Introverts feel more comfortable focusing on their inner thoughts and ideas, rather than what's happening externally. They enjoy spending time with just a few close people, rather than a large group or crowds, and these folks make up an estimated 25% to 40% of the population.
However, misconceptions about this personality type are still plentiful. For example, many think that being an introvert automatically makes you socially anxious or shy, which is not always the case!
So let's try and get a better understanding of this unique bunch, shall we? For that, we at Bored Panda suggest taking a look at the Instagram meme account 'QUIET.' Its relatable content is like an introvert's virtual diary.

Well, when I am in school, I wait for the class period to end in five minutes, but five minutes feel like HALF AN HOUR.
Not stupid, friends are the most dangerous of all. Strangers you can ghost. Enemies can't stab you in the back.
Omg and it's like I attract these kinds of people too! There have been countless times that I have been stopped in stores by complete strangers that tell me their life stories. Why? I am not a people person at all but they just seem to be drawn to me.
I use sea of stars and cassette beasts as an excuse to be an introverted extrovert
to solve this problem, stay to the very end of the credits, until after the house lights come up, after the ushers kindly ask me to leave, and cinema security has been called
Haha...yeah...looks over as Asian mom kidnaps, beats, and buries my dreams.
it's from the dust ferries. Because honestly, I don't know how that much dust and dirt gets stuck on a fan that never stops.
Why on earth do you let a unannouced visit to even enter?? Yell through the mail box or open a window.
Had a postie come to the open kitchen door while I am chopping vegies for spag bol and belting out Faith No More "falling to pieces". He just left the parcel on the doorstep and I only saw it when I turned to the fridge to get out mince.
