Topic: Extrovert or Introvert? Posted: May 26 2010 at 12:50 |
Thanks for all the relies folks. I guessed that introvert would be the winning side on this forum :) I should maybe have left out the opening statement though, it did favor the introverted side a bit :)
Cheers to you all

Please... In a prog forum... Music that is SO good for socializing... The question of which will win is rather unnecessary...

I guess I've so far sided with introverted, but I'm trying to change that. I need bar buddies.

I'm the younger brother and the extrovert in the family, my brother would bring friends home who would quickly lose interest in him and hang out with me instead. Of course this is before I started scaring people away by playing Devil Doll at them =F=

You remind me of my brother. I don't think I would be half the introvert that I am if he hadn't been born first and is such an extrovert.

I'm not surprised at all by the results, here. Anoying, loud people typically don't like Prog.
I've been introverted for most of my life thus far (even though I'm still a kid, more or less), but at times I will come out of my shell and do something really 'out there' and/or humorous. But those instances are few and far between. Mostly, I just walk around town with a pissed-off look on my face, hoping I won't be required to speak to anyone.

Hi, my name is Tom. I like progressive rock, playing the keyboards and hanging out with friends. One of the biggest thrills of being a musician was playing live, the way you could capture the entire audience with a well timed melodic solo or a correctly placed head shake. I loved playing live...not to mention there were a lot of women to talk to. While I've lost a bit of my hair over the years and don't get on stage very often, I've supplemented that part of my psyche by going into sales. I pretty much spend all day talking to people and doing what I can to convince them to buy from me. In my sales approach, I don't really try to sell them items as I try to sell them 'me'. Once they buy 'me' then they just continue getting what they've always been buying, just from me instead. I love making the connections that I do in sales. Yeah, I'm not in the majority on this one.

Wouldn't spend so much time on forums if I weren't introvert That said, I try to be as as humorous as possible in my life, my job included, that denotes some extroversion I guess.

Exactly this. Quite introvert, with moments of extroversion bordering on eccentricity.
|
Did you guys notice it was in the definition of introversion that you feel comfortable and non-introverted around close friends
