Introvert? Yep…Big Time
You know you are an introvert when…
You’ve been waiting to get together with your bestie, and she texts to cancel and you feel relief! LOL
It has nothing to do with not wanting to get together! I love spending time with bestie J, and you know what the best part is?
She is an introvert too! So she understands! That is priceless to me!
We can be out somewhere together, and one of us can say, “Ok, I’ve had enough, time to go home.”
And the other one says, “I hear that! Me too!”
The other day after she let me know her sofa, blanket and binge watching t.v. programs were calling her, I decided to fire up the googler to look at other introvert traits. Just because I enjoy diving into topics…which is an introvert trait!
Now I know most of these, but it never hurts to reassure yourself.
Amen Moments
The first one I had an Amen Moment about was finding people who are content with quiet.
I need people (when I want people around me) that are ok with just sitting there and knowing to just shut the hell up! No need for idle chit chat.
This is why it’s so important to find a partner that’s comfortable with you being an introvert. My dude is one of those people. We can sit side by side, each doing our own thing and be happy as a herd of kittens alone in a yarn factory!
Unlike a guy I had for a short time that was always awkwardly trying to fill in pauses in conversations. I felt on edge constantly, with my brain racing trying to come up with useless conversations. And not feeling connected enough with him, I couldn’t be bothered wasting my energy on anything of depth.
So short lived it was!
Having space is another Amen Moment!
Space in the way of a room to get away to. I am lucky enough to have a spare room in my little apartment.
I recharge by working on hobbies, I write, or I just sit and spin in my chair! Sincerely…I do…lol
I get energized by being creative! Another introvert trait. Sometimes working away on things until I’m exhausted. But I still feel energized, which is weird?!
Being grateful for a simple life is an Amen Moment for me as well.
No busy schedule to keep, a relaxed and lazy weekend is my idea of fun.
Coffee in the morning, cocktails in the evening with my dude and girls beside me, (cat and dog)
It’s my idea of zen.
These Amen Moments are the ones that stand out to me.
The most important take away for anyone just realizing that they feel the same way, is the fact that it is ok to feel this way.
There is nothing wrong with you!
Let people know…this is who I am, if I can’t “people” some days, don’t take it personally.
I am who I am, take it or leave it.
You will feel amazing and more at peace when you let yourself be your true self.
