Dear Extroverts…

There’s something that we introverts would like you to know. In order to avoid misunderstandings (or hurt feelings) please understand, shyness is not necessarily equal to fear or pretentiousness. Should you run across one of us try not to read too much into our demeanor. It is quite possible that we are neither afraid nor ‘too good’ to interact with you. More likely, we simply don’t have the inclination. Try to remember that not everyone seeks out human contact as you naturally do and this way you won’t have to feel like the world is populated with snobs. Probably just a lot of introverted folks who generally aren’t looking to meet someone new today – however wonderful they may be.
