Are you an extrovert or an introvert? or what

We used to have this thread but it was killed with the B-Wipe.

And I don't remember what everyone is.

So tell me

I think I'm in the middle but I definitely lean introvert. So I voted for the somewhat introverted option.

I have bursts of both. But intro feels like my more comfortable default.

extrovert

I am an extreme extrovert and wish it was more balanced for me

Intro. My batteries run out pretty fast in public.

I love hanging out with one or sometimes two people, but any more than that is sheer tedium and any real conversation grinds to a halt. No one is honest in groups of more than 3.

Yes. Same.

That feels a bit extreme but I kinda get what you mean.

I can be quite extrovert. Both in company meetings, family dinners, out drinking with friends, I can be the one who talks the most. For big birthdays (or sadly funerals), I have often held speeches. It’s also easy for me with new people, or engaging in both small talk, or proper discussions.

Still I voted somewhat introvert. I am happiest at home with my family, and if there are no major plans for a weekend, I spend most of my time with them. I enjoy working from home two days a week, and sometimes just have lunch at my desk at work. I used to go to all company events and parties (both in previous jobs and this one), but now often cancel/decline because of having to look after my daughter, and no tears are shed on my part.

Wife at work, kid sleeping, I’ll be happy to play a game or watch a movie alone, and will probably enjoy myself more, than if I was out partying (but that could also be an age thing).

Introvert. I tend to keep to myself and don’t do great in group settings. Probably made worse by hearing loss. I really have a hard time in noisy settings and can’t really hear anyone unless they’re sitting right next to me.
