The holiday season has finally come to an end, and it’s now time to return to our regularly scheduled programming. If you’re a social butterfly, you might be sad that all of the Christmas potlucks and New Year's parties won’t be back for 11 months. But if you’re an introvert, you might be thrilled to get back to recharging on your own as much as you like.
For all of you pandas out there who become exhausted by social settings, we took a trip to the Introvert Planet Instagram page and gathered some memes that you might find painfully relatable. Keep reading to also find a conversation with the founder of Flourishing Introverts, Joanna Rawbone, and be sure to upvote the memes that make you feel seen (without having to actually see anyone at all)!

Every week there is a medical article telling us loners that we will die young because of a lack of social contact. My plan is to disprove them all. But no one will know because I will be alone and they will be dead.
You know who writes those articles? People who can't get anyone to attend their Fondue Parties.

Sorry guys, but I’m not going to inflict more of that on the introverted essential workers. Or the people who were stuck at home with their abusers. :(
My brother is undiagnosed for, I'm sure, several issues. Crippling social anxiety is one of them. Little did I know that I would soon learn I may have traces of it myself. I used to LOVE being out & around groups of people. Now, post Covid, I go out as little as possible. Work, groceries, doctor, that's about it.
Why is that though? I'm a introvert and never understood why they would never say that?
Because society treats introverts like we're broken extroverts that need to be "fixed"
Load More Replies......or basically any menswear shop. You can't get a foot in there before someone offers you assistance. Well sometimes you just want to browse a bit around and look for at good offer, without having something particular in mind that it was the plan to get. I want to know my options and gauge the price level before making a commitment, but as soon as someone starts helping me, leaving without buying anything feels like a faux pas, which at least needs a really good excuse to do with a good conscience. It is horrible and is an exploitation of the reciprocity principle. I don't want to be showered with social debt just because I might be interested in some items.
Load More Replies...This is straight out of the Japanese supermarket playbook... Those guys should be in charge of all social etiquette... We can only aspire.
Don’t believe it! I worked in a Japanese school and they have compulsory extracurriculars EVERY WEEKDAY. AND SATURDAYS. AND DURING THE SUMMER HOLIDAYS. And then they graduate into a work culture with mandatory happy hours and the obligation to stay at work until your boss leaves.
Load More Replies...It might also help the actual staff, it gives them something to work with
Some years ago my husband and I were in Curry's shopping for a new PC. One of said "limpet mines" attached himself to us. He was setting up a new computer and he kept saying...."What if I say I'll add this " and " What if I say I'll add that " he wouldn't shut up, so my husband said....."What if I say we'll leave the shop" and that's exactly what we did. The bloke just there with his mouth open. I kind of hope his manager wasn't watching, I spent a small part of my working life in retail and you really are bullied into actively selling. I would smile and say "yes sir, three bags full sir" and then just carry on as normal.🤣
Load More Replies...When I tell people I’m an introvert, they often don’t believe me or try to disagree. But being an introvert doesn’t mean I should be less friendly or have stage fright or be scared of calling up the doctor’s office. It just means that after a few hours of social interaction, I’m in need of a quiet and peaceful evening alone where I don’t have to speak to anyone and have the chance to recharge.
Despite how little representation introverts seem to get, Verywell Mind reports that they make up nearly half of the population. And they might not want to be social all the time, but they can still have a wonderful time finding communities online and bonding with fellow introverts through pages like Introvert Planet on Instagram. This account, which has been around since 2016, has amassed an impressive 52.9k followers and shared nearly 2k posts. Introverts may be quiet sometimes, but we are mighty!
Or witches (Baba Jaga folklore) who live in the middle of forest with cat, owl or crow. And whoever came close - has been eaten :)

My husband is 73 and I'm 68, and we kind of live like this. LOL I never thought of the Grinch connection before. Dang, I hope we aren't quite that cranky.
Took me longer than it should to realise that Robbie rotten in crazy town is based on the grinch
Same here, but also having ADHD it's my time to get hyper-focused on something without interruptions.
Consequence is that you're so daamn tired :D But if your work/school/whatever schedule allows it, then why the heck not. I love to stay up late. :D
Especially if you are browsing the streets. All the fuzz and the noise of the daytime is gone, and everything is calm. It feels a bit like you have jumped into a parallel world, where things are familiar, but not quite real.
This is so me unfortunately I have kids who get up early so am permanently exhausted
I moved away from a major city and to a tiny village in the middle of nowhere. I like going out for walks at midnight. There's no-one around and it's pitch black, especially along the canal or near the Loch. It's also a great place to be potentially murdered as no-one would see what happened or hear me scream.
Because I'm bored. I'm thinking about all those things I'd rather do instead of being here.
Because everyone at the party expects you to listen to their dull life stories, but when it is your turn to talk, they all ignore you and walk away.
Load More Replies...I'm quiet because 5 minutes after arriving, I start mentally inventing an airtight reason why I have to leave.
When people ask me why I don't talk much, I reply "I always try to set a good example."
Someone asked me that once and my response was “I learn way more from listening than you ever will from talking.” It wasn’t accepted very well.
If they don't act like a steamroller and know how to listen. In some cases they don't even seem to be aware there is another person. I don't mind people that talk a lot, as long as they give you a chance to be a part of the conversation, and acknowledge you are there! That you are not just an accessory but an actual person. That part is hard to grasp for some people; that the world doesn't revolve around just them. That each person lives their own life and experience their own world just like they do. Others are not "extras" in their story. Each person is the lead character in their own story!
Load More Replies...Being quiet is so much better than being loud, rude, obnoxious, I feel this tweet so much....
Another one: why are you so thin? You should eat a sandwich!' But if I said, 'why are you so fat? You need to push away!' I would be annihilated
Why so short? Does anyone tell us to eat / drink / exercise / sleep more to get taller? It's the way I am, accept it or not, just stop trying to make your issues my problem.
Load More Replies...Extroverts never seem to understand behavioral differences. Yes, this is a generalisation, but a few I have asked when when they have asked me why I am quiet seem offended they I may not consider it normal. It takes a long time for me to be comfortable around people and don't talk for the sake of putting words out there.
To gain more insight into what it’s like to be an introvert, we reached out to Introvert Advocate and founder of Flourishing Introverts, Joanna Rawbone, MSc. Joanna is passionate about “rattling cages to shake out the extraversion bias in business” and was kind enough to have a chat with Bored Panda about what being an introvert means to her.
“[It] simply means I get energy from solo or quieter activities. Regular recharging and pre-charging are essential for my well being and ability to function,” Joanna explained. “It does not mean that I hate people, although some introverts are also misanthropes. It does not mean that I’m anti-social; I’m selectively social as it depends on the company and my social and emotional capacity at the time. It does not mean that I’m a boring, lonely person, as introverts are very happy with their own company.”
I once acted like I wasn't me when someone tried to talk to me even though we never talked in high school.
Masking was the best thing ever to happen to me. Pair that with giant sunglasses? You don't know who I am!
If you can afford that, you can afford to NOT shovel your own snow
Load More Replies...Yeah, but that picture looks like bear country, so I'll find a different location. Apart from that, it sounds good,
Eh, it's fine. Bears aren't aware of human social norms, we don't have to let them in when they visit.
Load More Replies...Sounds wonderful 😊 I'd love that, would be happy with just no neighbors.
Nah, I genuinely like people, but it's the damn awkwardness which gets me :(
I say "hey puppy! Hey Kitty! Hi moo cow! Hey cluckers!" And jokingly tell all of them they'd make good soup, my standard animal pickup lines. People I say "hell naw!"
lol look at this freaking loser. real introverts make the animal noises. /j
I consider it a red flag if someone DOESN'T talk to animals.
Load More Replies...Joanna also shared about what her favorite aspects of being an introvert are. “I love how resourceful and independent I am. I don’t need others to validate me, to entertain me or to make my life complete,” she told Bored Panda. “I can get my head down and do great work as long as the environment is conducive to quiet work. Noisy open-plan offices can be a real challenge. Introverts account for about 50% of any population, but we are all so different.”
You can learn more about your own introvert type on Joanna’s website right here.
I'd never seen it, but it made me laugh.
Load More Replies...The cat looks like a wise old man who knows secrets of the universe. It's blowing my mind.
I sometimes want to say something, but by the time I get to talk, the conversation has run so far away from what I wanted to say, that it will be awkward to bring it up, and I just stay silent.
Same! Many people complained about essentially getting cabin fever, but I was happy as a clam in my own home ♥
"Social Distancing" was a friggin' blessing. What it meant for me was that people finally stopped trying to make me feel bad for not **wanting** to go out all the time.
Joanna also addressed some common misconceptions people have about introverts. “Managers and leaders often think that because we get on with our work quietly, we lack ambition,” she shared. “People also think that because we don’t answer questions immediately or contribute much in meetings, that we have no opinion or don’t know our stuff.”
“Nothing could be further from the truth! We have a think-say-think communication process (opposite to extraverts) which means we like to take our time to be sure that what we’re saying accurately reflects our views,” the expert explained. “And, meetings dominated by the overly vocal don’t usually give us space to contribute.”
I've slowly been creating a horticultural boarder around my property for a couple of years now. I value my privacy.
“As an advocate for introverts, I’m on a mission to shift the extraversion bias that exists in education, business and society at large,” Joanna went on to share. “I spoke about this in my 2019 TEDx talk. Any leader serious about DEI cannot ignore the bias that negatively impacts up to 50% of any population. This is not about creating further division but about valuing differences.”

I remember telling a good friend that hanging with her was as good as being alone. Fortunately, she got it.
It's time someone invented a real life UNDO button. I'd settle for a BACKSPACE too.
yep, especially true when that conversations happens in a foreign language, which isn't really your strong suit.
Being an introvert is no better and no worse than being an extrovert; we need both to make the world go round! But according to Time, there are a few key benefits of being introverted. First, they’re often great listeners. Because they typically take time to consider what they’re going to say before actually vocalizing, they’re usually able to listen closely and be present while someone else is sharing with them. And we all love a great listener! Someone who will remember things you’ve only told them once and ask how your dog’s birthday was over the weekend is a keeper.
Recharging your social battery is iike recharging your phone battery. Only charge to 80% and don't discharge below 20%. In other words only use 50% allowing for a safety margin.
Trying to explain this to people is so exhausting that I don’t even bother anymore. I just reappear when I’ve recharged sufficiently.
I understand that some performers, like actors and singers, are like that.
Okay...what am I supposed to do about it? Enjoy yourself and don't let a Central Park raccoon bite you.
Introverts also tend to be quite observant, which can be a great skill. They tend to notice others' body language and can usually get a good read on people. This can make them even better at communication, even if they appear to be quieter than their extroverted counterparts, and it can allow introverts to form deeper relationships. This can also be an advantage when talking to someone who doesn’t have great intentions, as they’ll likely pick up on that quickly.
Ok but has anyone ever had good rose petals? They’re so good. Slightly sweet, tender, and very light.
My husband berates me because i "can't take a complement." Why would i want more complements from him?
But why wouldn't you want a compliment from your husband? My husband still compliments me even after almost 35 years. I don't understand your logic.
Load More Replies...Any introvert out there wanna be friends? I don't know why, but I ain't got any.
Hell yeah. I tend to hit a point where being around others is too overwhelming and I feel like I'm going to either have a break down or panic attack.
Introverts can also make for excellent leaders, as they are likely to listen to their team members' ideas and observe how they’re actually doing and feeling. They will speak thoughtfully and address the team when it’s necessary. They also will understand that the loudest and most extroverted worker may not necessarily be the most valuable employee. Introverted leaders will notice everyone’s work, even the quietest person in the room.
More like 'an extrovert found them, liked them and dragged them silently, internally kicking and screaming to do social things'.
I always hate things like this. As an introvert I don't need to be "saved" by some extrovert. There's nothing wrong with me for being an introvert.
Sigh. Introverts are not inept kids or exotic pets to be "adopted". It's not cute, it's demeaning.
I met a lovely quiet man over 32 years ago and we made some people. They’re our friends but they do get a bit loud every now and then.
I can practice a joke for a while and it never fails, I can't remember the punch line.

I feel like I'm doing time for crimes I didn't commit. I wanna go hoooooome!!! My bed and cats are there 🥰
For me, this is when I visit one place in a day.. even if that place is the kitchen!
No better way to start the day than bed rotting for the first hour.
Mmmmm...my bed feels delicious. Flannel sheets, flannel duvet cover, fat and comfy pillows, memory foam mattress, and a heated mattress pad = HEAVEN. Took me several years to figure out this winning combination. I've discovered that I sleep best in winter, with the window open and a fan running, with a white noise machine.
White noise machine FTW, otherwise I’d hear a mouse sneezing a block away and wake up.
Load More Replies...This irks the hell out of me. I always give people a gracious way to say no. "Hey, if you're not doing anything, would you like to do 'x' with 'y' people on Friday?" If someone asks me what I'm doing on Friday, I always tell them I'm busy, and then if they suggest something I want to do, I tell them I can reschedule my prior appointment.
Shyness is an excruciatingly stress inducing problem, it is not « self centered » I think the majority of shy people would rather not be « shy » but find it difficult to overcome the feelings. Arrogant assumptions just make it worse Mark (it/urgh)
People will find ANY reason to shame someone for struggling. 🙄
Load More Replies...I've always been told at work I seem stand offish and that I need to bond with my team more. I'm like yo, I'm an absolute invert who is intensely private with social anxiety. I'm doing the best I can just being around other people all day without having a meltdown.
Nearly everyone confuses being introverted with being shy. I hate it when I am accused of being shy. I'm not. On the whole I just prefer my own company and value peace and quiet. When mixing with strangers I am often the first person to introduce myself and strike up a conversation. I'm not afraid to try give anything a go, and public speaking doesn't faze me.
For me it's the opposite. I DON'T want people to pay attention to me, it's uncomfortable
Load More Replies...I'm absolutely adore people but they're slowly turning me from an extrovert into a introvert and this is a part of the process lol
Because having to explain reality would involve far more communication than we are willing to do.
Load More Replies...I just laughed way too damn hard at this. I had about a year where this is how my job felt every day. Things are better now, but, Wow! What a ride.
I thought this was some kind of messed up fungus until I realised it was five meerkats.
In one class (first day, new class-mates), we were standing in a ring, introducing ourselves and were supposed to say all the names before us in the ring, before we said our own name. I repeated the names in my head, when all the others said them, and was perfect on my round, but then I was completely exhausted and wanted to go lie down for an hour.
Then when it happens, you were on seven different tracks of thought and end up trying to say 'here' and 'present' and end up saying 'preer'
When will companies realise that social events aren't "social" for everyone. I go to work, I do my job, I go home. The company pays me. That's enough for me. My time is my time.
Been there, done that. "Why did I say Yes? Why did I say Yes?" But once you're back home in bed afterwards, you often find that it was pretty nice, despite all the trepidation...
Nah im not lying if I say that I sound like a pterodactyl screeching
Turn up the music and learn to not gaf. You're singing for how it makes you feel. F everyone else. My car is my stage 😎
Load More Replies...Of course. When you're in your comfort zone and don't feel anybody's judgment coming at you. I can even dance.
Took mine off facebook, but people still say happy birthday, darn it!
Even when I tell them when my bday is they still forget :( Only 2 people remembered this year. 12/26 as a bday sucks!
I feel you. Happy belated! Mine is 12/30
Load More Replies...I learned from my(adult) son to make my own party each year ... fortunately, I'm a teacher so I have a captive group of partygoers! I don't tell them ahead of time, just bring a cake, plates, forks & drinks. All they have to do is Sing ... ;) - makes me happy, every damn year!
Every single year. Of course, you'd think one's own fam wouldn't need a reminder...
Lol my voicemail literally says “Hey, it’s Astro, I never check my voicemail so you should probably text or email me instead.”
Load More Replies...My phone is usually off. People hit me up on FB messenger if they want to call me.
Do you ever get so cranky you're cranky about being cranky? It's like Inception.
That’s usually how I tell my time of the month is almost here lol
Load More Replies...Oh oh, I like to do this thing where I think "What am I feeling bad about now?" when I don't feel bad because there's always something.
As an introvert, I would 10/10 times prefer to give a presentation than have to mingle with strangers or vague acquaintances.
Nope. Even after college, I would rather hide than interact with classmates or strangers.
Load More Replies...I almost flunked 3rd grade because of having to stand in front of the class and give book reports. Sadists
It’s weird: I’m an introvert but public speaking doesn’t faze me. It terrified me when I was an extrovert in my younger and incredibly social years.

Just been through this, 5 minutes before midnight on New Year's Eve in the middle of a dubstep set surrounded by 10 k people. Can't do anything about it. I held on for another 15 minutes tho and then hightailed outta there like there's no tomorrow. Will take til next New year's before I'm ready for another round.
That's usually when the filter goes down and I end up upsetting someone by speaking the truth without remembering what it is i've said.
Load More Replies...This is why when I go to a lengthy social thing like a fesitval or all night program, I always make sure I have my own transport so I can leave when necessary. I often miss the main act because am already done before they come on. Once spent 3 hours in a car waiting for the others to finish.
You have friends here. We might not hang out, but we make each other laugh
Load More Replies...Brain is exhausted just thinking about how to sustain a conversation with even one of them.
UGH at my last work conference thing we had to go around, introduce ourselves, name 1 thing people wouldn’t know about us, name our hometown and biggest career success AND our biggest failure over the last year. It was hell.
Load More Replies...First year in high school, all classes went to familiarization trip. We had to spend three days in guesthouse in the middle of nowhere. Our teacher believed that we were really looking forward to the trip. When we arrived at the place, the class that was there before us was getting ready to leave, and our teacher said: Look, they envy you because you just arrived.." One boy in class said what we were all thinking: "I envy them, because they're already leaving"
Once at a new job, they started with the person beside me (yay, I'm next!) and went the OTHER WAY around the table! (Noooo!) By the time it was my turn, I couldn't remember where i was from.
i hate it when people ask me - what do you do for work? i shrug and tell them and try to change the subject quick. i mean i like my job, but, really....who cares?!
My name is no, my sign is no, my number is no, that's all you need to know.
Sometimes being with others makes me lonely, because I realize none of them are like me.
Load More Replies...When I'm around extroverts, it's easy to explain to them why I prefer being alone. Because being around extroverts reminds me why so clearly.
Depends on what is in the forest, if they are quite and are happy with seeds or bread then I'm gonna be moving in
Or even worse, you think of the perfect solution/response 30 minutes later.
Load More Replies...I feel that's a badly phrased question. What do you want to know about me? We could be talking about my job and hobbies or my childhood trauma.
Scanning for viable versions... Person has mentioned a dislike of three of my hobbies so do not mention them...
And long walks in nature, painting, working out, going to the cinema by yourself, cooking, etc..Introvert does not equal passive.
Load More Replies...Gaming, coding, computer animation. 'but they're all done in a dark room alone'. EXACTLY!
Always. Then you have the "Meet up in the middle of the aisle CHAT. so no-one can get past
And then they get a phone call and now don't move for the next 15 minutes.
And you have to pretend to be as interested in that "something else" as they are at the thing you just need to grab and go.
Except it usually looks good when the hairdresser has finished, then you go outside, it moves and is suddenly a hell of a mess
There's nothing worse than the asshat who always needs to point out that you've been absent for so long or you don't speak as much or the overall introversion you have. You. You are the reason it's been so long. If you didn't predictably make me feel awkward every time, I'd have probably shown up sooner. At first I stay away for me. But at some point I transition to staying away because of you.
The whole time it's ringing, don't pick up, don't pick up, don't pick up. Voicemail, hell's ya! Another encounter avoided.
I just stare at it hoping the new caller will give up without waiting for all 4 rings so I can later say "sorry I missed you but it disconnected before I could answer, so I figured it was a butt-dial."
Mark are you being deliberately provocative? Rather tedious and not amusing.
I don’t know what it is but I love the way you phrased that
Load More Replies...Yes! I'm actually very outgoing and fun when I get to know someone better. But I have my introvert walls up until that happens.
I have three whatsapp groups with over 200 messages a day. I have not sent anything in three weeks
Ugh, this happens all the time. It comes out in a socially rude way when I totally didn't mean it like that and then I'm like this is why I need to avoid other humans. For humanity's sake.
If they're a good friend they understand this. I have many friends who do this and I never take it personally so don't beat yourself up too much! <3
Load More Replies...YES!! OMG it's hard enough to force myself to interact, please, please don't make me do it early in the morning. I can only communicate in grunts like a cavewoman.
Can we normalize being quiet in the morning ... and then build on that?
The issue is that it is a skill that needs some regular training. If you don't do it ever, it will become harder and harder and you will be caught in a downward spiral. With everything we do, it is a bit like a musscle use it or loose it.
This happens when I'm daydreaming about a story I want to write. Please leave me alone and let me work.
Every morning. And then occasionally through the rest of the day. But especially morning.
Also, husband: "I need to talk to you about something later". There goes the rest of my day overthinking stuff.
You're not always obliged to respond to non-urgent texts right away. Sometimes you're just busy or you just can't deal with it right now.
I will never in my life understand the use of small talk. Such a waste.
I am an introvert, but if it becomes quiet I worry that the other person is angry with me or judging me.... so I babble.
Load More Replies...My husband is a big ole extrovert and talks non-stop. Sometimes I'm like, now is the time for silently ignoring each other before I lose my shite.
Possibly ? But there are far worse to be had. You should know Mark.
Same with depression. "You know, exercise would help, just go do things!" Sure, thanks, I would do that if I could muster up a fraction of a f!ck. Alas... ."
Yeah coz there's nothing better than being trapped in a metal tube with 300 strangers and their farts.
Thought the same, you're NOT away from everyone, there is 300 strangers with you and very near you, like 30cm away, if you're not lucky to have the luxury not to have anyone on the same row :D

Load More Replies...I think y'all have "introvert" and "social anxiety" mixed up.
Harry Potter summed up introverts in this one scene perfectly
Just because I want to be at home doesn't mean I don't want to smell great. I wear perfume so I can smell nice for me, not for others to smell me.
Seen this format before, just noticed the lizard. Crested geckos are cute.
To be really attractive, your mom might want to consider shaving her beard.
And then you just say "nope nope, I was just about to leave" and walk to the changing room with nothing in your hands
Actually, I play it louder so they know not to approach me. It always works when you play a bass-boosted song especially
Can y’all stop hating on extroverts? Like yeah sure it can be easier to have social interaction but it’s not like we don’t have other problems. I get told all the time to “be quiet” or “stop being so hyper” and it sucks. And the “extroverts” that tell introverts to be less introverted aren’t extroverts, they’re a******s.
I'm sorry you feel attacked by this article, but I really don't think anyone is hating on extroverts. Of course we al have our problems, I think introverts tend to feel lonely or misunderstood more, especially in this classic BP mix of introversy, anxiety and depression. Extroverts keep the world busy and talking, so be yourself!
Load More Replies...There are always articles about introverts on bp. How about something for us extroverts for a change or doesn't anyone care about us?
You guys have the whole world. Us introverts are dependant on random internet articles to make us feel connected ;)
