Extraversion. Introverts.

Scientifically speaking, extraversion is the attitude distinguished by the turning outward of psychic energy. It leads a person towards the objective rather than the subjective. In laymen definition, extraverts are wild, happy people who are more outgoing than serious.

Extraverts are usually the talk of the town, the life of the party, and most likely, they are the ones that people always notices. It's not because they're better people, but because they are more approachable and friendly-looking rather than the introverts.

There is no positive or negative personality. You can be a good person whether you're an extravert or an introvert. Because psychologically healthy people attain a balance of the two attitudes. They must feel equally comfortable with their internal and external worlds.

In my last post, I have discussed about Introversion, and it's good side. I even told you situations where in extraverts are described in a bad way. So now, I will be discussing how extraverts must not envy introverts because of their ability to internalize well for themselves.

Yes, it is a good thing to be able to internalize for yourself and for somebody else, but being deprived of that ability comes with being an extravert. An extravert wouldn't be able to go wild and loud at a party if they're too worried about how people might think about them, because that's what an introvert does.

There are several introverts who are introverts because of conceit. They love themselves so much that they don't care to explore the outside world and socialize. I don't mean that all are like that, I'm saying that "some" are.

I know an introvert who is fun and light all the time. She is approachable but very reserved. We are friends, and I, myself, am an introvert. Her introversion, however, was not the best kind. She is always gaining for personal superiority. She wants to get high grades, (that's fine!) but she drags others down to attain that. She would sometimes sit quietly at the back of a room and think about herself. She will get to know you. She will know your weaknesses and use that for self gain. She isn't that all bad, but she is not a very good person either. She will criticize you in her mind just because she doesn't have that quality that she envies in you. It's almost depressing to be writing about this because I am suddenly feeling the insecurity she feels for herself. It's sad.

So, there you have it, introverts at their worst setting. I might have over criticized introverts in that story, but I'll say this again. This description does not apply to all introverts. I, myself, am an introvert. Besides, I've said in the post last time, everybody has both an introvert and extravert inside of them. They can let that side out anytime they want. They just have to be open to their internal/ external world.
