It drains my energy to be honest. They all want to socalize 24/7. I want to socalize for 30 minutes max.
Don’t get me wrong, I do love my family. But it’s mentally draining when they want to get together multiple times a week. Im fine with once or twice a month.
I live with my grandma and she is the biggest extrovert ever. I’m the complete opposite.
I’m a highly sensitive introvert myself, but, I’m learning to push my comfort zone by trying to socialize more. I hardly have any family that I keep in touch with, so, I know I need to.
The best part of the pandemic for me was watching the authorities arrest extroverts for breaking health restrictions so they could shove themselves into the faces of other people. Sucks to have to live in a world not designed for you, eh, fellas?
Some extroverts aren’t high energy. I know some that are extroverted but also laid back. I like those people because they are usually warm and friendly. Sometimes it’s okay to be the listener in a group, if you are introverted. Most extroverts have no problem carrying the conversation so you can just sit back and listen. It can be overwhelming though, if you don’t like that.
