Meme Monday: Introvert Memes

I am an introvert.

I mean, if you couldn't have figured that out after years of blogging --and enjoying the fact that less than 50 people read the blog regularly-- that I'm an introvert, well, I'm sorry to disappoint you that I'm not an extrovert.

After 30 years of marriage, my wife has figured out that just leaving me to do my thing in the evening, with me occasionally popping into the TV room to see what she's watching, is the way for us to operate. Sure, I play board games with her and I have some occasional RPG games with a game group, but my hobbies tend to not be of the face-to-face variety. 

So, in honor of all of us introverts, here you go...

Yes, this is me at parties. While I can interact with
people well enough, my brain is freaking out the entire
time. From Thisismyrandomlife via The Minds Journal.


This is me to a 'T'. I had an awkward interaction
last week and I simply.cant.stop.thinking.about.it.
From Thunder Dungeon and X.



This is also me. The skills are similar
to that of stalkers, but the result is one
of active avoidance of certain people. It
is not a requirement that we don't get along,
as I also do that so I don't have to interact with
people I do know and like because... reasons.
From X.


Yep. I'm not fond of spontaneity. In my experience,
things get awkward far more often than not. 
The plot of Martin Scorsese's After Hours is
pretty much why I would never go and embrace
spontaneity. From The Minds Journal.


Yes. This. From Sarah Andersen.


Yeah, my introversion is very much on display
when my friends group wants to go and do things,
whether IRL or in WoW. When you dread that
"XXX Invites you to group" pop-up, you might be
an introvert. From The Minds Journal.

  1. OH MY GOD this is all me and what’s worse is my husband is even a little worse. I think we only got together cause we worked together for a while so it seemed normal.

    These are my people. And then I worry about every interaction at four in the morning. The ONLY way I don’t freak out is if another person approaches with a dog. If the other human has a dog then I’m okay. What a nut. And I don’t mind public speaking cause there’s no interaction. Sheeeeessssshhhh. Ancient
