I Am An Introvert

What is it with these misconceptions of introverts? A relative argued that I wasn't an introvert because I was adventurous when I was four (about seventeen years ago and many kids are adventurous)and had moments throughout my life where I "broke out of my shell." "Introvert" does not mean "antisocial, underachieving hermit." Introverts can be adventurous, bold, and motivated just like extroverts. We don't hole up in our homes all day everyday unwilling to socialize, improve, and challenge ourselves. This happens every time I say I am an introvert. Sorry, but I am an introvert whether you believe me or not.

I'm an introvert. I'll go to parties, have fun with friends, but there will be points when I "disappear", no one is able to find me. Then someone will find me in my truck and wonder if I'm allright. Of course, it's just being around so many people for extended periods of time will drain me and to recharge, I remove myself from the outer world. that's my perspective
