Extroverts and Introverts

A lot of definitions of both kinds are available but I think following definitions tell the better abstract story. But, I think there are many other things that distinguish them.
An extrovert is a person who is energized by being around other people. This is the opposite of an introvert who is energized by being alone.

Me is kind of extrovert. What is your kind? And what are other properties of extroverts and introverts that distinguish each other?

Re: Extroverts and Introverts

I am definitely an extrovert. However..at times can be introvert as well. For instance, when i am at work, around friends, or generally around people i feel awesome. But i can be little introvert or seem introvert..in front of our family friends. Or say, when i need time alone..it can be seemed like i am an introvert. Especially my intellectual self kicks in.
But majority of time..i am an extrovert. I feel very good around people as oppose to by myself.

Re: Extroverts and Introverts

Although more of an extrovert myself, I truly admire the introversion tendencies like their need for solitude and deeper thought-processes. Wasn’t always the case - used to think of them as snobby or aloof as they typically like to keep to themselves
