Extroverted people give "quiet" people a lot of shit because extroverted people absolutely freak the hell out - if it's quiet.

They don't know what quiet people are thinking because they don't have that wonderful extroverted talent for saying every stupid thought that comes into their predominantly empty skulls.

I see nothing wrong with that.
It’s an empathetic trait.
Many who are “extroverted” are actually narcissistic assholes.

Yup, I'm totally the same. I'm trying to make the effort to reassure myself so I dont get anxious and flustered. But at the same time are we just with the wrong people if we feel like we dont fit and they dont make the effort for us? And they do keep proving my inner pessimist right after all.

It's harder in the real world. Social media is easier because you can retreat at the speed of instant teleportation if you so choose to.

Out there it's like everyone would be literally watching you walk away awkwardly if you have up half way through. It's why I struggle with it as well...

Isn't it socially acceptable at this point in history to just give up on real life friends and hang out online all day? Or am I just telling myself that to make myself feel better lol

I was very shy when I was younger, it held me back so much. Now I'm annoyed with myself for being like that. Do your best to realise you're no different, just quieter. Gain a bit of confidence in yourself and you'll enjoy yourself so much more.

I’m pretty introverted as well, and I will say it can be practiced and worked around. However, I still find it easier to write to people rather than actually function in a large group setting.

Just go out and give it a try. Smile at others, join clubs, let yourself open up.

I just don't think people really become close friends in today's society very often.
