Are You an Introvert or an Extrovert
It was Carl Jung, who coined “extrovert” and “introvert” in the 1920s as he studied the different psychological types of human beings. In his study, he pointed out that the differences between the two lies down to one factor: energy. According to him, extroverts are people that are fueled by social interactions while this can actually be taxing for those people who are introverts. This means that an introvert may need to find some time alone in order to recharge after attending a social gathering such as a party.
A person that is purely introvert or purely extrovert is almost non-existing. To fully understand whether you are more of an extrovert or an introvert, you need to know how to classify the two.
The Extroverts
Extroverts are considered people lovers. They feel more energized when people are around them. A fun night for them would involve a dozen of family or friends with them. They can be funny, warm, energetic and are usually the life of the party. They may also, sometimes be self-centered and demanding and will do whatever it takes to be in the spotlight.
The Introverts
Introverts do not interact with people as much as extroverts do. This simply means that they would rather be around a few people rather than lots of people. For instance, unannounced visits of other people like their family members can be very stressful, even when the visitors are not doing anything to interrupt them.
Although opposites, there is a great possibility for an introvert and an extrovert to relate to each other in a balanced manner and come up with a mutually fulfilling relationship. This depends on how they respect one another, where good communication between two people that are very different can take place.
