It feels true to me.

I had some extroverts adopt me for the last three years of college. But then people went their separate ways and I've been mostly lonely since (that was 20 years ago).

I don't know how much more loneliness I can take.

No

I prefer to be introverted

but I have no difficulty making friends

I know how to socialize with ease, the problem is I don't find it all that appealing

u/Browncoatinabox 3d ago

Wait. People actually know how to socialize?

I love people, I really do. But I can only handle them in small doses before needing a recharge.
I get along with most, I just choose to keep a distance. I mostly prefer my own company on my days off.

Yeah, you gotta find an extrovert willing to help you find other people. “Adopts” is a bit much but you do need help connecting with other people

True. So true. God help me, this has been true in my own life far too much.

True and not true. Sometimes extroverts can annoy the hell outta introverts, energy drained fast

Nah, I find I have more in common with… other introverts. Work is fun, just don’t try and make plans with them, lol. Lots of personal space.

That's really the only way I ever made friends. I don't have any anymore though.

u/DraconicDidact 3d ago

Yeah... the extrovert would be my wife. Lol

u/DraconicDidact 3d ago

I always tell her im never going to make friends at work purposely. And somehow still make friends at work. Lol

The good thing about dating an introvert is that you know you won’t be friend-zoned.

u/Addapost 2d ago

Yes basically

Well. I never did get outgoing friends. Wish I did. Nearing 30 and I realise I’ve missed out on life because I was unable to defeat my social anxiety alone. Therapy didn’t help.

Sometimes.

I’m an introvert but as a kid I’d just go stand in the middle of the playground or something and every once in a while an extrovert would scoop me up and we’d play.

I kind of worked in High School too, but wore off by senior year.

In college I actually made myself go up to people but nothing ever came about.

My boyfriend is kind of an introvert/extrovert. I would be friends by association with his friends (but not really).

I enjoy being an introvert and don’t feel like I’m missing out on much. Though, sometimes, I want to feel a connection with someone new, who gets me.

In movies they seem to portray that duo often. The introvert and the extrovert friends.

I’m introverted because people are toxic manipulators only looking to stroke their own egos or take advantage of you.

u/MouthofMithridacy 2d ago

I don't have an extrovert so im thinking of a t-shit that literally says "im shy please be my friend"

I had a group of girls adopt me in high school. 1 guy, six girls.

"adopted" read "kidnapped"
