I am very outgoing until other people are around.

I hate when in bed with 3 chicks, and the least attractive one whispers in your ear, "save it for me.."

When people don't walk up the escalators and there's clearly a bunch of people behind them waiting to pass

You obviously don't understand what an introvert is.

If something good happens to me, I'm not the type to be bouncing off the walls saying "yippee! woohoo! alright!" I might be doing that on the inside, while still processing it and internalizing it. Extroverts don't get that and think we're not happy.

What I mean is that if you were an introvert on here, you wouldn't post.

Absolutely do. There are several types of social inversion though, the majority of which are related to social phobias. But not all are.

Right. Another version is you work things out internally vs externally.

Correct. Some are far more stimulated within vs external social interaction. My older brother is a true introvert.

After working with people all day/week, I don't always have the energy or interest to engage with strangers in conversation during evenings and weekends while going out to eat, shopping, etc.

1. Bad spellers


Spelling, grammar, table manners, hygiene, matching clothes, yes ma'am, yes sir...

Basically a bunch of little stuff my parents taught me that was the norm in the 80's but apparently not for most people. I'm so glad my north Alabama raised wife got on board quickly and we raised our children the right way.

I'm by no means an introvert though. I love having conversations, but I can take a hint. I'm also pretty good at finding common ground with another person and getting him to talk about his interests.

Along those same lines, it's really annoying trying to have a conversation with someone who is only interested speaking and not listening.

Call it a social phobia, but I in general do not like being around other people if nothing is "going on". For example, I rode my bike with a local group this morning. I enjoy the ride and I'll chit chat about things related to the ride or things that are interesting in general. But afterwards, most stay and grab a coffee and hang out for a while. I have no desire to sit there for 45 minutes with people I regularly don't hang out with. I just don't like small talk.

Even my close relationships with people are like that. I have friends that absolutely cannot watch TV at home alone on a weeknight. He has to call someone. I on the other hand hate sitting sound being bored with other people. I'd rather do that alone. Now if there was something worth doing, I'm no loner. But I'm not a fan of just hanging with people to not be alone. Only a select few people have gotten that close with me to be bored with and one of them is my wife.

The assumption in the OP is that this is about true introverts.
