[quote=Anonymous]1) When did you realize that you were an introvert? How does being an introvert affect your relationships? A friend told me I'm one when I was in my late 20's.  It explained SO much. It affects my relationships in that I bow out of big-group things.  I'd rather get together with six different friends at six different times than go out with a group of six.

2) For those introverts that are married to extroverts, how have you found a good way to work through arguments? Do you ask for time to process before engaging in conversation? Do your spouses tire you out with conversation?  I took debate in middle school and realized I can be pretty quick on my feet.  I may come back later "And ANOTHER thing ....!" but if I notice there's a lot to think about I'll just say "This is a lot to think about and I love you too much to respond in the heat of the moment and say something I'd regret.  I'm going to [whatever as long as its alone] and let's talk about this tonight/tomorrow."

3) If you were a son or daughter of extroverted parents, what is the best way your parents connected with you? When did you feel understood the most? When did you feel loved the most?  I really liked going for walks with my mom after school.  We did that for years.  We also would watch thought-provoking movies (don't overthink that - we psycho-analyzed all kinds of crap) and discuss big issues in the commercials.  [/quote]
