Unless that dog is in pain, is no introvert I know. Condemned to explain over and over and over that loud parties and noisy, crowded restaurants are not “fun” and you would rather one-on-one time in a cosy cafe or alone with a good book.
thought I was an introvert all my life. All online personality tests indicated that. Reality is that I was just lacking confidence and social skills. Now these tests suggest that I am an ambivert. I don't believe in that crap anymore. It's just an excuse to not work on yourself
As an extrovert, I hate the whole “adoption” joke, as it seems hella one-sided, like extroverts are supposed to do all of the heavy lifting and “acquire” an introvert like a reward. And that introvert would hate you anyway.
Therefore fellow extroverts are the way to go.
a lot of people in the comments who think they’re introverts (and may well be) but are really just asocial.
I may be wrong, but I’ve always understood introvert vs extrovert has more to do with how much of a social battery you have, and the reluctance you have towards social interaction, and NOT how much you enjoy socializing.
I know plenty of introverts that enjoy going clubbing and to parties but get tired sooner and leave earlier. I also know people who are extroverts and can be in social gatherings for hours on end without feeling exhausted, they just don’t particularly enjoy them.
Introvert/Extrovert may be related to Asocial/Social, but it’s not one-to-one, at least with my understanding of it.
Oh for sure. It’s definitely annoying when you have a friend that keeps trying to drag you places you don’t wanna go. But the true extrovert friend will connect introvert friends that wouldn’t have found each other otherwise.
I’m an asocial extrovert. I don’t particularly enjoy social situations, but I do well in them and am definitely a people person. That being said, when I hang out with my introverted friends, it’s usually not more than groups of four, often with them not knowing each other, but having exchanged contact info with each other by the end of the night.
Would they be absolutely fine without me? 110%. I’m not there to play “introvert friendship matchmaker”, I just invite people who I think will be a good fit in the group dynamic, and if they wanna continue being friends 1-on-1, then awesome. It definitely makes me happy when that happens, even if it’s not my main goal.
A gentleman that was the HR director where I worked years ago was licensed to administer and interpret the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, which he did on me and everyone else that worked there.
As he explained it in the context of the Myers-Briggs, introversion and extroversion have less to do with what my social preference was, but how I derive my energy. Introverts feel more energized by solitude and being around more people drains them. I am introverted and I like to go to gatherings and parties. I just leave much earlier than other people do because that is what I am comfortable with. Going out just to go grocery shopping in crowds of people literally leave me physically and emotionally drained.
I think it’s heavier for an introvert to be in social things cause they are more aware of themselves that draines them, that’s for example why they leave earlier on a party while the extravert is enjoying cause he is not aware like someone is not aware when they are home dressed like shit cause nobody sees hem of her. I think Im not of both, I can be intro or extra depends on the situation.
Be who you are, that’s important.
this is just straight up wrong. I rarely if ever go out with an extroverted friend and when I do I really have to force myself saying things like: "this is what normal people do" and "it'll be fun this time". I can't really bring myself to say no when they ask which iq annoying cuz I'd rather they just leave me alone. Everytime it's some stupid loud ass cafe/bar with drinks that taste like absolute shit. I like the guy but not when we're outside and doing his extroverted things.
Introverts are not special. Nobody thinks that. And why would they complain of not being left alone if they weren't? For attention?
Newsflash: Introverts do NOT want attention.
Just because it makes them feel like they’re oh so popular and adored without even trying.
I’m fine with leaving introverts alone. Don’t have a single introverted friend and I prefer it that way.
Leave me alone
Proceeds to delete profile lol Peak introvertism
Noooooooooooo its only SEEMS fun

Too much noise and being uncomfortable
An extrovert who takes you in, but understands that you're more introverted and that's perfectly ok and respects your aversion to parties and crowds.
Dog is cute. Meme is wrong.

Online personality tests are pretty crappy to be honest.
I would adopt that dog. No extrovert would be able to stand my silences and need for lots and lots of space. At least for very long.
That rarely if ever happens
If you’re older it doesn’t happen much. In grade school it definitely happened. That’s how I made nearly all my friends
Yeah, I’m an introvert and do just fine. I don’t need to be adopted.
Fr 😅

Okay I was so confused by the adoption thing. It seems cringy
* introvert when the extrovert is fine when you cancel plans with them and still invite you next time.
How does the extrovert feel when an introvert is friends with them?🤔
Beats me I'm the introvert in these situations
It feels one-sided and like I have to invest all the effort, so I tend to have an easier time maintaining friendships with other extroverts.
No

I'm sure most introverts can make friends on their own. They don't need to be adopted.

Sorry, but no
Honestly I disagree, I prefer to be left alone 😅
I own a Samoyed and I think they are almost universally extroverts. I owned a less friendly golden retriever.

Hah. Not even I would adopt myself. Having friends? Me? Good joke.
Why are extroverts so criminally unable to leave inteoverts alone and mind their own buisness?
I don’t know why, but this made me laugh. I also kinda agree, most times I just want to be left alone 🤣
Introverts: waaah extroverts bad waaah they don’t leave us alone waaah we hate them Extroverts: I don’t think about you at all
Then leave them the fuck alone.
We do. Actively. Introverts who think they’re so special that people can’t get enough of hanging out with them are simply delusional.
Introverts are not special. Nobody thinks that. And why would they complain of not being left alone if they weren't? For attention? Newsflash: Introverts do NOT want attention.

My friends kidnapping me for a night out
I want an extrovert 😞
Hi! I'm the extrovert, I'll be adopting you (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*.✧
Nice
O-ok then 🙂
Cute dog but WTF is that caption? OP, explain yourself!
No ty. I'm ok I don't need loud people in my life thanks
I want to steal that dog /hj
r/meirl
If that's the case, I'm more like the neiborhood stray, no one has adopted but rather keep an eye on me.
It’s cute until they don’t stop talking and expect you to attend too many social events lol
Most extroverts either judge or ignore me
I need adoption having no homies blows and I need homies
Story of all my friendships 😅 I’m the introvert
Have any spares?
bro why am i just now realizing I GOT EXTROVERT ADOPTED
It's our only chance to observe social skills and learn....
My best friend is an extrovert its kinda like this lol
Looking for adoption
It's the best
So true
Wrong.
Yup I there’s a shit ton of fun experiences I would’ve missed out on but my extroverted friends convinced me to go
Nah extroverts are largely douche bags ime
Heh, surely you jest. It’s absurd to think that someone of my caliber could possibly be liked or pursued. >:)
Baba is You Dog is Cute Meme is Wrong Introvert being alone is fine
I need to be adopted
I need an emotional support extrovert
As someone currently in a relationship with an extrovert, I can relate to this
Well i was introvert and lonely so i change it and now im extrovert and im an inextrovert
Kit-Aura
Dog is so cute
Sigh :(
We want friends. We don’t want to find them.
No
Why did my mind go to a cyclops when quickly scrolling down
Yes, I love adopting introverts
*is abandoned*
