I am an extreme extrovert with an introvert job (which I HAVE to change but there are no jobs here), and I live in an extremely introverted small city. It is driving me insane. I have lots of beautiful and lovely introverted friends but jeepers it is difficult because I constantly have to Hyperaware of my extroverted ways and constantly trying my best to tone everything down so that they can tolerate me, which makes me feel like shit. I find that when I lived in a larger city it was much easier to meet other extroverts, as the majority of my friends were extroverts. But as an extrovert living in an extremely introverted city, it is killing my spirit and is making me hate being an extrovert. <br /><br />I have even been looking up how to be an introvert because all of introverted friends LOVE their alone time so much and I'm left alone. I wish introverts could be a little more compassionate to their extroverted friends. I love all people and NEVER hesitate to talk to befriend anyone, and being surrounded by introverts all of the time, I find myself always doing things alone or struggling to find people that want to go do activities. Living in this city has really done a number on my self-esteem, as people tell me I'm too much, or too this or too that. I have NEVER told an introvert to be anything but themselves, but they have no problems telling me. I wish everyone could just except each other for who they are and appreciated each others differences. Sad Extroverthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08295043429183904504noreply@blogger.com
