please empty your brain below

I like this. It's very me.
My sister keeps telling me to get out more and get a 'life'. Not sure what I've got if it's not a life and I would need proof that this 'life' I would get is better than the one I have now.
Still watching those counts

It's quite possible to have a life staying in... although if you're checking Count 5 you'll see I'm managing to have some life going out too.

So you are.
Mostly checking the tea drinking count and the other one... The one I find intriguing

Ah, it's been a bit of a high-tea day today. And I'm sure you can guess how the intriguing one's progressing.

Nice post DG, the first bit would probably strike a chord with many guys who have to take a bit longer to 'work out who they are' - it did with me.

I think my introversion was externally imposed on me, not something that I was predetermined towards (hmm - now there's a twist). But since I worked out the reasons for it, I've developed a bit of an extrovert side.

I reckon all introverts are just undiscovered extroverts. I reckon this is displayed in the whole 'blogging' thing - yeah, it's a fairly introverted thing to do, but in an extrovert way.

Oh - and solitary is a much better word than 'alone'

Later on tonight I'm going to be standing in the middle of a crowd at a gig in London, so maybe I'm getting more extroverted too. Certainly less solitary.

Quite agree about the 'blogging' thing too. Sticking your private thoughts on the internet for all to read is at least vaguely extrovert and at worst ostentatious, but it's still something an introvert can do without ever meeting the people who read them.

You'd think so wouldn't you? Except I'm going to be stuck in the Vauxhall Tavern on Sunday surrounded by London gay bloggers - should be fairly interesting...

I suspect introverts only visit the RVT in the summer when they can sit safely out of the way on that grassy knoll.

I do recognise the introvert's definition of work as being similar to mine!

I wanted to comment on how I recognised a decent proportion of this in myself, but I wanted to wait until all the fuss had died down.

On the other hand, isn't it true that many extroverts will profess that deep down, they're shy and socially anxious? If we take shyness and social anxiety as basic human conditions, perhaps extroverts and introverts only differ in their attempts to cope with it? And perhaps also this helps to explain why introverts can sometimes be outrageous.

I'll go away now...

I would not like to be an extrovert- and I am unanimous in that.
