    I voted introvert because I enjoy having alone time and I'm usually reserved around people I don't know very well. I even feel shy on J13!

  • I think I'm somewhere in the middle, maybe?
  • I think I'm somewhere in the middle.. But it also depends on the situation.
  • Definite introvert. But I play a pretty good extrovert when I have to - mostly at work functions and meetings.

    Same here!
  • Definitely an extrovert! Interesting because I wasn't always. I was as a child, but moving from Nebraska to Pittsburgh, I got teased incessantly and became very quiet (I had NO sense of humor). Then I joined band, and later I got addicted to MUDs in the 90s, and kind of came out of my shell again. Now it's hard to shut me up and I'm more than slightly narcissistic. I get insanely excited when some one tags me here or on Facebook. I actually thought many of you were extroverts as well, and I'd venture to say that some of you are situational extroverts. :) the bump gives you wiiiiings!
  • I got introvert, too.  I think DH is the extrovert in our relationship...I give him so much crap all the time about being so social, having way too many friends on FB, etc. But that's one of the first things that attracted me to him--I was happy to let him do the talking and to be the listener!

    I am an introvert. I need my me time.
  • I'm an introvert and I definitely agree. I've always been that way.

    I am about as far introvert as they come.  I've got social skills and have no problems with public speaking -- but being around people (esp more than 1-2 I know well) wears me out.
    Exactly this. I actually love public speaking...because I don't have to interact that much with all the people! Hah!

  • Introvert. I love public speaking and am assertive and articulate, but too much socializing wears me down. And I actually just finished reading Quiet (see link in OP). I recommend it for everyone. It made me feel less apologetic for being myself.

  • I'm a special snowflake.

    I can be both. I can't make up my mind, I usually have to perceive what side is best to bring out given the circumstance.

  • Right in the middle. I'm with @Aiylin‌ I bring out what's appropriate for the situation.

  • I think I'm an extrovert. I'll take the quiz and see.
    Maybe others who have met me would weigh in.

  • Extrovert once I get to know ppl. Petty reserved and shy at first.
  • Introvert.

    I LOL'ed at, "I let my calls go to voicemail."

    I never answer my phone.

    I'm an introvert. While I can be quite social in settings, it wears me out. I actually spent the day at the auto show for work last year and was very good chatting with customers all day and being social, but I was EXHAUSTED afterwards.

    I had a client once who was a total extrovert. We would travel for TV commercial shoots and he literally could not be in his hotel room unless it was for sleeping. Go go go. After three weeks of it I was so spent...I just needed to be alone. I ended up skipping out on a couple of dinners just so I could eat room service by myself in my bathrobe.

    Come to think of it, looking at life now, that sounds like heaven :)
  • Myers Briggs says introvert. I agree. I can be social and even enjoy it, but I do tend to be reserved.

  • Somewhere in the middle with a tendency toward being introverted.

  • I thought in the middle.. Quiz says extrovert, probably depends on the situation I'm in
  • I bet 99% of the people in my life would say I'm an extrovert. I consider myself an introvert. I internalize most things and am not big on sharing my feelings. I require lots of me time.

    I'm excellent at talking to people and am very social when in a situation that requires it, but it definitely exhausts me to even think about it. I need my time alone to recharge. My mom always said it was because I was the most interesting person to me :)
