Filed under “the vanity of seeing yourself explained,” I’m telling you that I liked this list. Even though it’s a list on the internet. This wasn’t a description I’ve seen before, but it feels pretty spot-on for me:

Introverts just don’t like to go out in public FOR AS LONG. They also like to avoid the complications that are involved in public activities. They take in data and experiences very quickly, and as a result, don’t need to be there for long to “get it.” They’re ready to go home, recharge, and process it all. In fact, recharging is absolutely crucial for Introverts.
