The cutting part is the part where you are introverted. When you record the videos in front of the camera it's like the part where you can express yourself to the world, the extroverted part. So it seems like it depends on what you are doing or what you want to do.
Reasons for not talking: 1) I have nothing to say. 2) I'm deep in my thoughts. 3) I'm too mentally drained to talk. 4) I don't want to interrupt you. 5) I'm intimidated.
And not to mention the anxiety before the social event. I also had you teach 3 classes straight this week and I was drained from people. But I'm a great teacher. It's just afterwards I need a recharge completely alone.
That’s bullshit you don’t need to talk much but talk , be someone that when people sit next to you they are comfortable. If you think like in life your not thinking straight
Literally bro, my friend asked me “why don’t you talk in class?” (we sit on opposite sides of the room and he’s the only one I know I’m that class) and I said “because nobody’s said anything to me” and he said “you know you can start conversations too right?” I can’t start conversations for the life of me
I believe introverts usually value deeper connection and meaning than most extroverts, whether its with people or themselves or within the world around them.
Anna Mikulin bruhhhh Im a complete extrovert and this is false. I mean cmon, yall dont even talk to people. I have a lot of friends but its the true friends that are important. Its not just exclusive to u guys...
Legit I don’t contact my best friends ever until they decide to contact me which happens to be almost everyday haha since they are extroverted , and in terms of that deeper connection I won’t lie I hadn’t found a gf or a girl I truly liked for 4 years till a month ago and I found out she is so similar in many ways and it makes me happy she understands that I cherish my alone time which during that time I listen to podcasts and draw since my dream is to become a concept artist and so when during the end of our days she calls me it becomes the best talks ever and it feels awesome to have that deep connection whether it be morals , life , family and friends etc. anyway I went on a rant sorry about that reader haha whoever you are reader have an awesome day ! And if you are extroverted , introverted or maybe both just know you are an awesome person , don’t let anyone tell ya different. 🙌
Why I love spending time alone - - no one judge you for small things. - no one is there of disturb. - no one is there to discourage you. - You can be what you are really.
@@fernandoroberts3591 And the reason for it being that way is probably because people irl or in the internet have criticized or talked shit about you before and now your mind just subconsciously keeps repeating them. Basically you have been brainwashed yo believe you are not good enough.
Well said, though I think the reason is that outside in real life there is everything, and lots of it. On the internet we're basically mostly on topics (posts, forums, videos...) that we enjoy or relate to.
I'm introverted and I struggle a lot with making small talk. Meaningful conversations are more my forte but because I can't do small talk that well it just never really gets to that point
I can relate. I fell like not being authentic when doing smalltalk because it doesn't really interest me so a lot of times I don't even make the effort of smalltalk and that can probably seem rude or not interested in the person at all.
I have come to realize that the people who make small talk all the time aren't worth getting to know on a deeper level. Most people I know who make small talk do so because it keeps the focus of conversation on them, and it's exhausting hearing someone talk about themselves all the time. You will find people worth connecting with, it just takes time and a willingness to spend time with others.
That's why I liked living in Japan; they're very respectful of introverts. In America, you're perceived as a psychopath if you don't talk with people all the time. Edit: Fixed the wording of the last sentence. I didn't mean to say that introverted Americans *are* psychopaths, but rather the *perception* of introverts in America is that there's something wrong with them, aka they're psychopaths.
@-- - Absolutely! I did make a lot of videos when I was stationed out there from 2013-2015. Right now, I'm working on getting accepted into a university out in Tokyo so I can study abroad next year. In the meantime, I'm also doing a series called Andy Talks Japandy that I'll be making more episodes of after this semester wraps up this week!
reasons I don't talk to people: - I don't trust them - I fear that they would hate me - I think i make a fool out of myself - I just fear people (they are too difficult to understand and totally unrelatable) Edit: seeing all this comments of people who feel the same thing i do is very reassuring that i'm not alone..but it's messed up in its own way...I wish this never happened to anyone even if the price to pay would be only me going through this...I hope we all get through this..Sending tons of love to everyone who needs it. You matter. Don't give up!
It’s not like I don’t like people, I love when I can have a good conversation with someone. It’s just that I hate meeting new people. I’m horrible at starting conversations and keeping them going. I’m so awkward and I also despise small talk.
Being an introvert has many advantages: - as you’re okay being alone you don’t jump from relationship to relationship by fear of being single - you value quality over quantity when it comes to friends - you can have fun even if you’re alone - you can appear smarter than you are because you take the time to think before speaking and don’t say all the stupid things that come to your mind
My favourite thing is being alone because when you are alone you can do anything, dance, sing and etc. also you can lay on the floor stare at the window, listen to your favourite songs which probably will cause sadness to other ppl (that’s why i dont show my music to anyone) and just chill and no one will think that you are psycho 🤷♀️
@@hhjj7 I think there is also another type called ambivert - which is a combination of being an extrovert and introvert depending on the situation you are in. I identify myself as an ambivert. I love being alone and doing my things, but at the same time I get so energized by connecting deeply with others. You might also be an ambivert :)
Yesss I feel like there's not enough room. Like so many people are talking and I have to balance it out some way, so I'm quiet. The more people there are, the higher the expectations are for me. I feel like I have to have something REALLY important to say to butt into something so many people are paying attention to, and trying to get THEIR two cents in
Damn ! or for example iam with my friend that i know a long time and then 2 of his friends join us, and rom that moment i dont speak much even if i was totally extrovertive few minutes ago.
People when I don’t talk: “Why are you so quiet? Am I talking to myself?” People when I actually talk: *silence* or “Sorry what did you say?” “Nevermind”
So many times I'd be around people that are the stereotypical "OMG did you see / hear this" or overhear conversations around me that communicates literally 0 information, and I will feel like I have nothing to add to the conversation. Seems like it's not just me like this
People think I'm an introvert because I don't talk much, really I'm just absorbing the conversations around me and don't feel like talking. Not because I'm shy or reserved. Because I don't want to talk, and listening to other conversations is much more interesting than engaging in one myself.
reasons i dont like talking to people: .they annoy me .they are usually very loud .they dont like the same things i do .they think that their opinion is right all the time .they put too much time trying to convince me that what i think and do to my life is wrong even tho it doesnt affect on them at any level (i dont do anything to harm me or anyone else, im just not like them in terms of clothes, ideas, art...)
That's exactly what I'm going through right now ...n i can tell it really annoying. Just hate the fact that they think what they does or say r always right
Them: why don’t you talk more. Me: I don’t know sometimes I- *gets cut off* Edit: Woah I never expected to get so much attention. But to everyone commenting the key I found is to step of your comfort zone and always be the first to break awkward silence. And sometimes you need to sound excited just because the average introvert sounds very monotone. It helps getting people to pay attention. Idk just things I found.
It's the same with me. When I talk people will interrupt me and I won't talk at all again. Sometimes it's kinda make me feels like I'm not important and no one is going to listen to me.
The most frustrating thing about being introverted is the perception that you're rude, boring or stuck up. This is not so. I could sit with the right person for hours. My husband isn't someone who speaks a lot but he's an extrovert, and I don't speak to people much because I get bored, but when I met my husband, we spoke until the very next day, woke up three hours later, met at 5a.m. And continued speaking. Then met later again that night for coffee and went on a road trip together the week after. The right people allow a beautiful blossoming, and one should never feel obligated to share that with everyone just because it's the social norm or expectation. Thank you for making this video. I hope it helps others understand.
Tell me about it, that's why i like being with people that have known me and i don't always like meeting new people because it takes people a while to understand me the way i really am. That's also why i instantly love people who get me and trust that i'm not rude or think i'm better than others because im quiet.
I love how almost nobody in the comments talks about the video. Every introvert in here is just happy to see that there are people like them, and is commenting personal staff that people like them can relate to :) (Sorry for my bad english)
I'm an introvert and my aunt's an extrovert, so anytime there is even a second of silence, she fills it by telling these long ass 30 minute stories and I'm just like _why are you torturing me_
well yes that's obviously when it's the easiest. But as higher minds we are required to bring different emotions to all situations, even the ones where we are uncomfortable, and if we are able to raise the level of perception among others then .. oh shoot this is getting too deep for this page lolol... but trust me
same tho, at school I'm really confident, talking to everyone, and a lil loud with my friends and having fun and stuff, and if I ever go out in public like at a restaurant, store, mall, etc. with my parents or older brother I'm like completely on mute, and I kinda shy away from anyone and everyone and talk in like a quiet and soft voice lmao. Oh, and family reunions, really quiet there too lel.
The thing that sucks is that people often think that you need “fixing” when really I’m happy being introverted and there is nothing wrong with that, or me.
I'm not socially awkward, I don't feel nervous if I have to speak in public, I just don't like to be with people in general, sometimes not even with my family. It's like being with people drains my energy and make me feel tired.
Me too, people think that I'm pretty shy but... I just don't want to talk with them, and I have no problem speaking in public, I like it. People should begin to differentiate shyness from being introverted.
Same here 😅 But most of people find this awkward (even family). It's affect me that I cannot respond to other peers expectation. I got better and often say that I don't want to go out. But still It's not easy
Sometimes I feel like there is something wrong with me because I don't seek out my friends and family. I'm known to stay in my room, doing things that I enjoy and soaking in what I choose. It's really nice to know that there are people out there like me and that it IS normal.
Perfectly normal to me. You're not alone. And everything is ok with you. You have just described my favourite way of spending summer holidays when adults were like "go out, play basketball with other kids" and I was like "oh, no, I'm finally in here on my own with so many books to read, drawings to draw, new things to learn on my own, music to listen to...". ;-)
when i was a little girl i talked so much. id frequently get in trouble at school for talking so much and sometimes i wonder what happened. your comment made me realize that i talk just as much, only in my head.
Kylie Reed omg I’ve told my mom this so many times. I’ll notice the body language and facial expressions that my friends have that no one else notices. I literally called myself an observer
Akane Sasu exactly right. I would sit alone in class and it’s totally fine.... I was never really close with anyone in my class to the point where I could just sit next to them and not overthink about how they’re probably bored or that I’m probably annoying to sit next to because I’m a ‘snob’. But I was still very much interactive so when I sat alone, people would feel sad and sit next to me but that actually makes me feel bad for them. I find comfort in solitude but I’m still very much grateful that they tried to do something nice
This is true for me when I am lost in my thoughts or daydreaming, for example I am sometimes thinking or imagining some interesting scenario in a public place when I am bored and people might say something like: "I know you are bored do you want to go talk about the weather or do a boring job or go outside a bit". Dude, stop interupting my thoughts, they are more important than you. edit: Aka basically Intutives vs Sensors in mbti
I feel more alone when I'm with a group of people more than when I'm with myself. If that makes sense Edit: holy shit did not expect to get so much likes on this
Depression is like a huge punch in the face. I got used to few people I was with in school and now I feel super lonely and sad when I have to be alone..
@@jacobdavidson2995 try to walk with the others sheos, this world is all about working in group, been loud, hanging out with friends that's considered to be normal . It's just something really exhausting, and is not to exclud others (extrovertl) but find ourselves, and peace of mind.
@@jacobdavidson2995 cool, my point is it not discriminatory, considering the fact that, the whole word pushed us to find our energy outside and labeled us weird if we do not.
I find socializing exhausting. I want to have friends, but I always feel like no one really likes me. Yes, I love my solitude but sometimes, I just want to connect with others but I find it so hard to do so, may it be in personal or social media. At 21 yr old, I want to go out more, explore and go to adventures. Some may say, "then go out", but that simple task/activity seems so difficult to do. I don't know why. But I feel like I'm missing out on something. And yes, there have been a lot of awkward interaction that doesnt allow me to sleep at night haha and I just overall avoid interacting with strangers to avoid those scenarios. I love being alone but I want to explore the outside of my comfort zone. I'm still working on this.
I am an Introvert as well and one of my favorite quotes is "Being alone doesn't mean you are lonely". It sums up pretty much everything about the state of mind of introverts.
I hate when my parents force me to interact with my family members ... Like I'll clearly or directly say that I'm uncomfortable and my mom is like shush it's all in your head ..
Many people ask, if I ever feel lonely when I am alone. I never felt lonely when I am alone, I just feel free. I feel lonely when I am with other people...
You know what introvert means: You can't start speaking with someone that you're not close to.. You can't stop talking with someone that you are close with.. Am I right ? Can we hit 5k likes my fellaaaas
Its so true whenever I see my teacher I try to go away just to avoid him/her but other friends I have whenever they see a teacher they start being lousy and like HEY HIII TEACHER Its the most easy way to spot a introvert or extrovert lol
You are not introvert by these symptoms ... you are rather a social phobic bc introverts don't have clinical symptoms like these it's just another type of personality
Disagree majorly. Introvert does not equal and anxiety, awkwardness etc. I'm introverted and I don't feel that way at all. I used to get anxiety heats back but that is a separate issue one has to deal with.
This is factually true. I wish you would respond to this comment so I know I saw your comment and agree wholeheartedly. Meditation is the biggest thing missing from humanity and it totally changed my life.
oof same, my friends have so much drama with each other. he did something bad to him and suddenly the whole group is all over it, like why do they all care so much?
@@xXLeatherFace1 I think thats not true because my introversion always kept me from people that try to abuse me in some way. For these people its way to exhausting to try and get you to actually trust them. But for the pople that like you for who you are it is worth having to spend more time to achieve access to your inner self. And thats the kind of people i would call my friends because i enjoy some small amount of time with them way more than I ever could with some people that I barely know for example at a school party. I'm sure everyone has their own way to look at this but thats just my opinion and experience.
Bro, especially workplace drama from what I've been hearing this summer. I was sitting in the messhall and the one other guy sitting at my table starts a conversation by saying "i wish i were more like you, just keeping my head down, doing my work, and not getting caught up in bullshit." Kinda nice
Brian Abisdid It kinda is, Introversion tends to lead to exhaustion from social events, but during these events they can be the loudest, and seemingly most extroverted person.
I understand u. I am loud in social groups. But I am not comfortable there. I am not comfortable when I am not loud. So I think introverts being loud use this technique for self protection.
@@Blackade2000 SAMEEE....and also i sometimes imagine myself in different scenarios and my convos always sound good in my head😄...nice to know someone out there is like me!
I’m that guy that doesn’t like to talk too much with people,sometimes I don’t talk at all, but when I get to know them better I become that guy that can speak nonstop in topics with a nice way of (story telling). Is it only me or anyone’s too?
Me too. I am 50/50. Want both time alone and with someone and it can sometimes be difficult when I want to be both alone and with someone at the same time
No, it's pretty normal for any introvertic guy. You have just described any boyfriend I ever had. Yes, introvertic girls prefer and usually attract their own kin of guys. And our first dates are usually hours of silence together, whereas relationships usually are hours of interesting, deep discussions that seem neverending. So yeah, to me typical introvertic stuff.
I'm just so tired of faking smile, I'm not a person who smiles a lot. Just because I want people to think nice of me, i appear with a fake extroverted personality. Because they don't accept my true self, my robotic self. I just want people to accept me the way I am. But it's okay I will continue acting like a different person because at the end of the day no one accepts me. I only show my true self to people im comfortable with, but sadly they also don't accept me the way i am.
I relate. My younger teen years were like this, but I cut those people off once I changed schools. Although I have no friends now, I'm much happier and satisfied with life in general as I don't feel the need to keep satisfying others
I feel most alone around people, because I get ignored, ideas dismissed etc. But in my mind no one stops me, no one gets to ignore me. It's just me being me
I feel like now that we’re all social distances it’s actually showing just how advantageous being an introvert is in the fact you can be comfortable in your own company and not rely on others
I'm not gonna lie because of this coronavirus lockdown God I never felt so good i mean now from the last 3 months i'm just in my room doing things that i really care about and getting to know myself better and better without thinking about going out and do things that i really don't like to do but pretend oh yeah i'm enjoying being here.
@@bexter107when i do things for my extrovert friends it feels like i'm a claustrophobic person it's like my inside is keep telling me we don't really wanna do this but my fake self always tells me that you have no choice so most of the times i declined my actual self and do things for them without making them realize that i may look good from my outside but something like electricity is squeezing me from inside everyday or most of the days i guess i think we introvert people go through this kind of situations and wish to express this whole challenges and life and our mind to people who can really listen and understand what we go through and how we as introverts really feel but i found out that in order to understand an introvert you have to be an introvert otherwise they just think that they understand us but actually no they're not they just think they do.
I am an introvert I have never searched for any video related to introverts Still RUclips recommended this video. Interesting! Edit: Omg! Thanks for the likes you lovely introverts out there.
The worst is when you're an introvert who is good at social interaction as a defence mechanism against awkward questions. Then people don't realise you're an introvert and think it's okay to keep constantly interacting with you and you're too scared to say you need to recharge.
@@unoriginalyoutubename8761 Haha, yes, in a way it is. But many a time after the pleasantries are over and I'm waiting for them to move on they seem to like telling me their entire life stories too. Which is more than I bargained for. Comes with being an INFJ maybe? I agree with you though. It is a good thing but I need to see it that way.
As a scropio, I intimidate people with my looks so they don't try yo talk to me, I hate it when people try to interact with me. I faced bullying so many times in my life and not once did I tell my family.Am 20 years now, and have learnt how to ignore people very well.I tried to have friends but they all ended up being fake and for the past few years I have learned how to enjoy only my own company. I hate noise and going out. I always pray for my course mate to cancel the plans too. I only talk when am with my family. I hate it when we have guests at home too
@@PhotoRubio not exactly. i'm happy and i feel peace inside me most of the time. INFP? wasn't that the very emotional one? too emotional? who empathises with people and gets hurt internally because of it?
@@polish3717 INFP's tend to be emotionally driven and effected morso than the other types. -Yes Empathy is one of our super powers. - Yes Hurt and elation as a result are a package deal.
@@PhotoRubio i really have trouble understanding how *one* *type* can be the most empathic, emotional etc., because empathy and emotions are something anyone can have regardless of type. i've met many other types who are just as, if not more, empathic than many infp's i know. the infp's i know are definitely emotional/sensitive, but many are selfish and incapable of seeing anyone else's perspective - they're irrational, and self-pitying. e.g. i've met so many empathic enfj's, enfp's, isfp's, esfp's, and esfj's.
Everyone says I’m quiet. No matter how much I try to make an “outgoing” first impression, everyone says “when I met you, really thought you were quiet.”... and mind you, this is me trying. Being invisible to the world comes with perks, but it’s very lonely.
Ghosty hahaha I can relate so much. I've given up on the outgoing part. What's the point, people will just say they thought I was quiet anyway. Just focus on being genuine, from my experience it feels better for both sides and it's better to make real connections with people.
i relate on a spiritual level everytime you get into a new social setting and say to yourself ok now is the time to act all bright and bubbly then ppl still tell you they thought you were 'quiet'. i think recently im just going through a process of accepting that quiet is not necessarily a negative character trait.
Screaming Chickpea ‘quiet is not necessarily a negative character trait’. I’ve grown up with being taught that being the quiet, shy and nervous person that I was (and still am) wasn’t being the best I could be and it wasn’t a good thing to be that way. I come from a family that is generally really confident and loud and quite extroverted. I always felt different and disconnected from my family. It’s just quite recently that I realised being quiet and shy is not a bad thing and it definitely doesn’t make you a bad person.
That so related to me! When our talk ended the person ask me "Are you okay?" Of course I am bruh why ask that everyday am I not okay to them? I done my talk what else I need to add I dont even have anything to add anymore
The strange thing about me is, that the more introverts are in one place/room relative to extroverts, the more I become an extrovert. I mean, I become way more comfortable in speaking to other people.
Ze G it’s called being shy bro... You’re not confident around extroverts because they’re more likely to challenge and embarrass or dominate you intellectually. You’re actually extroverted.
@Ultimo Destruct-O Wowww, I never noticed! I'm glad people were able to resonate with the comment though 💛 I'd actually heard that phrase/quote from a dear friend of mine, but if you'd like to know the full context of it I'd be open to sharing. I'm 100% sure they wouldn't mind haha
I'd get really awkward when someone who i'm not close with is talking to me. Like, i don't know how to respond without looking like i'm boring or not interested.
I am a introvert, and I also have hard time commenting. Another issue is eye contact - I find it hard to keep it and at same time listen. I fear people often think I am not interested when they are talking.
It's kinda the opposite with me. I talk so little that some people around my school have actually never heard me talk before so when I do it's a surprise.
I can relate to that on a spiritual level. I'm always reluctant to answer phone calls. Last phone call i got was for a job interview, and i waited a few seconds before answering, but then i remembered i had applied to a job a few days earlier and so i answered. And i'm so grateful i did, otherwise i would have missed out on a job opportunity
It breaks me everytime i hear an introvert say they dont wanna BE an introvert. Usually because they feel alone or misunderstood. But you should be proud to be an Introvert! We got so much to offer and so much give.
I'm an introvert, spent my whole holydays without leaving home except for church and the market or other needy things, and I dont suffer loneliness at all.
Me same I can kind relate either wake up get ready work go home or someday when I’m off stay home go to the store church home sleep don’t have any friends never had a girlfriend 😟
The thing is I want people to connect with, I'm always the one to text first or ask questions. I feel literally no one cares about me and if they do talk to me they only do it to be nice.
Desmond Harrington kinda but also i just don’t think anyone wants to talk bc they didn’t text or talk first. i also just don’t wanna say something stupid and embarrass myself.
The reasons I dont talk to people: 1-I think I have BAD dyslexia so I dont remember what to say 2- I fear of making you hate me 3- I fear of that question ( why are you so quiet) it just makes everything cringy 4-I always think im annoying you 5- I think that I am making a fool out of myself 6- I I dont wanna disturb you 7- I dont know what to say or I dont have anything to tell 8- I am really bad at talking, vocabulary and stuff 9- I have bad experience with people (making rumors about me bc im so fkn shy etc) 10- I fear of being rejected if I wanna talk to you 11- I fear of disappointing you
I wonder how it would be if we sat with each other you know since we have this thing in common Would it be any different? I hope this feeling is just because we are around people who... You know , don't have similar mentality to ours or smth ..
@@biski800 haha I know ~ sadly most of them aren't irl Like my best friend :'3 It's not only about the anime tho, we can understand each other on a spiritual level lol I guess the fact that we have similar mentality and ideals plays a big role , eh who knows
My early years: "She's so quiet" "I'll talk to her" "do you want to be friends?" Primary school: "Talk more" people showing up unannounced Secondary: "Does she have a mental disorder" "We can prevent your suicide!" "Here, more friends" (P.S: I was NEVER that suicidal. They just assumed)
Idk if you meant it literally or you're joking, but when you say 'that suicidal' it means you have suicidal tendency, which could be a sign of mental depression, and if that's what you meant then i hope you are fine and doing well, and i am assuming that you are trying to say that you were never suicidal.anyways wanted to point that out have a great day 😃
All introverts getting united sitting separately in their own room.

It's weird how people assume youtubers must be extroverted when 90% of the job is being alone editing videos
So true
Ye specialy gamers
The cutting part is the part where you are introverted. When you record the videos in front of the camera it's like the part where you can express yourself to the world, the extroverted part.
So it seems like it depends on what you are doing or what you want to do.

That was kinda deep tbh
Reasons for not talking:
1) I have nothing to say.
2) I'm deep in my thoughts.
3) I'm too mentally drained to talk.
4) I don't want to interrupt you.
5) I'm intimidated.
Same but also I don't want to talk.

Literally bro, my friend asked me “why don’t you talk in class?” (we sit on opposite sides of the room and he’s the only one I know I’m that class) and I said “because nobody’s said anything to me” and he said “you know you can start conversations too right?” I can’t start conversations for the life of me
@@ian-hm6cx yes for me I don't know what to speak about
I believe introverts usually value deeper connection and meaning than most extroverts, whether its with people or themselves or within the world around them.
Both these are true at Certain angles.. perspectives may change .. truth lie in between ..🙌
@@malayali9144 Yes I agree, not all introverts and extroverts are the same and we all have qualities of both.
Big Wavy Dude not many introvert would transition easily to an extrovert...
Anna Mikulin bruhhhh Im a complete extrovert and this is false. I mean cmon, yall dont even talk to people. I have a lot of friends but its the true friends that are important. Its not just exclusive to u guys...
Legit I don’t contact my best friends ever until they decide to contact me which happens to be almost everyday haha since they are extroverted , and in terms of that deeper connection I won’t lie I hadn’t found a gf or a girl I truly liked for 4 years till a month ago and I found out she is so similar in many ways and it makes me happy she understands that I cherish my alone time which during that time I listen to podcasts and draw since my dream is to become a concept artist and so when during the end of our days she calls me it becomes the best talks ever and it feels awesome to have that deep connection whether it be morals , life , family and friends etc. anyway I went on a rant sorry about that reader haha whoever you are reader have an awesome day ! And if you are extroverted , introverted or maybe both just know you are an awesome person , don’t let anyone tell ya different. 🙌
Why I love spending time alone -
- no one judge you for small things.
- no one is there of disturb.
- no one is there to discourage you.
- You can be what you are really.
This is why I love the earliest hours of the morning, no one is up and I can do whatever I want.
You can say
Thats me in a nutshell
Me too.
not true, my mind does all that
@@fernandoroberts3591 And the reason for it being that way is probably because people irl or in the internet have criticized or talked shit about you before and now your mind just subconsciously keeps repeating them. Basically you have been brainwashed yo believe you are not good enough.
It’s so weird how we can all connect on our similarities on here but can’t connect in real life
Holy shit
Thats true... :(
Leah Grant that makes it sound so tragic
It's the beauty and tragedy of technology.
Well said, though I think the reason is that outside in real life there is everything, and lots of it. On the internet we're basically mostly on topics (posts, forums, videos...) that we enjoy or relate to.
I'm introverted and I struggle a lot with making small talk. Meaningful conversations are more my forte but because I can't do small talk that well it just never really gets to that point
Connor Morgan I feel this on a really deep level
I couldn't have said it better myself.
I can relate. I fell like not being authentic when doing smalltalk because it doesn't really interest me so a lot of times I don't even make the effort of smalltalk and that can probably seem rude or not interested in the person at all.
I thought I was the only one! Whenever I tell that to someone I know they give me a weird face and don't understand. :p
I have come to realize that the people who make small talk all the time aren't worth getting to know on a deeper level. Most people I know who make small talk do so because it keeps the focus of conversation on them, and it's exhausting hearing someone talk about themselves all the time. You will find people worth connecting with, it just takes time and a willingness to spend time with others.
That's why I liked living in Japan; they're very respectful of introverts. In America, you're perceived as a psychopath if you don't talk with people all the time.
Edit: Fixed the wording of the last sentence. I didn't mean to say that introverted Americans *are* psychopaths, but rather the *perception* of introverts in America is that there's something wrong with them, aka they're psychopaths.
@-- - Absolutely! I did make a lot of videos when I was stationed out there from 2013-2015. Right now, I'm working on getting accepted into a university out in Tokyo so I can study abroad next year.

TheAndySan I live in Morocco and it’s basically the same lmao
My teacher said that I was "picking friends" because I don't feel comfortable talking to other peeps :/
Good thing you're not in India lmao
reasons I don't talk to people:
- I don't trust them
- I fear that they would hate me
- I think i make a fool out of myself
- I just fear people (they are too difficult to understand and totally unrelatable)
Edit: seeing all this comments of people who feel the same thing i do is very reassuring that i'm not alone..but it's messed up in its own way...I wish this never happened to anyone even if the price to pay would be only me going through this...I hope we all get through this..Sending tons of love to everyone who needs it. You matter. Don't give up!

It’s not like I don’t like people, I love when I can have a good conversation with someone. It’s just that I hate meeting new people. I’m horrible at starting conversations and keeping them going. I’m so awkward and I also despise small talk.
I can understand this because I feel the same way
I relate to your last sentence hardcore. Sometimes I feel like I come off as rude or dismissive because I don't like engaging in small talk.

Being an introvert has many advantages:
- as you’re okay being alone you don’t jump from relationship to relationship by fear of being single
- you value quality over quantity when it comes to friends
- you can have fun even if you’re alone
- you can appear smarter than you are because you take the time to think before speaking and don’t say all the stupid things that come to your mind
Exactly! Just from those words I already like you 💕
Well said
My favourite thing is being alone because when you are alone you can do anything, dance, sing and etc. also you can lay on the floor stare at the window, listen to your favourite songs which probably will cause sadness to other ppl (that’s why i dont show my music to anyone) and just chill and no one will think that you are psycho 🤷♀️

'Gets ignored'
'Talked over'
'Gets interrupted'
'No one listens'
*It be like that sometimes*
this is what happens to me , like everytime!
Or they would just go: omg! She can talk -_-
Yeah bro.
This is what happena to me, and then people wonder why i don't like talking.
it's all about where you get your energy. Introverts need space and quiet in order to feel ready for the busy, social world. Simple as that.
Glen Veitch couldn’t have described it better!
I wonder though. Because for me it can fluctuate per week / per day even. And also per hour... Would that mean I'm a secret introvert?
@@hhjj7 I think there is also another type called ambivert - which is a combination of being an extrovert and introvert depending on the situation you are in. I identify myself as an ambivert. I love being alone and doing my things, but at the same time I get so energized by connecting deeply with others. You might also be an ambivert :)
@snn Omg... I thought I was just making sh*t up, but I've thought of myself as an ambivert as well, and experience the same

I feel like when I'm with other people, the more people there are the quieter I get.
Yesss I feel like there's not enough room. Like so many people are talking and I have to balance it out some way, so I'm quiet. The more people there are, the higher the expectations are for me. I feel like I have to have something REALLY important to say to butt into something so many people are paying attention to, and trying to get THEIR two cents in

Nope
No babe...I am also like you...!! I talk to myself all the time...
People think I'm an introvert because I don't talk much, really I'm just absorbing the conversations around me and don't feel like talking. Not because I'm shy or reserved. Because I don't want to talk, and listening to other conversations is much more interesting than engaging in one myself.
Relatable
robin I completely agree
Exactly what i think.
Yes! Sometimes, you just don’t have anything to contribute to the conversation and that’s okay

Very true :D
Half the time I prefer being alone over being in good company as well. I love being alone. I rarely catch up with people, and I never feel lonely.

.they put too much time trying to convince me that what i think and do to my life is wrong even tho it doesnt affect on them at any level (i dont do anything to harm me or anyone else, im just not like them in terms of clothes, ideas, art...)
This should start of with why I don’t like talking to dickheads not people.
That's exactly what I'm going through right now ...n i can tell it really annoying. Just hate the fact that they think what they does or say r always right
Definitely true
@@jacobdavidson2995 everybody in my city is a dickhead
blueivy yes. They are annoying bc they always think that they are right. I cant tell my opinion bc it will become awkward.
Them: why don’t you talk more.
Me: I don’t know sometimes I- *gets cut off*
Edit:
Woah I never expected to get so much attention. But to everyone commenting the key I found is to step of your comfort zone and always be the first to break awkward silence. And sometimes you need to sound excited just because the average introvert sounds very monotone. It helps getting people to pay attention. Idk just things I found.
TheGeeksTurn
Right. I feel your pain...
Happily enough, there are people more aware that listen when the other talk.
You just have to speak louder
Yes. SO on point.
I know what that feels like
It's the same with me. When I talk people will interrupt me and I won't talk at all again. Sometimes it's kinda make me feels like I'm not important and no one is going to listen to me.
The most frustrating thing about being introverted is the perception that you're rude, boring or stuck up. This is not so. I could sit with the right person for hours. My husband isn't someone who speaks a lot but he's an extrovert, and I don't speak to people much because I get bored, but when I met my husband, we spoke until the very next day, woke up three hours later, met at 5a.m. And continued speaking. Then met later again that night for coffee and went on a road trip together the week after.
The right people allow a beautiful blossoming, and one should never feel obligated to share that with everyone just because it's the social norm or expectation.
Thank you for making this video. I hope it helps others understand.
Tell me about it, that's why i like being with people that have known me and i don't always like meeting new people because it takes people a while to understand me the way i really am. That's also why i instantly love people who get me and trust that i'm not rude or think i'm better than others because im quiet.

Me too, people think that I'm pretty shy but... I just don't want to talk with them, and I have no problem speaking in public, I like it. People should begin to differentiate shyness from being introverted.

@Edunizer i can realte to you. It happens most of the times. Sometimes all i want is to be left alone.
"I'd rather be alone than being in a bad company. "-- this is exactly the point why some don't socialize

Sometimes I feel like there is something wrong with me because I don't seek out my friends and family. I'm known to stay in my room, doing things that I enjoy and soaking in what I choose.
It's really nice to know that there are people out there like me and that it IS normal.
Perfectly normal to me. You're not alone. And everything is ok with you. You have just described my favourite way of spending summer holidays when adults were like "go out, play basketball with other kids" and I was like "oh, no, I'm finally in here on my own with so many books to read, drawings to draw, new things to learn on my own, music to listen to...". ;-)

Akane Sasu exactly right. I would sit alone in class and it’s totally fine.... I was never really close with anyone in my class to the point where I could just sit next to them and not overthink about how they’re probably bored or that I’m probably annoying to sit next to because I’m a ‘snob’. But I was still very much interactive so when I sat alone, people would feel sad and sit next to me but that actually makes me feel bad for them. I find comfort in solitude but I’m still very much grateful that they tried to do something nice
@RandomGuy I changed school last year and one really extroverted guy realized after 5 month I even existed

This is true for me when I am lost in my thoughts or daydreaming, for example I am sometimes thinking or imagining some interesting scenario in a public place when I am bored and people might say something like: "I know you are bored do you want to go talk about the weather or do a boring job or go outside a bit".

This is factually true. I wish you would respond to this comment so I know I saw your comment and agree wholeheartedly. Meditation is the biggest thing missing from humanity and it totally changed my life.
@@MrShaiya96 hard to take you seriously with that profile picture

I love being introverted keeps you out of a lot of situations
out of a lot of nice situations too
@@xXLeatherFace1 Damn that one hit close to home
oof same, my friends have so much drama with each other.
he did something bad to him and suddenly the whole group is all over it, like why do they all care so much?
@@xXLeatherFace1 I think thats not true because my introversion always kept me from people that try to abuse me in some way. For these people its way to exhausting to try and get you to actually trust them. But for the pople that like you for who you are it is worth having to spend more time to achieve access to your inner self. And thats the kind of people i would call my friends because i enjoy some small amount of time with them way more than I ever could with some people that I barely know for example at a school party. I'm sure everyone has their own way to look at this but thats just my opinion and experience.
Bro, especially workplace drama from what I've been hearing this summer. I was sitting in the messhall and the one other guy sitting at my table starts a conversation by saying "i wish i were more like you, just keeping my head down, doing my work, and not getting caught up in bullshit." Kinda nice
I am an Introvert 🙂
Sometimes, I am HaPpY & sometimes I am sad,
NOTE: Only Introverts can understand this type of feeling 😎
Yah . 🥺🥺
Absolutely 🤗
Extroverts can be too
@@watermel0n210 Yes
Yup..
An introvert can be the most social guy in the room
Sima Ștefan really! Get me started on a topic and I won’t shut up. Being quiet doesn’t mean being shy.
Brian Abisdid It kinda is, Introversion tends to lead to exhaustion from social events, but during these events they can be the loudest, and seemingly most extroverted person.
You are contradicting yourself
I understand u. I am loud in social groups. But I am not comfortable there. I am not comfortable when I am not loud. So I think introverts being loud use this technique for self protection.
I think introverts tend to do good on social situations because they work a lot on themselves.
Someone: Why are you so quiet?
Me: I'm talking in my head
If people could hear my thoughts they'd stop asking me that.

@@LS-jf2rn MATE, I feel you. Sometimes I feel like I'm a 1000 people at once, I disagree with myself even.
@@Blackade2000 SAMEEE....and also i sometimes imagine myself in different scenarios and my convos always sound good in my head😄...nice to know someone out there is like me!
I’m that guy that doesn’t like to talk too much with people,sometimes I don’t talk at all, but when I get to know them better I become that guy that can speak nonstop in topics with a nice way of (story telling). Is it only me or anyone’s too?
Me too. I am 50/50. Want both time alone and with someone and it can sometimes be difficult when I want to be both alone and with someone at the same time
Me tooooo!!!!!!
No, it's pretty normal for any introvertic guy. You have just described any boyfriend I ever had. Yes, introvertic girls prefer and usually attract their own kin of guys. And our first dates are usually hours of silence together, whereas relationships usually are hours of interesting, deep discussions that seem neverending. So yeah, to me typical introvertic stuff.
JuSt Ahmed that’s me 100%. I don’t like to talk but once I know you and connect with you I can talk non stop but only when I feel like it 😂
Could be in between Introversion and Ambiversion too
I'm just so tired of faking smile, I'm not a person who smiles a lot. Just because I want people to think nice of me, i appear with a fake extroverted personality. Because they don't accept my true self, my robotic self. I just want people to accept me the way I am. But it's okay I will continue acting like a different person because at the end of the day no one accepts me. I only show my true self to people im comfortable with, but sadly they also don't accept me the way i am.
I relate. My younger teen years were like this, but I cut those people off once I changed schools. Although I have no friends now, I'm much happier and satisfied with life in general as I don't feel the need to keep satisfying others
@@onlyhuman5669 im planning to live alone in another country in future, hopefully in 2022.
So true
@Amy Gradess who are you??
@@onlyhuman5669 FACTS my guy
I feel most alone around people, because I get ignored, ideas dismissed etc. But in my mind no one stops me, no one gets to ignore me. It's just me being me
Tevya Kadiki I feel the same way
I feel like now that we’re all social distances it’s actually showing just how advantageous being an introvert is in the fact you can be comfortable in your own company and not rely on others
Unless you live in my country, nobody cares about coronavirus so we get guests all the time
So im already writing my will
I'm not gonna lie because of this coronavirus lockdown God I never felt so good i mean now from the last 3 months i'm just in my room doing things that i really care about and getting to know myself better and better without thinking about going out and do things that i really don't like to do but pretend oh yeah i'm enjoying being here.
* Raven I feel for all of the extroverts though I really do for them it must be like what we go through when we do stuff every day😟
@@bexter107when i do things for my extrovert friends it feels like i'm a claustrophobic person it's like my inside is keep telling me we don't really wanna do this but my fake self always tells me that you have no choice so most of the times i declined my actual self and do things for them without making them realize that i may look good from my outside but something like electricity is squeezing me from inside
everyday or most of the days i guess i think we introvert people go through this kind of situations and wish to express this whole challenges and life and our mind to people who can really listen and understand what we go through and how we as introverts really feel but i found out that in order to understand an introvert you have to be an introvert otherwise they just think that they understand us but actually no they're not they just think they do.
That's true....I never feel depressed in lockdown but people say they feel depressed
I am an introvert
I have never searched for any video related to introverts
Still RUclips recommended this video. Interesting!
Edit: Omg! Thanks for the likes you lovely introverts out there.
Google knows everything you do and predicts what may be interesting to you
Same here!
Yea
It might be your watch time haha
Wish the video came sooner
The worst is when you're an introvert who is good at social interaction as a defence mechanism against awkward questions. Then people don't realise you're an introvert and think it's okay to keep constantly interacting with you and you're too scared to say you need to recharge.
That's a good problem to have, don't you think?
@@unoriginalyoutubename8761 Haha, yes, in a way it is. But many a time after the pleasantries are over and I'm waiting for them to move on they seem to like telling me their entire life stories too. Which is more than I bargained for. Comes with being an INFJ maybe? I agree with you though. It is a good thing but I need to see it that way.
As a scropio, I intimidate people with my looks so they don't try yo talk to me, I hate it when people try to interact with me. I faced bullying so many times in my life and not once did I tell my family.Am 20 years now, and have learnt how to ignore people very well.I tried to have friends but they all ended up being fake and for the past few years I have learned how to enjoy only my own company. I hate noise and going out. I always pray for my course mate to cancel the plans too. I only talk when am with my family. I hate it when we have guests at home too
@@olajidesalami7218I'm so sorry you had to deal with such terrible people. But if you were to dream would you like the future to be different?
Yup😊
(INFP) When you're at peace with yourself, you will attract the right kind of people. Quality people.
Pedro Rubio this made me sad and happy at the same time idk
@@biski800 The key word is "peace". I am still sad/happy about many things. Peace is the balance between the both.
@@PhotoRubio not exactly. i'm happy and i feel peace inside me most of the time.
INFP? wasn't that the very emotional one? too emotional? who empathises with people and gets hurt internally because of it?
@@polish3717 INFP's tend to be emotionally driven and effected morso than the other types. -Yes
Empathy is one of our super powers. - Yes
Hurt and elation as a result are a package deal.
@@PhotoRubio i really have trouble understanding how *one* *type* can be the most empathic, emotional etc., because empathy and emotions are something anyone can have regardless of type. i've met many other types who are just as, if not more, empathic than many infp's i know. the infp's i know are definitely emotional/sensitive, but many are selfish and incapable of seeing anyone else's perspective - they're irrational, and self-pitying. e.g. i've met so many empathic enfj's, enfp's, isfp's, esfp's, and esfj's.
Everyone says I’m quiet. No matter how much I try to make an “outgoing” first impression, everyone says “when I met you, really thought you were quiet.”... and mind you, this is me trying. Being invisible to the world comes with perks, but it’s very lonely.
Ghosty hahaha I can relate so much. I've given up on the outgoing part. What's the point, people will just say they thought I was quiet anyway. Just focus on being genuine, from my experience it feels better for both sides and it's better to make real connections with people.
i relate on a spiritual level everytime you get into a new social setting and say to yourself ok now is the time to act all bright and bubbly then ppl still tell you they thought you were 'quiet'. i think recently im just going through a process of accepting that quiet is not necessarily a negative character trait.
Screaming Chickpea ‘quiet is not necessarily a negative character trait’. I’ve grown up with being taught that being the quiet, shy and nervous person that I was (and still am) wasn’t being the best I could be and it wasn’t a good thing to be that way. I come from a family that is generally really confident and loud and quite extroverted. I always felt different and disconnected from my family. It’s just quite recently that I realised being quiet and shy is not a bad thing and it definitely doesn’t make you a bad person.
"Hey how are you?"
*Good*
"What did you do over the weekend?"
*Nothing*
"Are you okay?"
*Yeah*
this kind would kill me slowly, i hate it
You just described my personality quite well
I never do much weekends
That 'Nothing' is many things. But introverted person won't talk about it especially when the person asking just want to have small talks.
That so related to me! When our talk ended the person ask me "Are you okay?" Of course I am bruh why ask that everyday am I not okay to them? I done my talk what else I need to add I dont even have anything to add anymore
"It's better to feel lonely in your own isolation than around a lot of people."
-Faye Valentine (Cowboy Bebop)
The strange thing about me is, that the more introverts are in one place/room relative to extroverts, the more I become an extrovert. I mean, I become way more comfortable in speaking to other people.
Ze G it’s called being shy bro...
You’re not confident around extroverts because they’re more likely to challenge and embarrass or dominate you intellectually. You’re actually extroverted.
Same, if no one will talk usually I will. I guess it’s because we consider them “our kind” and understand there frame of thinking. Just weird
@@WorldKeepsSpinnin My words ✌
Same! It's much easier to talk to someone when you can somewhat relate to them.
Exactly the same happens to me.
"Loneliness is the feeling of not being fully known." - Anon
100% true
Urgh, totally. I really need to find new friends who will know me on a deeper level than the ones I have. It feels like I don't exist sometimes.
@@2hopskipjump2 I don't mind being that person! :)
@Ultimo Destruct-O Wowww, I never noticed! I'm glad people were able to resonate with the comment though 💛 I'd actually heard that phrase/quote from a dear friend of mine, but if you'd like to know the full context of it I'd be open to sharing. I'm 100% sure they wouldn't mind haha
To be honest I'm not really sure if I even fully know myself anymore if that makes any sense at all
I'd get really awkward when someone who i'm not close with is talking to me. Like, i don't know how to respond without looking like i'm boring or not interested.
Totally relatable✋🏻
Yep, I just don’t want to interact with them or in anyway try to make friends unless we have something in common.
Well unless we are both GAAAAAMERS then I'm down for it
@@supermassiveblackhole6315 talking about mutual interest is the real ice breaker haha
I am a introvert, and I also have hard time commenting. Another issue is eye contact - I find it hard to keep it and at same time listen. I fear people often think I am not interested when they are talking.
Me:"tries to communicate with people"
Person:"ignores me"
Me being ignored for the 2374th time: understandable , have a nice day
This is so relatable. why does everyone ignore me?
Hey..no
so true am just like ok
"I dont always talk, but when i do, they still dont listen, stay introverted my friends"😂😂😂rreee!
It's kinda the opposite with me. I talk so little that some people around my school have actually never heard me talk before so when I do it's a surprise.

U know u r an introvert when u took few seconds time thinking before accept a phonecall. Or leave it and just text back later.
Phonecalls are death :)
Yeah I'm like that, but I need to answer now because it could be from a job that I signed for. But sometimes I don't answer still
*or when you have social anxiety as well and your heart drops to the bottom of your stomach when you realise you have to answer it*
I'm an introvert and practice makes perfect. Just answer the phone as quickly as you can and talk slow. It works for me 😀
I can relate to that on a spiritual level. I'm always reluctant to answer phone calls. Last phone call i got was for a job interview, and i waited a few seconds before answering, but then i remembered i had applied to a job a few days earlier and so i answered. And i'm so grateful i did, otherwise i would have missed out on a job opportunity
Others: lockdown and quarantine was so boring
Me: it was fun
How?
I don't want it to end
@@unoriginalyoutubename8761 You won't know
I watched Haikyuu and now I like Volleyball
It wasn't for me since I live with my family 😭
It breaks me everytime i hear an introvert say they dont wanna BE an introvert. Usually because they feel alone or misunderstood. But you should be proud to be an Introvert! We got so much to offer and so much give.
I'm an introvert, spent my whole holydays without leaving home except for church and the market or other needy things, and I dont suffer loneliness at all.
you just described my life haha
Meeee
Story of my life
Me same I can kind relate either wake up get ready work go home or someday when I’m off stay home go to the store church home sleep don’t have any friends never had a girlfriend 😟
Same but i suffer from my lonelinness
The thing is I want people to connect with, I'm always the one to text first or ask questions. I feel literally no one cares about me and if they do talk to me they only do it to be nice.
same with me except i don’t text or ask questions first bc im too nervous.
@@cloerelene cause you're scared you'll say the wrong thing?
Desmond Harrington kinda but also i just don’t think anyone wants to talk bc they didn’t text or talk first. i also just don’t wanna say something stupid and embarrass myself.

Thats insecurity

That's what I want to say all the time
Yessss say it lol
Just say it
Ooh I’m gonna use that one 😯
I want to say that too but I never do it
But I dont
The reasons I dont talk to people:
1-I think I have BAD dyslexia so I dont remember what to say
2- I fear of making you hate me
3- I fear of that question ( why are you so quiet) it just makes everything cringy
4-I always think im annoying you
5- I think that I am making a fool out of myself
6- I I dont wanna disturb you
7- I dont know what to say or I dont have anything to tell
8- I am really bad at talking, vocabulary and stuff
9- I have bad experience with people (making rumors about me bc im so fkn shy etc)
10- I fear of being rejected if I wanna talk to you
11- I fear of disappointing you
Hello I'm also very tired with these things!!!! Can we be friends (Please don't reject) 😩
Do ya mean dementia making you forget what to say

I don't feel connected to people :( I feel like I'm in a bubble even tho I'm sitting right there with'em I'm tryyiiing

Rei Ackerman same for me
I wonder how it would be if we sat with each other
you know since we have this thing in common
Would it be any different?
I hope this feeling is just because we are around people who... You know , don't have similar mentality to ours or smth ..
Rei Ackerman maybe try finding someone who likes the same thing as u ? Like anime ;) because that always works for me. I start blabbering non stop
@@biski800 haha I know ~
sadly most of them aren't irl
Like my best friend :'3
It's not only about the anime tho, we can understand each other on a spiritual level lol
I guess the fact that we have similar mentality and ideals plays a big role , eh who knows
My early years:
"She's so quiet"
"I'll talk to her"
"do you want to be friends?"
Primary school:
"Talk more"
people showing up unannounced
Secondary:
"Does she have a mental disorder"
"We can prevent your suicide!"
"Here, more friends"
(P.S: I was NEVER that suicidal. They just assumed)
Idk if you meant it literally or you're joking, but when you say 'that suicidal' it means you have suicidal tendency, which could be a sign of mental depression, and if that's what you meant then i hope you are fine and doing well, and i am assuming that you are trying to say that you were never suicidal.anyways wanted to point that out have a great day 😃
