Introvert

I have been called weird and crazy.  Some have suggested that I lack social skills.  Maybe this is true, but I believe I'm just an introvert.  An introvert is a person who is energized by being alone and whose energy is drained by being around other people.  Introverts are hard to get to know and may feel uncomfortable around other people who they don't know well. 

Other characteristics of an introvert include:
  • Very self-aware
  • Thoughtful
  • Enjoys understanding details
  • Interested in self-knowledge and self-understanding
  • Tends to keep emotions private
  • Quiet and reserved in large groups or around unfamiliar people
  • More sociable and gregarious around people they know well
  • Learns well through observation
Introverts make up about 25 percent of the population, that's why we are not easily understood by most.  Here's a quick video that sums up our personality:
