I recognize a fellow introvert when I see one. Well, not exactly "see" in this case, I suppose. I've been on here two months and I still haven't done an intro post. You know, like you're supposed to do. Typical extrovert propaganda advice. ;)
What I find interesting is that I see quite a few introverts sharing their stories to an entire community on a social network. Isn't that an oxymoron or something?
I'm not an introvert in that sense... I'd just rather write to people than talk to them.
Hmmm. Maybe try drinking more beer. When I'm around a bunch of people, I tend to clam up, especially if I don't know the people very well. After about the third beer, I quit giving a shit about what other people think and then you can't get me to shut up. That's probably an exaggeration, but you get the point.
I tried that and wound up an alcoholic- I've been sober almost 30 years now... I think I'll stay alone, but thanks
Sorry, man. That last comment seems a little insensitive when I go back and look at it. I don't mean to make light of your situation. But I can sure see a lot of myself in your description above.
To be honest, I'm really just kind of intrigued by my own behavior on Steemit. I have always avoided Facebook and Twitter and whatever else like the plague, and I've chalked that up to being an introvert. I would never have even offered an opinion on any of those other platforms.
NP... No offense taken!
