I've always considered myself an extrovert. Why shouldn't I? I love inviting people over to my house and being the host (coffee anyone?). I can be extremely talkative sometimes and will say anything that comes to mind. These are the time when I tend to become annoying and obnoxious. At other times though, I don't feel comfortable around people, don't have much to say, and just feel like getting away. This has happened quite a few times here in my house(International Soup House). I don't mind it when people come over (I invited them over didn't I?), I just can't be with them the whole time. I've also noticed that how much sleep I get the night before also effects how much "group" I can take. Two summers ago I asked both my parents if they thought if I was intro or extra. Both of them told me intro. Huh. I guess they know me better than anyone. We lived in a rather large house while visiting the United States so our family members would come together in our home. That house was packed full of people from all ages and sexes. Both my 5th grade year and sophomore year my mom would find me sitting by myself reading a book or listening to music in my room. I'm not anti-social, I just feel tired when there are too many people around and would rather just sit, listen, and think. I like taking walks and talking one on one. I'm not shy, just an introvert!

I think you can be an extrovert who needs a bit of alone time, or an introvert that also likes people. Sorta in between, you know? I'm an introvert, but I'm not antisocial. Same sort of thing...
What defines you as either intro or extra is whether being around people energizes you or drains you. After being around people, I need time to recoup; whereas, my sister needs people to pump her up! We both love being around people. And she needs time to herself from time to time. But I NEED alone time, frequently. :)
