    • @ailurii

      It makes sense.
      Consider what he said in the video about introverts not needing the same level of excitement to be satisfied. While an extrovert would rather experience the fun of a group hangout, we're happy as is with just RUclips and chill.

    • @Harrypotterandpreggo

      Introverts are quite active on the internet. Many introverts pretend to be extroverted in real life probably because society has an "extroversion bias" as mentioned in the video.

      @sophxxe 3 года назад +2

      @@memezarqueen1415 Your opinion around loud noises doesn't necessarily determine introversion or extraversion. It's more-so how you feel in social situations, or your level of boredom and/or excitement. I'm very introverted (I also just suck at talking to people), but even though I hate loud noises, it doesn't guarantee my introversion or extraversion. If you want to figure out what you are, introvert, extrovert, or even an ambivert, then I recommend that you hang out with friends or family for a couple of hours and see how you hold up. If you get bored or lose focus quickly, I'd say you're most likely introverted. If you're actively particpating in conversations and finding yourself enjoying being with people, you could be an extrovert. Or an ambivert. Dunno how that one would feel though.

      Sophie Matthews well now don't you have a lovely mindset? I am an introvert, and I know plenty of introverts, hating people isn't an introvert thing. Just like the video said, it's crowds and being the centre of attention that's unsettling for introverts. We do actually like others too, life must be sad if you hate everyone

    • @DonyDeBa
      @DonyDeBa 4 года назад +43

      No... "ambivertion" doesn't exist.
      Probably you are simply an extrovert who has only bad days, like anyone else. Or you are an introvert who likes to be the center of attention, but only with people who make you feel at ease.
      A person can be extroverted or introverted, as shown by the MBTI theory. But everyone has an introverted and an extroverted side, inside his own personality type.
      Each side can be expressed independently of person's basic personality. He/she chooses which one to express according to the situations and the people he/she is interacting with, the personal emotional state, etc.
      Insecurities, behaviors and actions have nothing to do with the personality :)

    • @IgorNetoAnimation
      @IgorNetoAnimation 4 года назад +14

      ​@@DonyDeBa No... "Ambivertion" is definitely a word, you can search it up, or find it in the dictionary.
      I do agree with what you say though, *there are alot of introverts and extroverts that can suddenly have the opposite preference.*

    • @DonyDeBa
      @DonyDeBa 4 года назад +5

      @@IgorNetoAnimation A lot of things have names, but that doesn't mean they are real or have turned out to be true over time. Think about things like unicorns and mermaids or, more seriously, scientific theories that have proven to be incorrect. If you hypothesize something and you give it a name, this does not imply that it is true, at least until it is proven. But even if it's proven that something isn't true, it doesn't mean that it isn't beautiful and/or has not something to teach us. For example, fantastic creatures can be useful in creating beautiful stories and novels; they tell us about the folklore of the people who invented legends about them, etc. The incorrect scientific theories leave us something about our process of analysis, testing and discovering process of their invalidity. And they are a step to more correct theories.
      So, going back to the heart of the matter: ambiversion. Psychological experts and psychological theories (such as MBTI) agree that it does not exist. "Ambiversion" doesn't exist because you can't prefer both Extraversion and Introversion - one is always going to be stronger than the other.
      Your inner core is extroverted OR introverted but, as I explained in the previous comment, you can express both sides, depending on situations, emotional state and people, independently of person's basic personality.
      An easy way to try to understand if your true self is introverted or extroverted is to try to notice and answer to these questions, IN GENERAL and objectively: 1⃣ do you feel alive, *do you get energy from acting outside?* from external situations? from interacting with people? OR 2⃣ *do you get energy* from your mind, *from your inner world* of thoughts, ideas and beliefs? do you feel better if you are in your mind, because the inner world come before the rest? do you look at the world through your inner world? If you could choose OBJECTIVELY between interacting with other people going out with your friends *or* an evening reading a book / playing a video game (with friends or without), would you choose the second option?
      Thinking about it, which of the two options is more intimately true for you? Taking into account that we all have our own interiority, which must not be confused with introversion, and vice versa, our positive or negative contact with the external world must not be confused with extraversion.
      In any case, the problem is that people create a lot of garbage from psychological and scientific theories like MBTI, so that what is correct is often misinterpreted. Ambiversion is one of these mistakes. As well as believing that some psychological types are better than others. So you have to be careful ;) Sorry about this long answer, but it was necessary

      Uhm... you are simply an extroverted who has only bad days, like anyone else.
      Ambivertion doesn't exist. A person can be extroverted or introverted, as shown by the MBTI theory. But everyone has an introverted and an extroverted side, inside his own personality type.
      Each side can be expressed independently of person's basic personality. He/she chooses which one to express according to the situations and the people he/she is interacting with, the personal emotional state, etc.
      Insecurities, behaviors and actions have nothing to do with the personality :)

      @@flyingspacebrainedidiot contrary to what most people think, introversion and extroversion isn't directly linked with your ability in socializing, it's how you restore your energy (I'm not talking about some chakra bullcrap, I mean your excitement and feeling good in general). An extrovert may not be very good talking to people, but they will feel good when they manage to get in the conversation. In the same way, an introvert may be good at socializing and talking to others, but they'll get exhausted as the time passes, since it consumes their energy. Though I'm an extrovert who loves talking to people, I've seen both cases and it's pretty normal

    • @l21n18
      @l21n18 5 лет назад +4

      FineSarcasm I Think perhaps the problem is that these categories are too simplistic. To assume that wanting to be around people necessarily correlates with being adventurous while not feeling energized by being around people is akin to being chronically anxious and nervous. There are a lot of social butterflies out there who wouldn’t even do non-risky activities like riding a rollercoaster or watching a scary movie let alone doing something that had actual risks. Social gatherings can be some of the most boring things out there, even parties with loud music I must say I do not find that interesting.

      That's because most people define introversion and extroversion as a 2 sided coin, either is one, or the other. Actually, it is quite of a spectrum; everybody has main traits at one side (or even in the middle, which are ambiverts), but they have some characteristics of the other too. I, for example, am an extrovert and I love talking to people, especially in huge groups, it feels like I have a stamina bar that keeps going up; still, I wouldn't refuse a good afternoon playing video games (wether I'm alone or not), that's something that I love doing since I was a child

      I am the SAME way. I am definitely a strong conversation contributor, but the moment they start doing too much (forgetting to breathe and letting the other person talk too) then something happens and I get quiet. On the other hand, if I'm talking to a person who is shy and/or isn't contributing much to the conversation (such as an introvert) then I probably won't talk to them for very long. I tend to retreat because I don't know what to do with them. lol

    • @RedGallardo
      @RedGallardo 7 лет назад +65

      A happy person, a shy person and introvert are absolutely different independent traits. As an introvert you can be shy or bold, it's not a problem to be open with people telling them that you don't want to talk to them. And you can be a happy introvert. You can talk to random people, you can be extremely friendly. But then a hundred friends of yours ask you if you wanna go out and drink and listen to loud music and yell and shoot stuff all night and you say "no, fu, you're sick". That means you're introvert. An extrovert will just go ahead and have fun because any social fun is good to them. The more the better. They relax this way, you relax by staying away from the crowd.
      People mix the things way too often.

      i think term socialising with people is loose term here because if you meet new people and they are really confident and present their ego you can act closed as introvert but with close friends who get along with you you can be yourself and act wild and open and there can be more scenarios, like new people but also not arrogant as they take conversations more fragile and want to know you and have a good time

    Every time you do a pleasurable activity, this triggers a neurochemical responde where your brain releases dopamine , a hormone that makes us feel good ,the fact that determinates if you're extrovert or introvert is the sensitivity to this neurochemical and the amount of it that your brain releases, an introvert gets immersed on it's thoughts because they get a high level of dopamine from it , and they get overstimulated from social interaction because they release more dopamine than the amount they can handle , an extrovert is quite the opposite, even if an extrovert concentrates on it's own thoughts , the amount of dopamine they get is very low in comparison to an introvert, and when the brain craves dopamine it released a neuronal activity called "boredom " that is an unsatisfactory state where you crave stimulation, very similar to the codependency that an addict has to it's own addition, and every time an extrovert socialises with someone they trigger the same amount of dopamine that introverts release only by thinking, so yes, introverts never get bored due to high sensitivity to pleasure, and this factor plus their introspection is what allows introverts to spend more time upgrading their cognitive abilities,(extroverts are incapable of this because of their crave for stimulation resulting in distractions from the activity) leading me to the next phrase :
    "A person that never gets bored can achieve anything "

    • @dcipher2612
      @dcipher2612 7 лет назад +2

      Although I agree that there is an uneven ratio, I believe a lot also has to do with age, for example, little children from the age of 5 - 12 are more likely to be extroverts rather than introverts because they are younger, more sociable, and less self-conscious. In the leading years, adolescence, people become more self-conscious and some even switch to being introverts in this stage. MOST IMPORTANTLY, if someone is an introvert at a young age, adolescence can make 'introversy' a curse rather than a personality. People say that this switch between the two side is very easy (if someone is an introvert, they can easily become and extrovert and vice versa), at this age, but in fact, this is not true... What IS true is that the LEVEL of 'extroversy' and 'introversy' diminishes over time. (People will tend to become ambiverts as they become older). I myself remember being told that I was an extrovert when I was younger, and now I am an introvert, I accept his change and think it for the better

      I can relate EXACTLY the same, like that is literally what I do and what my family thinks of me

    Ambivert!!!! I didn’t know this was a thing until today! I’ve never felt fully extrovert or introvert, but now I know there is such thing as being in the middle! Thanks guys!

    I've really been interested in Mbti and personality types lately it's interesting and enjoyable to know myself and who others view
    But I ended up finding its more fun and relaxing just to treat people as how find them with out analyzing them because everyone is unique ❤️
    Just an advice I found it good for me and loved to share it ✨

    So... us introverts are smarter but more depressed? Seems about right, I think.

      No, being an introvert does not mean you are smarter than an extrovert. They just have more access
