Things You wanted to Know about Introverts but were Afraid to Ask
What's an introvert? An introvert is a person who frequently needs to spend time away from other people. Take me for example. If I am forced to stay around people for longer than I can stand, I'll become as cranky as an old dog. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy people, I just need some time alone to "recharge". Unfortunately, most extroverted people don't understand this critical point, and it causes a lot of misunderstanding. Introverts need to spend time with their thoughts, quietly thinking about stuff. They usually feel uneasy in social gatherings which they find exhausting, because their social skills aren't already built-in, they are painstakingly learnt and are often imperfect and tiring to use.

In a social setting, a typical introvert who's tired of interacting with people will just sit there silently and think about stuff. When you see an introvert lost in thought, please don't say What's the matter? or Are you all right?, it's very annoying.
