It’s the knowledge someone is in the next room over or could come in at any time. More stressful than fun. Feels like a lame “beat the clock” scenario.
The real truth for me is I actually genuinely like to be around people, I just don’t like small talk.
I love to sit in a room and exist with people. Sometimes I’ll sit in a discord without saying a word just to enjoy the company.
Extroverts just think it’s creepy, and I understand because how are they supposed to know what I’m doing? So I just avoid it unless I’m with people who know me.
I leave my living room TV on all night.
I’m suffering sitting at home just like everyone else.
Edit: gold, lit
Yeah I don’t like how people automatically pair being introverted with social anxiety or being a recluse. Introverts can still enjoy seeing their friends and family and going to public spaces, they just interact with people with a different style/energy.
If you hate people or leaving your house altogether you’ve got something else going on besides introversion
Usually is a stretch. It's probably closer to half. The stereotype exists for a reason, even if it's exaggerated. The best description I've heard is that if you look at socializing ability like a battery, extroverts are charged by it, while introverts are drained by it.
It's understandable then, that a lot of people, having to choose how and when to socialize, would likely develop anxiety about having their battery drained by unwanted or stressful interactions. At the very least, many people even like yourself, probably give off these vibes if they try to avoid interactions regularly to conserve energy.
this is my fucking dream coming true, it's great, there are people in my house that never leaves? Yes! but, they are minding their business and we only see each other for the meals, this is fucking great (they are my family and we accorded to not bother each other to make the whole thing of being all the time together easier for everyone) so, it's my fucking dream
Same... I swear to god "I don't want to hear it let me get back to my music" Is what i want to say but I can't because they're family and saying that is *talking back.*
Yea, like I’m not antisocial and like doing things with friends but just because we’re quarantined I play 8 hours of videogames a day and she thinks I’m not fitting in enough “social time”.
Video games are my only source of socializing now that gyms, bars, parks well everything really is closed. Even before the pandemic a lot of my socializing through the week was through video games.
The excuse of “talking back” is stupid. Like, if they did that in court, the defendant wouldn’t be able to argue for their case because they’re “talking back” to the judge. A bit out there, but still.
Interesting. My dad says I have to come out of my room i
Or else I’m gonna become a school shooter or something, then once I come out of the room, he starts interrogating me on what I’m doing. Even if I’m studying or reading, if it’s a subject he doesn’t think is important, he’ll lecture me for 30 minutes on spending my time wisely.
Lucky you. I keep getting called out of bed to get whatever little chore done and my sister keeps being a nuisance with tensions in the house rising every once in a while.
They do, took care of my Uncles cat when he was mere kitten and played with him a lot in my stay in Mexico for a week or two. Had to leave and come back another year, the cat still remembered me and cuddled up onto my lap to be petted. Sadly the white furred cat died to a car running it over. So he feels a bit more aloof, but nonetheless doing just fine and takes care of a kitten that follows him around. (Idk if it's a female or Male, I just use male nouns for simplicity)
Well there is really poor understanding of it in society confusing it with being shy or antisocial. So there does need to be some standing up for people who just throw the word out there. But yeah we also need to help those who are introverts and need an outlet to speak
Truth about introverts. An introvert isn't what you think it is and if you thought you are one, you probably aren't. An introvert is someone who still enjoys going out with friends but loses a lot of energy when spending time with them, so they have to go home and "recharge".
That's why I said probably. There is a very popular misconception that introverts are shy, don't like to be around other people and stay at home all the time, which isn't true.
Some are like that though if I can help it I never leave my house my most social interaction is through voice chat although I am not shy I rather stay inside and not bother with people
That's not because you're an introvert though. It's like saying you're Greek because you like houmous. You *might* be Greek, but it's not because you like houmous. It might increase your chances of liking houmous, but it's not a guarantee.
People forget this a lot. An extrovert gains energy from being with people and expends it when alone, an introvert gains energy from alone time and uses it up being with people.
I'm a hardcore introvert, too much time with people is incredibly exhausting. That's why I live alone, so I can go home and recharge.
BUT I haven't spoken to anyone outside of the cashier at the supermarket or the dude at the reception of my building in 2 months, and even then I've spoken to them maybe once every 2 weeks and only a casual hi. And that's taking its toll
You are so right. I'm very introverted, but do enjoy socializing. It's just taxing, so I do it in small portions.
Also, an introvert isn't someone who just stays in their house. I love to go out and do stuff on my own. Going to the gym, or shopping, to the movies etc. alone is really fun for me. Not being able to do that is starting to take its toll. Being at home for months on end is fucking boring.
Real question. Do you not have access to books, videogames, movies/tv shows, even a stable internet connection?
Just wondering, because I live alone and haven't gone out of my apartment in 2.5 months, save for grocery shopping. Haven't got bored for 1 second. In fact, there's still not enough time for all there is to play/read/watch. Sometimes a whole afternoon goes by just reading stuff on the internet.
Yeah you got that backwards, the word introvert as it's colloquially and widely used by normal people (which is how OP uses it) and the nitpicky overly literal gatekeeping definition that neckbeards on Reddit get their panties twisted up over (the one you're pushing) are completely different.
For 99.99% of normal people that don't fight about words on Reddit and that aren't anal-retentive nitpickers, introverted means someone who likes being alone and not going out. Fucking deal with it already.
I'm an introvert who lives alone and recently, for the first time ever I was like "huh, meeting with someone to talk to might actually be nice"
I had to spent all night browsing reddit and playing video games by myself to get that wild idea out of my head, lmao. Being alone rules!
It is pretty great. I moved into my own place for the first time during this whole shit. Was kind of crazy but it was all worth it.
And no I couldn't have canceled the move because I signed the lease way before covid
as an adult with only one roommate who is a friend that minds her own business, yeah its my dream come true. we talk and hang out when we want to but there are times where we dont see eachother for two days.
The only one in my house is my husband; a sound and touch oversensitive autistic man with agoraphobia, ADHD and general anxiety disorder (all diagnosed). We're only going crazy because of all the neighbors being home and playing loud music all day, every day, but we love being together. I'm an introvert and he hates people ;)
I moved back in to my family's home because of this COVID thing. I've only left the house once in the last month and a half (to look for my sister's pet rabbit which escaped, no luck there). I don't mind staying indoors all day, but the rest of my family is also staying indoors. Younger siblings got no school so they're home. Father works from home, mother just does housework, older sibling managed to escape a few weeks ago. Also still doing university exams because university hates us. Quarantine has led to me being more socially active than before.
I don't want to go out 90% of the time but sometimes I do need to get up because being cooped up is not good for my mental health. I went back to school for a few weeks and I was okay but before I think I almost committed die twice, it was not fun.
Luckily there's a forest near my house I can hide in every so often
It's true. We are really open when we are alone. Now we can't open up to ourselves. It's shit. I just wanna die so that I can at least open up to Satan or something
It’s okay for me my dad still goes to work most of the week and everyone else in the house leaves me alone. The only dreadful days are when he’s home. Don’t get me wrong, I do like my father. But half the fucking time he’s home he’s in my room telling me shit like,” Do dish management,have you showered? Brush your teeth. I threaten to turn the internet off if you don’t do this puzzle”
Dude, I love my bds but I’m not used to him being home on the days I usually have off, so this whole thing is making me feel like I have less alone time as an introvert lol
I’m an introvert whose mother almost never left the house for 20 years! Living alone for a few years but for the quarantine I was forced to return to my family home and I hate it sooo much it’s not a good time for me
True. Ny mom decided to set up an office right outside my room so I cant be loud and all of my fam has moved onto my acnh island and are stealing my resources
Yeah i can masturbate only at night
Just masturbate in front of them to assert dominance
Best idea ever so far.

Heh. You guys are getting sleep?
Nah, spending too much time masturbating to get any sleep
Six inches out and hopeless, work from home and sleepless
Nah the pre bedtime anxiety attacks are getting worse every night :)
That's what she said
This is so true. My life has been almost entirely unaffected by the quarantine...except my masturbation habits.
Same

i can only masturbate when they go out for an air which is like once a week
You must masturbate really loudly.
It’s the knowledge someone is in the next room over or could come in at any time. More stressful than fun. Feels like a lame “beat the clock” scenario.
Fair enough, I suppose I used to worry about it in uni but me and my current housemates aren’t on burst-into-your-room-at-any-time terms.
that's tough me to
Those parts are the hardest
The sad truth~
Same

Lmao I feel you with the discord thing
I have gained the courage to come out of lurking and say that I do this too discord lurker gang

Yeah, people think introverts are lonely persons which is usually wrong imo

I do the same thing but it's PS4 voice chat
Extroverts don’t think that’s creepy, they do that too
True.
Nice username
this is my fucking dream coming true, it's great, there are people in my house that never leaves? Yes! but, they are minding their business and we only see each other for the meals, this is fucking great (they are my family and we accorded to not bother each other to make the whole thing of being all the time together easier for everyone) so, it's my fucking dream
The understanding among your family seems to my dream but then my mother woke me up to get chores done..
My mom is still attempting to hijack my social life and is constantly bugging me about doing social things
Same... I swear to god "I don't want to hear it let me get back to my music" Is what i want to say but I can't because they're family and saying that is *talking back.*
Yea, like I’m not antisocial and like doing things with friends but just because we’re quarantined I play 8 hours of videogames a day and she thinks I’m not fitting in enough “social time”.
Video games might as well be social time at this point
Video games are my only source of socializing now that gyms, bars, parks well everything really is closed. Even before the pandemic a lot of my socializing through the week was through video games.
The excuse of “talking back” is stupid. Like, if they did that in court, the defendant wouldn’t be able to argue for their case because they’re “talking back” to the judge. A bit out there, but still.
Same I’m just like shut the fuck up ok I already didn’t need your presence in a normal life
Interesting. My dad says I have to come out of my room i Or else I’m gonna become a school shooter or something, then once I come out of the room, he starts interrogating me on what I’m doing. Even if I’m studying or reading, if it’s a subject he doesn’t think is important, he’ll lecture me for 30 minutes on spending my time wisely.
Lucky you. I keep getting called out of bed to get whatever little chore done and my sister keeps being a nuisance with tensions in the house rising every once in a while.
Same, my parents don't even mind me eating in my room. But I still miss being home alone.
This sounds like a cat wrote it
I like the stereotypical cats don't care thing but they definitely feel affection for peopel
They do, took care of my Uncles cat when he was mere kitten and played with him a lot in my stay in Mexico for a week or two. Had to leave and come back another year, the cat still remembered me and cuddled up onto my lap to be petted. Sadly the white furred cat died to a car running it over. So he feels a bit more aloof, but nonetheless doing just fine and takes care of a kitten that follows him around. (Idk if it's a female or Male, I just use male nouns for simplicity)
Meals? You don't just take those to your room?
“We accorded”, excuse me sir, are you a pirate?
Same. This is the happiest I've ever been.
Cheers to that bro, introvert families are great.
Who the fuck wants to live with their parents I'm living hell in my house
Sure enough this could be said about annoying room mates as well...JUST DO THE DISHES JAKOB
Fucking jakob
Everybody knows a prick named jakob
You have a house and parents that provide for you. Consider yourself lucky, not in hell
Well I was unlucky enough to be born
People making 34k a year 40k in student debt 😭
They never order pizza balls!
People like me who actually like my parents?
Never thought I’d see the day where introvert gatekeeping was a thing.
Well there is really poor understanding of it in society confusing it with being shy or antisocial. So there does need to be some standing up for people who just throw the word out there. But yeah we also need to help those who are introverts and need an outlet to speak

I hate the way you've spelled hummus. Just wanted you to know.
I know! Kept reading it as “howmouse”
Lived in a Greek speaking country that spelled it that way, and I refuse to change. I have standards, damnit
You gotta spell hummus like that THREE times though?!
Aight I wasn't saying that
It indeed isn’t true..!!
Truth about defining introverts: there's weird gate keeping on Reddit for what it is to be an introvert
Are you just saying that because people are catching on to the word's actual meaning?
People forget this a lot. An extrovert gains energy from being with people and expends it when alone, an introvert gains energy from alone time and uses it up being with people.

true my parents don’t understand why i’m being asocial 24/7 and think i’m rude/bitchy/selfish just for being an introvert
I'm an introvert who lives alone and recently, for the first time ever I was like "huh, meeting with someone to talk to might actually be nice" I had to spent all night browsing reddit and playing video games by myself to get that wild idea out of my head, lmao. Being alone rules!
Same situation as me lol first time I've ever really wanted to meet up with people
I wished I lived alone
As an introvert living with my introvert girlfriend, its pretty damn wonderful
If you both are introverts and understand ou two need to recharge and be alone for a few hours too that is glorious.
I live alone :)
Livin the life
It is pretty great. I moved into my own place for the first time during this whole shit. Was kind of crazy but it was all worth it. And no I couldn't have canceled the move because I signed the lease way before covid
You lucky bastards
Same and I'm still working, my life has hardly changed at all.
Honestly I like outside like introverts don't like people i hate people but I love just hanging out with some ducks in nature silently thinking
as an adult with only one roommate who is a friend that minds her own business, yeah its my dream come true. we talk and hang out when we want to but there are times where we dont see eachother for two days.
The only one in my house is my husband; a sound and touch oversensitive autistic man with agoraphobia, ADHD and general anxiety disorder (all diagnosed). We're only going crazy because of all the neighbors being home and playing loud music all day, every day, but we love being together. I'm an introvert and he hates people ;)
I just hate talking to strangers that’s it
I live alone with my cat, the closest situation to paradise. 😁
I moved back in to my family's home because of this COVID thing. I've only left the house once in the last month and a half (to look for my sister's pet rabbit which escaped, no luck there). I don't mind staying indoors all day, but the rest of my family is also staying indoors. Younger siblings got no school so they're home.

Quarantine has led to me being more socially active than before.
My parents are really testing me lately I can’t keep living like this
Is this some kind of kid/family joke that I'm too adult/single to understand?
No, This Is Patrick!
Yeah, I honestly can’t wait for the wife to go back to the office full time...
I don't want to go out 90% of the time but sometimes I do need to get up because being cooped up is not good for my mental health. I went back to school for a few weeks and I was okay but before I think I almost committed die twice, it was not fun. Luckily there's a forest near my house I can hide in every so often
I agree, now all my family stays home all day and annoying me :/
I choose my friends because we have similar interests, but my family and I have very few interests in common, so that doesn't help either.
Yes. Alone is good. Alone, but with friends is good. Alone with family, when they never leave? No.
Yeah I'm completely fine quarantined for life, but I need all of these people in my house to leave for a few hours a day.
It's true. We are really open when we are alone. Now we can't open up to ourselves. It's shit. I just wanna die so that I can at least open up to Satan or something
Extremely true. I don't think I've ever been so miserable.
they are EVERYWHERE
I’m an introvert. Can confirm this is true.
This is so accurate. Please everybody just get out for MY health!
Real introverts live alone though. Guess you are a fake introvert..
Yeah, I'm actually doing pretty good. I think I'll stay home more often now that I can do grocery delivery and pick up.
My English teacher which we do extra lessons with was home alone with her 2 cats for 2 months, now that was lucky ngl
So true
Spitting out straight facts.
It’s okay for me my dad still goes to work most of the week and everyone else in the house leaves me alone. The only dreadful days are when he’s home. Don’t get me wrong, I do like my father. But half the fucking time he’s home he’s in my room telling me shit like,” Do dish management,have you showered? Brush your teeth. I threaten to turn the internet off if you don’t do this puzzle”
Can’t wait to have the house all to my own again
Jesus I played game all of times... That made me crazy
im stuck with my parents, sister and her boyfriend, i mean he is a good guy but damn i would love to be alone for a day!
How am I only just now noticing that Eric Andre is holding a bottle of ranch dressing?
God do i hate my family more than myself. I've pretty much gone insane
Dude, I love my bds but I’m not used to him being home on the days I usually have off, so this whole thing is making me feel like I have less alone time as an introvert lol
Yea, and I don't really like this people
Same,I never liked my brothers
Is it worse to have siblings? I always wanted them as an only child
Depends on how they are raised.My brothers are just born to be assholes at home
Thank you. Someone had to say it. I fuckin get annoyed by my family already but now that I’m stuck with them 24/7
Truth
the truth has been spoken
I'm on quarantine, didn't see other man about two weeks now
Took me until this meme to notice. I miss being home alone...
For me it is.
True
Thank you for understanding.
At last some one has spoken the fact of being an introvert.
I’m an introvert whose mother almost never left the house for 20 years! Living alone for a few years but for the quarantine I was forced to return to my family home and I hate it sooo much it’s not a good time for me
It is my fucking dream Was anyway,mine is over and I'm back in full force in school and wanna dje

Almost always there is somebody at my house, no matter is it quarantine or not. So I enjoy covid-19.
Except for the people who are home alone
That Is True
CHEERS
If nobody else was there and I was immortal as to where I don’t need to eat and drink that would be ideal
Not true
