My introverted side is screaming!

I've never been this social.

For almost a decade, I was mostly withdrawn from social life. I was a NEET, not the horrible kind but pretty reclusive. I barely attended anything and is comfortable with my own company. I'd see friend once in a while when I really have the need to get in touch with reality that I pretty much didn't care. Whenever I do that, I always feel like I've been living under the rock eventhough I move around.

Welcome to my brain dump, it's morning and when I can sit down, sipping a cup of coffee while contemplating life and emptying it out a little.

Perhaps, I am adventurous but the kind that likes to observe people, like they're some type of figurine in a grand scheme of miniature world. I don't get too close to people just observing what I saw, seeing things that I witnessed quietly without interacting too much.

I've only been social during my travels, that I always feel like I have another set of persona. It's me but also not me. I can strike up conversation with strangers, I have no fear of anything and I pretty much didn't care for most things. I still follow strict rules and the only off limit for me is dealing with the law. I can make friends everywhere and I find myself always in an interesting places. Most of the time, that's just because I say "Yes"rather than thinking twice or even directly saying "no".

These days, I am pretty much social. I almost couldn't believe that I could be social. I don't have to bring up some type of persona. It was all just me but at the same time, I felt like I had too much of it. That feeling of being too much is a challenge for me to erase. There's nothing wrong with being social, I need that, making up of the years I spent being reclusive and solely spending it on screen.

These days, I realized there's so many things I haven't truly experience. I felt like when I started spending time with friends, even the most cheapest meal you could ever found become delicious. I remembered days when I used to go to fine dining all by myself. The food was top-notch, no doubt on that but honestly, it was all too usual for me. It wasn't special, it was just that meal. So, as much as my introverted side is screaming for too much human exposure and being social, I'd just have to push through and making this a new reality that it's OK to be social and there's nothing wrong with it.

That's all for my morning. I need some type of break and I got it. So, see you around now that I am buzzing as usual.

I like to think that we can all be introverted or extroverted, depending on our energy level. Interesting to learn that you are more extroverted when traveling.

hahaha yeah, I am definitely more extroverted when traveling. I think it has something to do with being in a space where people don't know me. I can't be bothered answering my family questions sometime.

That's fantastic. I kind of relate to being reclusive sometimes. It's like I feel safe in my own world. But you know, solitude is good, but LIVING with people and being free is also good. By the way, what's NEET?

it's Not in Education, Employment, or Training or mostly associated with Hikikomori

Ohh, I see. Interesting.

I think it's good to have a balance sometimes. In my workplace, I don't ask colleagues out for lunch, and some people thought I am anti-social. But actually when colleagues ask me out, I would be happy to do lunches with them. It's just that I don't have issues lunching alone. Hehe!

I mean we aren't really anti-social 😂 it's just that sometimes we'd rather you to ask us out. I'd be happy to say yes to it in that scenario too. Though with me, it depends. I can be a social butterfly and I'd ask random people for lunch haha

it's just that sometimes we'd rather you to ask us out

Yeah hehe!

We are inherently social beings so it’s really important that we partake in that! Sadly it does have its limits though haha so I’m sure you are working on finding a good balance!

😆 right? I am definitely learning to have some balance. Afterall, we need one another to survive as well.

@macchiata, I'm refunding 0.370 HIVE and 0.000 HBD, because there are no comments to reward.

I am also an introverted person, @macchiata. I am scared to be with people and talk to people. I don't know why. I am just uncomfortable.

I preferred to write than to talk. I can express my thoughts, ideas, and opinions in writing rather than talking. 😊
