Fallacious Myths About Introverts You Should Stop Believin'

Like we all know, some of us are quite different from our friends and in fact, everyone do have their own unique personality. Let's check out the real personality of the introverts, since they'd been criticized by the world because of their 'anti social' way of life. Well, people just don't understand!

ㄨ INTROVERTS DON'T LIKE TO TALK 

This is not true. Introverts just do not talk 'unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Talk about something the introverts are interested in, and they will not shut up for days.

ㄨ INTROVERTS ARE SHY 

Shyness has nothing to do with being an Introvert. Introverts are not necessarily afraid of people. What they need is a reason to the interact. They do not interact for the sake of interacting. If you want to talk to an introvert, just start talking. Do not worry about being polite.

ㄨ INTROVERTS ARE RUDE 
Often introverts do not see any reason for beating around the bush with social pleasantries. They want everyone to just be real and honest. Unfortunately, print isn't accepted into grape settings, so introverts can feel a lot of pressure, which they find it exhausting.

ㄨ INTROVERTS DON'T LIKE PEOPLE 

On the contrary, introverts intensely value the few friends they have. They can count their close friends on just one hand. If you are lucky enough for an introvert to consider you a friend, you probably have a loyal ally for life. Once you have earned their respect as being a person of substance, you're in.

ㄨ INTROVERTS DON'T LIKE TO GO OUT IN PUBLIC 

Nonsense. Introverts just do not like to go out in public for so long. They also like to avoid the complicated activities in public. They're fast learners and they catch up anything so quick so that's why they do not need to be there for so long to "get it". They're ready to go home, recharge, and process it all. In fact, recharging are the absolutely crucial for Introverts.

ㄨ INTROVERTS ALWAYS WANT TO BE ALONE 
Introverts are perfectly comfortable with their own thoughts. They think a lot. Daydreams too. They like to work on problems and solve the puzzles but they can get incredibly lonely if there's nobody to share their discoveries with. They crave for an authentic and sincere connection with one person at a time.

ㄨ INTROVERTS ARE WEIRD 
Introverts are often individualists. They do not follow the crowd. They'd preferred to be valued for their novel ways of living. They think for themselves and because of that, they often challenge the norm. They do not make decision based on the popular or trendy stuff.

ㄨ INTROVERTS ARE ALOOF NERDS 
Introverts are people who primarily look inward, paying close attention to their thoughts and emotions. It's not that they are incapable of paying attention to what's going on around them, it's just their inner world that are much more rewarding and stimulating to them.

ㄨ INTROVERTS DON'T KNOW HOW TO RELAX & HAVE FUN 

Introverts typically relax at home or in nature, not in busy public places. Introverts are not thrill seekers and adrenaline junkies. If there's too much of talking and noises going on, they prefer to shut down. Their brains are too sensitive to the neurotransmitter called Dopamine. Introverts and extroverts have different dominant neuro pathways. Just look it up.

ㄨ INTROVERTS BECOME EXTROVERTS IN THEMSELVES 
A world without introverts would be a world with few scientists, musicians, artists, poets, filmmaker, doctors, mathematicians, writers, and philosophers. That being said, there are still plenty ways for the the extrovert to learn techniques in order to interact with the introverts. (Yes, I reversed these two school terms on purpose to show you how biased our society is). Introverts deserve respect for their natural temperament and contributions to the human race.

So people, no matter what kind of personality you possessed, all you need to understand is that everyone are special in their own character. No one can act your role better than you!
