It seems like everywhere I go, there are just extraverts abound. They’re loud and they’re proud, but right here, on the internet, I know there are plenty of introverted pandas reading this. So this one goes out to you guys. 

Anyone who’s snuggled up with a good book on Friday night, who works entirely remotely and who orders whatever they can online to avoid social interaction, we hope you enjoy this article that’s dedicated to introvert representation. Below, we’ve gathered some of our favorite pics from All About Introverts on Twitter, so be sure to upvote the ones that make you feel seen. (But thankfully, not literally. You’re safe in the comfort of your home, don’t worry!)

Tom Hardy is a very underappreciated actor and person, I love him. He's right, all I need is my dog, snacks, and youtube.

When I still worked, my old boss asked me what I was doing on my vacation that I took a week off for. I said, 'nothing'. He didn't understand. I said, 'I guess I'll putter and do whatever'. He didn't understand and looked at me funny. He just couldn't get how staying home could be enjoyable. I'll never relate to extroverts even though I've been adopted by them.

I had a similar situation but the other person described my time off as a "staycation".

I Love my own space! Putting in my air buds, opening up Pandora, and walking for hours! No one talking to me, no one making me pause my music, every 2 minutes to talk. Sitting in my place on the sofa, binging on a good show, alone... priceless.

    My ex was from a family of talkers. 5 people in the room, all of them were talking, none of them were listening, I walked in and wondered who were they talking to. Sadly, 20 years later, we divorced after years of me being unable to speak. I now live mostly on my own, with friends with wildly different life experiences, we talk, and listen to each other, mostly, and exchange ideas and histories. An afternoon with interesting friends is more communication than I managed in an entire marriage.

    Dudeeee, my dad would ask me “are you sure you don’t want to go outside to the party (at our house)? You should socialize.” Okay, well, the kids my age don’t see me as a real teen, the younger ones whine about every little thing, and my sister and her friends bounce around activities like bees pollinating flowers. Plus, I need to keep up with school!! No one will miss me, no one did.

    When I was in primary school I was super introverted and pretty much mute in class for 7 years. Whenever we did group reading activities, even with my friends, they would always either ignore me or make such a fuss that I can actually talk

    I am without a doubt an introvert myself, so I have to admit that many of these photos speak to my soul, pandas. I have no problem being social for limited amounts of time, but if I don’t get my one day a week completely alone when working from home, I start to go crazy. It can be so exhausting trying be “on” when in public, so there’s nothing better than walking home after a long day and not having to speak to anyone for an hour, or relaxing on the couch on a Sunday morning. Socializing too much gives me an actual headache, and when I don’t have time to decompress by journaling or taking time to process my thoughts, I start to spiral. Being an introvert is just something I am, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that, despite what some extrovert-biased media might tell you.

    That’s why pages like All About Introverts are so nice. It can be challenging to find introvert representation that doesn’t just portray us as socially awkward, shy individuals who are scared of ever leaving our homes. Sure, that may be the case for some people, but most introverts are perfectly normal in public; we just cherish those moments when we finally get to be alone. I can’t fully relax until I’m by myself, and I have always been that way. “Although we live in an extrovert world, introverts are valuable, centered members of society with so much to contribute,” All About Introverts writes on their site. “Our articles will highlight many of the things that make introverts extraordinary.”

    Introverts are an often misunderstood group of people. You might assume they’re always quiet, shy or plagued by social anxiety, but that doesn’t have to be the case at all. Whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert simply comes down to how you spend energy and how you recharge, according to psychologist Carl Jung who coined the terms in 1920. If you turn inside to your own mind to gain your energy back, you’re an introvert. And if you need social interaction to give you energy, you’re an extrovert. All of us can be perfectly fine alone or being social with others, but one of those things will be more exhausting for you. Extroverts tend to have much more representation, as they might demand a bit more attention, but actually one-third to one-half of all Americans are introverts. Let me hear you roar, introverts of the world!

    I think a lot of what brought my introversion to the surface was years of working in public-facing jobs, where I also had to answer a constantly ringing phone. I now hate both having to talk to people—-especially where I’m forced to be nice while they’re free to be as nasty as they can be—-and answering phones. Unless it’s my husband, other close family member, or extremely close friend, you can for-f*****g-get me answering right away, or even calling or texting you back quickly, unless your voicemail or text states that it’s an emergency. It’s nothing against you, personally. I just hate the interruptions and the feeling of being trapped and unable to utilize my fight or flight impulses.

    Oh, the moment I walk in the door, put on my comfy clothes and sag into the adjustable bed to chill for the rest of the night in peace. It's as good as sinking into a warm bath after being chilly all day. The relief is intense.

    It has taken me a couple of years to convince my neighbors that I'm not sleeping, not depressed, not an alcoholic, just your run of the mill misanthrope. It's not that I can't empathize or feel compassion for people, it's just that humans aren't my favorite species.

    To people I probably seem: indifferent, stuck-up, depressed, aloof, or crabby. In those moments I am: Anxious, thinking a million thoughts a minute, pretending to observe so no one notices I’m not socializing, actually observing because something is cool, unsure of what to say, and thinking of a new story plot. Also recharging. All the time.

    A few of the most common misconceptions that introverts face is that they’re shy or unfriendly, that they cannot be leaders, and that it’s difficult to get to know them. But none of these things actually have anything to do with how introverts recharge their batteries. They can be just as kind and friendly as anyone else, they just might not have the energy to be “on” in front of people at all times. They might become quieter in a large social setting if they’re running out of energy, but if you speak to them one-on-one, they are likely to have a lovely conversation with you. And they can certainly have wonderful leadership qualities. They’re usually great listeners, great at analyzing situations, and they may be seen as less intimidating, which can help people trust them.

My partner is an extrovert which actually works very well as he talks when I don't have the energy to in a group setting and he always has something to talk about when we're alone. -- He also very much knows I need alone time, so I get that too :D

They've been here longer. The woman who lives there thinks using a leaf blower is a competitive sport and will spend all day chasing a single leaf right outside my window where I spend most of my time.

    This one hits home for me, I’ve had more than my fair share of this same exact scenario here. I’m moody I suppose, there’s times I love talking to people (which has garnered me a reputation for being a “social butterfly”) and then there’s times I just don’t feel up to it and don’t want to talk to anyone or see anyone; like the post, if I hear talking outside or see people, I’ll just wait till the coast is clear to throw out the garbage or check the mail, which is usually late at night or in the wee hours of the morning 😂

    For a previous Bored Panda article featuring painfully relatable introvert memes, we reached out to Jenn Granneman, founder of Introvert, Dear, and she was kind enough to have a chat with us about why she started an online community for introverts. “I started Introvert, Dear in 2013 as my personal blog. I was dating an extroverted man, working an extroverted job (teaching), and living with an extroverted roommate. I wanted to write about what it was like being an introvert living in an extrovert’s world," Jenn explained. "In true introvert form, I wrote the blog anonymously for almost two years because I had no desire to be in the spotlight. Today, my blog has become the world’s largest online community for introverts and highly sensitive people. With the help of 'quiet ones' around the world, I’m on a mission: to show introverts and highly sensitive people everywhere it’s okay to be who they are."

    We also previously asked Jenn what being an introvert means to her. “Being an introvert simply means I prefer to socialize a little differently than extroverts do," she explained. "I love to have meaningful conversations with just one or two people at a time, rather than make small talk with a big group. I socialize infrequently and in short bursts, and I need plenty of downtime afterward to regain my energy.”

    I live in an area where there just isn’t one grocery store that has everything I need, and has it in great quality or quantity (I used to have that when I lived in a large city, but now I live in a rural area). So I have to leave really early in the morning to go to two grocery stores, plus a beer and wine store, as one of the grocery stores doesn’t sell beer and wine, and the other, across the state line (4 miles away) does sell it, but charges out the ying-yang for it. That’s my Saturday morning “adventure” every week. Both grocery stores are also on a major route for a bunch of beach resorts, two of which aren’t far away, so when it’s a holiday weekend or “in season”, it takes a couple hours to drive, get though the store, and checkout (because, of course, they only ever open up one Express and one regular aisle, no matter HOW busy it is), then get home and unpack. Not that I mind it, really. I just wish my “adventure” was a lot more interesting and, well, “adventurous”.

    When I left my last job, I told them that I was blocking all job related contacts. If needed to contact me for any legally required reasons, they'd have to do it through the US mail. That was my last email to them.

    Benefit/welfare/Government sometimes ask this on forms, mainly to save time trying to contact you in a way you dislike; but it also gives useful information if you're disabled (eg I'm deaf; I struggle with spoken English; I have cognitive or communication disability, etc) ... or if you're just trying to Claim to be so

    “There are times when I might attend a big party or a concert, but generally, I prefer to hang out at home or in intimate spaces,” Jenn previously told Bored Panda. “I can make small talk, but doing so takes a lot of effort, so I avoid it when I can. I cherish solitude. My favorite weekend 'plans' are no plans at all. I tend to keep thinking about certain issues, problems, or experiences long after other people have forgotten about them or moved on to another topic. I make my point using a handful of words rather than hundreds."

    I've been stuck in an elevator twice. Once in London, England when I was 16. Too crowded. Earlier in NYC in a skyscraper when I was 9. Elevator had a door open button and when I pushed it for fun the doors opened in between floors. I was alone so I froze in place and then the doors shut and it continued. I'm not crazy about elevators but I still use them. I'm a survivor

    Seeing as it's causing some confusion, here's the deal. First, that's not a 3, it's a Z, one of the symbols from the International Phonetic Alphabet, a system that allows you to express the pronunciation of any word in any language in a universally accepted and standardised manner. The z represents the "j" sound (as in "juice"), and the d is an unvoiced consonant that affects where your tongue is when you start the J; it's more like the sound in the middle of "adjust" than at the start of "juice" (depending on your accent/regional dialect/native language it may or may not be apparent).

    My entire friend group, except for my best friend are extroverts with like a gazillion friends from 3 different middle schools who came to my high school. They adopted me into their friend group and literally forced me to join the Student Council. Thank god I hid the day they rounded up people for positions. You know how Shaggy always leaves Scooby and says every coward for themself? That was me. They forced my best friend to become Vice Prez. Karma came back to bite me though, because all of my classes require group projects every quarter, and you can't be with the same people.

    “Introverts are still misunderstood, despite the positive attention that they’ve gotten in the media in recent years," Jenn previously told Bored Panda. "When you’re a quiet person who doesn’t say much, it’s easy for people to misread you." She also went on to dispel some common introvert misconceptions. "That our need for solitude is about us, not the people in our lives," she explained. "Sometimes our friends and loved ones feel hurt or rejected when we spend time alone. They shouldn’t — introverts are simply wired to need that downtime to restore their energy. It’s not about you; it’s about us. If you have an introvert in your life, please don’t feel hurt if they occasionally decline your invitations or ask to spend the evening alone."

    I mean, that's fair. I CAN'T sing, but if I'm the only one who has to hear it that doesn't mean I WON'T. Not going to inflict that on others. If you hear me singing then we are *super* close.

    Like, you want them to make an effort because it’s hard for you to make that effort, but when they do you think they’re pitying you because you’re alone, not because they want to actually be your friend. I feel lonely until I want to be alone, then the efforts they make when I just want to be alone and I’m not feeling lonely are disregarded and I regret it later when I feel lonely T-T

    This happens to me all the time. It hurts my ears, and my head. Too much noise, or certain tones, actually cause physical pain in my ears. I don't know if I'm overly sensitive, or just live with really loud people. I've never been the doctor about it.

    I am an extrovert who also enjoys long periods of being in my own company to recharge, and my best friend of 30 years is a solid introvert. We just tell each other that we are introvering if we need no contact to recharge. Unless we really need to talk, we absolutely respect each other's solitude. I think every extrovert needs an introvert friend and vice versa. She still credits me for pushing us to be friends. Glad I did.

    I really wish the internet had been invented sooner. Not because I love being able to look up whatever random thoughts I have and explore topics I stumble upon just by using the computer I hold in my hand (which I love, btw), but so that I would’ve known in my 20’s that being an introvert was ok and going out and getting myself drunk so I didn’t feel awkward or socializing was not necessary at all. I could’ve just stayed home and saved my brain cells.

    The friend I made four years ago I don’t keep in contact with, because I didn’t have a phone then and the chances of meeting your summer camp/homeschool field trip friend is slim

    Agree. The better word may be “asocial” in the sense of not being social or not seeking out company.

    On a side note, I really don't think that this encounter ended well for this shark.

    Ah, it’s just a little mayo on the burger I obviously wanted plain. It’s alright. If you could bring me some napkins to wipe it off that would be lovely :) and yeah, a little undercooked, but meat is meat. Can’t faint due to low protein
