about my personality

Posted by Tiya Andini
23 Signs you’re secretly An Introvert-from: here-

1. You find small talk incredibly cumbersome.
Well.. sometimes.. 

2. You go to parties -– but not to meet people.
I don’t really like parties. I am enjoy the party, but I'm not excited to meet new people. For me, party is an event to meet my family and my friends. If I meet a new person then it's a bonus. 

3. You often feel alone in a crowd.
Yes. Really, I feel lonely sometimes when I go with my friend.
"If you tend to find yourself feeling alone in a crowd, you might be an introvert," says Dembling. "We might let friends or activities pick us, rather than extending our own invitations."

4. Networking makes you feel like a phony.
Big YES. People like that now.
Networking (read: small-talk with the end goal of advancing your career)

5. You've been called "too intense."
This! I always do this thing! And sadly, nobody understand this so I end up being the weird one.
"Introverts like to jump into the deep end," says Dembling.
6. You're easily distracted.
Yes.
Clark University researchers wrote in a paper published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. "In contrast, introverts are more easily distracted than extroverts and, hence, prefer relatively unstimulating environments."
7. Downtime doesn’t feel unproductive to you.
Unconsciously, Yes.
Whereas an extrovert might get bored or antsy spending a day at home alone with tea and a stack of magazines, this sort of down time feels necessary and satisfying to an introvert.

8. Giving a talk in front of 500 people is less stressful than having to mingle with those people afterwards.
Hmm.. maybe. 

9. When you get on the subway, you sit at the end of the bench -– not in the middle. 
I never realized it until I saw this article. You can freely do anything if you sit at the end of the bench. 

10. You start to shut down after you’ve been active for too long.
Sometimes. Not always. 

11. You're in a relationship with an extrovert.
Hmm.. i guess..not yet(?) 

12. You'd rather be an expert at one thing than try to do everything.
I like to be an expert at one thing, but I think it’s not bad to do everything and be an expert on everything. 

13. You actively avoid any shows that might involve audience participation.
I like people’s attention on me, but I don't like to be always on the spotlight. 

14. You screen all your calls -- even from friends.
I’m sorry my friends, but this is so me. Never thought that anybody will do this too.
"To me, a ringing phone is like having somebody jump out of a closet and go 'BOO!,'" says Dembling. "I do like having a long, nice phone call with a friend -- as long as it's not jumping out of the sky at me."

15. You notice details that others don't.
Yes, and sometimes it brings many glares from the other.

16. You have a constantly running inner monologue.
Absolutely Yes.
“Extroverts don’t have the same internal talking as we do,” says Olsen Laney. “Most introverts need to think first and talk later."
17. You have low blood pressure.
Hmm.. I’m not sure. Let me check first.

18. You’ve been called an “old soul” -– since your 20s.
Yeah. Seems I’m a wise person. What do you think? 

19. You don't feel "high" from your surroundings
I'm not sure enough about this. hmm.. 
20. You look at the big picture.
Yeah, abstract. It’s too much sometimes until I can’t define myself.
"Introverts do really enjoy abstract discussion," says Dembling.

21. You’ve been told to “come out of your shell.”
implicitly. 

22. You’re a writer.
Not an expert, but I like writing. 

23. You alternate between phases of work and solitude, and periods of social activity.
Yeah. You know? It's called Yin Yang.
