Telling an introvert to speak up is just as rude as telling an extrovert to shut up.

[HuntVeil]

Introverts mostly act like an extrovert towards other introverts.

I'm an introvert and I hate to have useless conversations with anyone. I talk only when it's necessary, only on things that matter and that's why I don't have any friends. Although I enjoy my own company sometimes I feel lonely.

I guess YouTube knows that I am an introvert and so this video has been recommended.

Introverts should have a separate country. It would be the best country in the world.

I swear I'm an introvert and really quite but when it comes to my relationships with people I love, I'm the most funniest and craziest guy to hang out with 😚✌

[yeet]

Some people mistaken us introvert as arrogant or rude just because we dont talk too much or cant hang out with them just like what they do.😐

[chris]

I only talk when it's necessary because the less people know about you the more they respect you.

[crazyfriendist]

introverts speak out seldom but when they do they make more sense than a thousand extroverts.

[alexm]

Admit it.

Everyone watching this is an introvert.

I feel so lonely in my class, I can't fit in. Sometimes I try interacting, then it gets awkward, other times I don't give a damn but I still want to be a part of it because I'm a team-player but at the same time can't communicate. It's so stressful. I'm so alone there.

[OfficialArchie]

As an introvert, most of my classmates think that I am dumb because I don't perform well at school. But I'm proud to say that I have lots of talents learned through solitude. Mostly, technical aspects.

[yashagarwala]

Being an introvert, I could say that, its the best gift of the nature as you don't need any person to make you feel happy and just surrounded by few but true people in once life. Introverts maynot express their love, idea verbally but they express this in their actions..

[elstingergt]

I'm an introvert but when I approach another introvert I become an extrovert. Anyone else?
