Hey everyone
So I've been more than a little confused lately..as to whether im an introvert or extrovert with avoidant issues.
The thing is, I LIKE being constantly on the go and the sense of purpose it gives. I always feel like I have to be doing something..whether it's taking in a performance, hosting a party/event, going on thrill rides, learning stuff, getting work done(yes, I procrastinate sometimes, but that's when I'm tired). I think I'm more expressive than your average introvert..I used to post constant FB status updates when I had FB and do that all the time on twitter(well whenever I have something to say). I can be extremely wild, crazy, and in your face with friends, but with strangers or parents, or even just coworkers, it's tough. They know I'm flamboyant, but not loud. Just a quiet sort of flamboyant..
I LIVE for thrill-seeking and can totally feed off adrenaline. I enjoy big cities and the "rush" atmosphere..as long as I get some "peace-time" at the end of the day, but once I do, I'm ready to go at it again. I read that introverts get energy from being alone, extroverts with people. But I'm really not sure..what I meant by "peace-time" is just relaxing by myself or with one other person..as long as it's quiet. I need the "peace-time" otherwise I'm tired. I love amusement park rides, being spontaneous and impulsive, and doing things on the spur of the moment. If it helps, I'm enneatype 5w4. I'm pretty assertive and have no problem expressing my opinions, and I can *sometimes* go up to talk to strangers( this RARELY happens, most of the time I'm too shy.) I hate parties and the loudness that comes with them..I'd rather have something like a party but without the loud noisy music and people vomiting everywhere(how the heck is that fun?!) I'm a private person and find it difficult to trust people..it's always been that way. But I'm all for being energized. I like to tease..I hate attention though. ABSOLUTELY hate it. It makes me nervous and scared, and I find myself afraid of people sometimes.
As much as I hate to party dorm-room style, I'm all for your more sophisticated type of parties..such as cocktail or tea parties. I enjoy hosting those.
I often wish I was this social lady with lots of confidence and candor.
So..if any more info is required, I'll post up more. I hope this is good enough.
