Answer 2

..being an introvert is not a negative trait

being naturally introverted means you are selective with what special people you open up to and share yourself with

you are calm, think things through before being aggressive or assertive

you may find a way to express yourself without talking to others also like writing, art, music

just because you are an introvert doesnt mean you will always be either..being an extrovert has its advantages also.

Answer 3

You can entertain yourself without bothering others.  Live simple, quiet lives.

Answer 4

I'm one.  And I don't have an answer to that.  I just know I get "ignored" a lot.

Answer 5

Introverts usually don't go to partys, night clubs, and are usually not confrontational. You do not open yourself up to attacks. You tend to experience less rejection, but also experience less successes, in most cases.

Answer 6

Possibly, introverts, because we are focused on ourselves more often, notice our own faults more frequently than extroverts.  Maybe, because of this, we spend more time trying to improve ourselves.  Perhaps we cause fewer problems and have less stressful lives........i hope so!

Answer 11

Not much drama.  Once you become an extrovert, you have a lot of drama.  Less chances of STDs, etc.

Answer 12

We don't get scared or annoyed when alone, and we aren't loud jerks anywhere near as often as extroverts. We also think about our answers more carefully before answering, and are much better listeners.

Answer 13

You focus on yourself more than necessary. It can lead to great personal accomplishments in the areas of writing or jewelry making, for example.

Answer 14

Well...you don't say things that you'll regret, you don't share your deep secrets for others to blab.

I think the disadvantages outnumber the advantages though.

Answer 15

you can survive more than extroverts. if--hypothetically speaking--the world was destroyed and you were the only one left, then you would be able to survive. extroverts would die because they don't have anyone to talk with.

Answer 16

People will always judge and be critical, but true introverts possess eternal Faith, Grace, Peace, Hope and Serenity.

Answer 17

people won't judge you :)

Answer 18

No one will ever notice you.....I guess.

Answer 19

An introvert reflects emotions within (compare with extroverts, who reflect to the outside). Introverts are quiet, take a little time to meet friends. Their trust to themselves is somewhat rocky, as their trust to others. However, they are more understanding and mature about things, with the exception of the extrovert, who will get into trouble by not shutting their pie holes :) An introvert will be more quiet, more realistic about their surroundings, but their emotions are locked; be EMOTIONALLY prepared to talk to one. However,introvert people's secrets are revealing and shocking, but exciting.

P.S: I have both things :)

Answer 20

You get to spend a lot of time with yourself.

You can hate yourself as much as you like.

You decide who makes the decisions.

You can be as popular as anyone in your own mind.

When you die you know you'll be alone.

You can be a legend in your own mind.

Answer 21

You dont have to talk to people?

Answer 22

You don't need other people - you could be on a deserted island and be perfectly happy with your own company

Answer 23

You can hear and perceive more than people who are too busy talking.  You can learn vicariously by listening and observing others.

The downside is that if you don't take risks then you can't learn as much from personal experience.

Answer 24

You're not one of those extroverted people who think they're better than you because they're popular.

Answer 25

im happy as one. (sometimes extroverts dont understand though)

Answer 26

There are none...

They're all a bunch of d**n party poopers...

(Just kidding...I love youze guyz...)

Answer 27

When you are having a bad hair day no one notices ...

Answer 28

an introvert can easily accomplish things like learning instruments. accomplishing work, dealing with pettie[sp?] problems among other beifets.

Keep in mind, an introvert dosen't nessesicarily[sp?] have to always keep to themself. an introvert can binge on friendlieness whenever they want.

an introvert should never lock themself out of the world. instead they ought to spend less time on making friendsips and such things as partying and other popular.

use it as a chance to improve yourself, not a way to get away.

Answer 29
