[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How long are these visits, OP, and how frequent are they? You probably just need to suck it up and not expect everybody to do things your way. That’s what good hosts do. [/quote] Yeah, no. Especially if you are visiting someone’s home for a multi-day visit, you go with the flow of the house. You are there to visit them, in their home; it is you who needs to conform to your hosts. If you “need” more stimulation, take yourself on a walk or a point of interest if other people want to rest and recharge. Sorry, the annoying one is you if you expect your hosts to stare at you and talk to you all day long. You sound like an exhausting houseguest. [/quote] And you sound like a self centered shrew. [/quote] NP. I think there should be give and take, for sure, but one of the problems is, there is never “enough” for some extroverts. There’s no compromise, there’s no meeting halfway. There’s no “we’re each giving what we can and being understanding.” They are set in their ways that visits or vacations = together, talking, engaging 24/7. There’s no way to find common ground. I see introverts giving more of themselves, but extroverts just taking with no level of appreciation or compromise. And yes, it’s extremely exhausting. [/quote]
