Now try to isolate an extrovert from any event.

- Let me in! *LET ME I-I-IN!!!*

[MARUSHI-YT]

plot twist: she's actually devastated because her last save was 5 hours ago

The laws of physics change during social events
Extrovert = Unstoppable Force
Introvert = Immovable Object

then that extrovert friend disappears into the crowd leaving you standing all alone.

Us introverts need to attend y'all's social events because it's "good for us" but if we put an extrovert in solitary confinement for a day suddenly it's "torture." 🤔

I was expecting the SpongeBob audio honestly.

"NO! NO! I WANT TO LIVE! I WANT TO LIVE!"

You know, I read a post about movies where they pointed out that alot of movies are all about bringing introverted out of their shell and teaching them to socialize. They then mentioned how they'd like to see a movie where an introvert teaches an extrovert to chill out and learn to love their own company. I think we need movies like that

As someone once said:
"Everyone tells the introverts to get out of their comfort zone, but nobody tells the extroverts to shut up and make the zone comfortable."

As an introvert with an extrovert family, I can confirm That’s exactly what it’s like

They say she hasn't fully recharged her social battery to this day. 😢

I know this is a joke.

But in reality: DO NOT DO THIS TO AN INTROVERT!

As an introvert to all extroverts out there, please for the love of the Gods above and below, do not do this.
Instead do the following:

1. If you want to get an introvert to go out with you, give them advanced notification. Twenty four hours is good, forty eight to seventy to hours is better. It gives your introvert time to prepare their social batteries once they say yes.

2. Once the introvert is there there, do not just force them into socializing. Let them become comfortable enough to socialize. If it takes them time to do that, let them take that time. They are already mildly, and in some cases heavily, stressed out from being there.
Additionally, when you arrive at the venue, DO NOT JUST LEAVE THEM TO THEIR OWN DEVICES!!! They are already stressed enough as it is, and you just up and leaving them without a 'by your leave' WILL stress them to the point of a panic attack.

3. When they are ready to leave, they will not often tell you they are ready, but the signs are there. They will look tired, increasingly frazzled, or they will withdraw. Sometimes they will tell you, most times they will not because introverts don't want to disrupt their extrovert friends fun.

4. Often times an introvert will tell you if they have had fun or not AFTER the fact, if only because they are trying to be polite. If they did have fun, suggest going again at a later date (respecting the down time they need to recharge). If they did not have fun, suggest a different venue.

5. Remember, the best way to get an introvert to come out of their shell, even if it's only for a few hours, is to cater to their interests too. Remember, you want them comfortable with you asking them to go to social events, not turning into angry gremlin that's afraid of the light of day.

6. At the end of any social event, help your Introvert decompress. If they want a comfort drink, a snack, etc, get it for them, or take them to where they can get it, then take them home. Once home, let them just relax. Don't talk about the next time unless they initiate the idea first. If they park themselves behind a computer, console, whatever, let em. They have been dealing with real people for a while, and pixels tend to be their comfort thing.

7. This is the most important thing to keeping introverts well taken care of: If your introvert says No the first and second time you ask about a social event. DO NOT BROW BEAT THEM INTO GOING. That is the fastest way for your introvert from disappearing from your life entirely.

Hope this guide helps all extroverts who have introvert friends.

Damn, she strong. Dragging a fully grown human being by the foot without pause or difficulty.

Oh fiddle sticks, this social event probably ruffles her feathers.

[iamvoidnoodle]

My friend once brought me to a social event when I was napping on the couch, she literally picked me up, put me in the car and drove to the event while I was still sleeping and when we got there I started crying because I hate crowds and social gatherings with a burning passion 💀

This is why a true introvert dosnt let anyone else in their home

Edit: It's now at 6, 9k likes... stop liking this or I'll get a reason to actually move from my home

[hellojudas]

I love how shes grabbed by the arm but then it immediate cuts to her being dragged by the leg

As a Introvert, I can confirm
We hate going to events or even _outside_

[puntrplays]

Tip for introverts: to avoid such situations, learn the fight basics and fight your way back

[cameronbigley]

She was polite and closed the door behind her, too. ❤

Extrovert aggressively adopts an introvert.
