i can be very shy around people i don't know and in a large group i always dissapear because i'm so quietIntroverts are thought of as more shy and reserved. They like smaller social circles and appreciate time alone.
Extroverts are generally more outgoing. They enjoy hanging out in large groups and may be the type to get antsy when forced to spend time alone.
There's a lot more to it than that, but that's a fairly bareboned description and should be enough to participate in the polls! Hope that helps!

I've been a resident assistant, case manager, I'm currently a server, so I take on extroverted responsibilities and jobs. At the end of the day, however, I just want to be alone. If I'm around people too much I need "me time" to make up for it.
Yeah me too. I started this thread thinking there were more extroverts at TCS than there really are!Originally Posted by Kellyyfaber
I'm definitely an extrovert most of the time, a pervert some of the time. If I'm in a pissy mood, I become an introvert for everyone else's safetyI'm very very surprised there are so many introverts!! Everyone seems so outgoing!!
Well, I'm very introverted, but I'm just as self conscious offline as I am online. In a way, I find it slightly harder here because everything I say is written in stone in front of anyone who happens to be reading.Originally Posted by ash_bct
Just a thought (and question of anyone would like to answer the extrovert here)...
Is it possibly easier to "let go" and be yourself when you aren't face to face with the person/people you are talking to? I have a great friend who is so introverted she might as well be inside out!But you put her in front of a computer or on the phone and she can let out the "wild" inside. She is no where near as self-concious when not in front of others.
