being introverted can be a gift and a curse.

[Flay Mayweather]

Outside of 2 Uncles, my grandmother (who i live with), cousin, parents and sis no one else speaks to me. I don't even know why i go to family functions because they act like I don't exist. I remember going to my Uncle's Thanksgiving party and no one knew I was in the bathroom while they said the prayer so I just stayed upstairs until I got hungry. Hell even the family reunion last month, all my cousins around my age would chill and talk amongst themselves but I wasn't included even though I attempted to make small talk. They talked to my sister though

It's funny though, every time I go somewhere I'm always reminded to "talk to people" and "be social" but i'm like "yeah ok ". I could careless and idgaf. I don't even know why I have a FB, Instagram, Twitter etc. when no one talks to me on there. I just use those outlets to tell my mother what people from my school have been up to or just to see for myself how they're doing. Hell I have a total of like 6 likes on my Instagram and I have 20+ pics. Last time someone wrote on my Wall on FB was my cousin who took a pic of me at the family reunion which was almost 3 months ago

Bruh

This is sad

Nah, it's pretty easy. The thing is that it probably won't last at all due to obvious circumstances.

Superficial things will always attract women and she will stay a little longer if the dikk is good but they will eventually they all get bored and leave.

so i basically gotta find the female equivalent of me,what are the odds of her actually
being attractive tho

I think a mail order bride would be perfect for you @BlackieRobinson

But honestly tho, high expectations = high disappointments if you fail.

Low expectations = less disappointment because you doesn't matter if you win/lose.

Talk to them with low expectations, to make it easier, talk to them like you know them.....

i'm pretty sure if you're a message board, you're an introvert.

Lets be honest.

nah, But I will tell something Introverts come online to get the feeling of extroverts. which points to the fact that "introverted" is not normal.

"Wise men listen and laugh, while fools talk"

Introverts make the best analysts...

We fukking study everything...

Your dog and cat analogy is spot-on! If anyone is self-centered its extroverts. They think everyone thinks like them and wants to talk to them and about the stuff they want to talk about. They rarely listen well.

i get tired of hearing someone constantly run their mouth...especially if it's only about themselves. i went on a trip recently and had to deal with someone like that for 3 days. it's so fukking annoying you just want to reach over and back hand them. there's nothing wrong with talking...but did your parents not give you attention when you were younger?

Some people just talk too fukking much. They love hearing the sound of their own voice. I will say that a lot of you people who say you don't like small talk just sound stuck up OD. Talk to people, what's the worse that can happen

I stay in cuz I don't drink alcohol and nobody wants to be the only sober breh at a party. Clubs are too loud and dark ( #MidnightBoyz ) so it's w/e. I also stay in a lot cuz I really don't want to put myself in a situation where someone talks slick and I go full Cloutier and end up getting booked. Such is life

My biggest problem with Introverts is seen the quotes above. All of you socially akward folk are so damn arrogant. Y'all don't do anything better than anyone else.

And the fact that I like to be around folk and go out make memories and new friends doesn't mean that Im doing and talking about worthless things.

 

[Disclosure]

no social media accounts at all

same here. Its impossible for me to look at social media as "an opportunity to socialize online", to me they are another energy draining obligation that I dont want. Every once in a while I'll google my own name just for that feeling of satisfaction and relief when I confirm my online presence is pretty much nonexistent unless you go out of your way to hire a private detective or something, you wont even find a picture of me

The Coli is the closest thing I have to an online presence

 

[3rdWorld]

Not sure if I fall under Anti-social or Introverted.

You're not gonna believe this, but I actually had to teach public speaking for a year when I first started my phd program. I taught all of these undergrads how to speak better in public. Lol.

I'm actually good at public speaking (probably cuz they forced me to do it for a living for a year). You just gotta prepare.

Definitely take a public speaking class. You'll see that EVERYBODY is nervous. I mean EVERYBODY. Extroverts and Introverts alike.

Public speaking is all about being prepared and organization. That's it. PPT is also a great crutch you can use that still makes you look very professional (great PPT slides really keep the focus off of you and onto the info on your slides)

You'll fukking hate the class, but it is a trait that will benefit you greatly in life. I can't speak more highly of public speaking. And this comes from a MAJOR introvert.

Cosign this. Despite my shyness, introversion and social anxiety , surprisingly I am great with public speaking. I guess it's because I have a reason to say something and when I do have to make a speech I heavily prepare for it.



My teachers and professors have always been adamant about my writing skills being amongst the best they've ever seen I've had classes where the whole class would fail a writing assignment with the exception of me. My teacher said "Your writing is excellent, you should be a writer some day"


It makes sense though, they say what you lack in one area you gain in other areas and because of my introversion I'm able to analyze and dissect things on another level from most people. Being as introspective as I am allows me reach places no other people could reach, I get lost in my own thoughts

You're assuming introverts don't go out and make memories. I think a lot of people are confusing introversion with being a loner or having social anxiety. I'm an introvert in a great relationship and I have a tight knit of friends. I like to travel, kayak, do karaoke, and yes, hang out with my friends. However, I have a time limit on how long I can do these things because being around people drain me. That doesn't mean I don't go out and make memories, it just means, I need down time after I do.

I actually write songs in my off time as a hobby and I've been doing it since high school where everybody was tryna rap to some point. The difference was that I didn't want nikkas to know I was writing because it was personal to me, like a journal where I shared some of my deepest thoughts. Plus I'm not trying to be a rapper, nor did I want the stigma of being another nikka tryna rap. Till this day I don't really share it with everyone because I'm not ready to. But I've written some shyt in my catalogue that makes myself go it's like I have these zones that I get into where I black out and write crazy shyt. I've shared pieces of it to some of my nikkas and they instantly go Dudes tell me I need to go record all of my shyt in a studio but I've yet to do it yet, something in my head keeps telling me don't share it with the world yet. Everybody knows that I write pretty much but they don't know the level that I'm really on. Till this day this is the one part of my life that remains an absolute secret to everyone. I contemplate everyday whether I should release it or keep it to myself.

Me too breh, same exact story except me and a neighbor actually tried the rap group thing. We only made 4 songs and they were mostly "club oriented" aka not the music I wanted to make so I quit after 6 months. I got songs i've wrote on 2 broken laptops, 2 notebooks, and my Macbook since 08. I always thought about being a ghostwriter or something but I've never pursued it. I still have my mic though...
