[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on what you want to get out of life. I was more of an introvert as a child but now enjoy being around people a lot more, especially when it comes to my kids. I want them to have different experiences and not be alone all the time. DH is perfectly happy as an introvert-- sure, we'll have friends over once in a blue moon but he could do without it, unless he's suddenly in the mood to BBQ and it's a spontaneous decision to invite someone over after work on a Friday. The differences are also apparent when it comes to how we want to spend our weekends-- he's fine fixing things around the house, I'd like to get out, take the kids on a weekend overnight drive. He says we can do the same thing at home. I want to get out.

So again, if you want the same experiences out of life, it's good. If you're constantly butting heads about how to spend your free time, alone vs. with friends, at home all weekend vs. away visiting family/friends, doing activities that get you out, there could be problems.

Covid seems to have brought a lot of this to light more. I want to see people again, even if it means wearing a mask and/or sitting six feet apart over a drink. For some introverts, I imagine this is all a dream come true. [/quote]
