always makes me laugh when introverts think they're superior to extroverts though and that they're oh so intelligent and extroverts are party animals that fling their shit everywhere

I believe I am a mix of Introvert and Extrovert.
I enjoy my time by myself, but also with others.

This forevz, especially since the actual difference is in how you present yourself and nothing to do with how often you go out etc... Realistically, stating to the world that you're an introvert is an extroverted act :P

i disagree with you both, you could easily say that people claiming they are extroverts do so only because they look down on people who are introverted as socially awkward?

introvert = happy in ones own company
extrovert = desire to be around people

thats my view, who literally cares. can't believe you guys are judging people BASED ON WHAT THEY THINK THEY ARE
if they say they're an extrovert they're an extrovert, if they say they're introverted then they are. you're not inside their head :rolleyes:

[FlyingJesus]

That's literally not the meaning of the word though
