INTROVERTS; THE MOST MISUNDERSTOOD PEOPLE



Who is an introvert? An introvert is a reserved person. A person who doesn’t socialize much, whose thoughts and feelings are directed inwards. Personally I think introverts are the most misunderstood people. Why do I think so? Because I am one of them.
As a reserved person, for instance say you enter into a room full of people and you just find a quiet spot and say nothing to anyone for some time probably hoping no one notices you. You keep to yourself just minding your business or you merely just observe everyone. Most people are bound to misunderstand you secluding yourself or observing them. Most of them will automatically assume that you are so full of yourself or that you feel like you are better than everyone else. It’s a brilliant conclusion that isa perfect fit for how you behaved but is it accurate? NO!
See an introvert is like a pearl in its shell. The shell is just about where he would rather be half of all the time. It’s a safe haven, a sanctuary…you name it. The shell is home to tons and tons of thoughts, visions, imaginations and creative ideas. Sometimes however, this shell can hold back an introvert because we get so comfortable inside it that we almost never want to leave. Personally I have and I still am suffering from this. For example, I conceive this Idea of posting an outfit of the day but then I shudder at the thought of having to leave my house to go to the location for the shoot. This has happened one too many times!
Oh the shyness is another misunderstood trait of an introvert. Sometimes it isn’t even shyness; you just don’t want to stare at all the faces while walking into a room. Other times it is the shyness at play. When you give brief responses to questions or you smile instead of answering an uncomfortable question.
When you say little people tend to cook up stories in their head to add to it. Most of these cooked up stories are nowhere near accurate but because people feel the need to know more than you reveal, they give life to these fictitious tales and before you know it you have a BIG misunderstood fact.
