So the question should be "How you more of an introvert than an extrovert?". To answer this question,one has to go through some of the traits of an introvert to find out if he/she possess such trait. It is important to note that every introvert or extrovert are not exactly the same,as humans we all possess our differences.
Let's take a look at some of the traits of an #introvert

  1. An introvert usually like a small group of close friends rather than a large circle of friends
  2. He enjoys having time to himself,prefers his quiet time than socializing with others
  3. He prefers to sit and let others take the center stage,not in a rush to always be in the limelight.
  4. People with more trait of introversion prefers to keep their views or opinions about something to themselves until when asked about it.
  5. They find it difficult to initiate a friendly conversation with strangers or causal contacts.
  6. Most introverts tend to reflect quietly on a problem and come up with a solution on their own.
  7. They listen well, think and talk later.
  8. Some introvert express themselves better in writing.
    The above traits are some of the signs of #introversion.

  • An #extrovert prefers to go out and socialize with friends
  • He sees spending time alone and thinking boring
  • He prefers to talk to people about his problems rather than trying to solve it alone.

    Just like I said earlier, no one is purely an introvert or extrovert, everyone acts introverted sometimes and extroverted other times.it now depends on how much of an introvert or extrovert you are. Also posted on my other blog
