[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Introvert here - do not force large groups and gatherings (especially frequently) on your introvert family. We hate being exposed to large groups of people randomly. [b]We like to prepare in advance.[/b][/quote]

Gatherings are so painful and so stressful. There's no "it's no big deal" gatherings. [/quote]

I agree. I’m an introvert and if I don’t have advance notice of some social event or gathering I get very annoyed and irritable.

I also really hate doing things on Friday nights. This is because all day long at my job, I have people coming and going from my desk, telling me things, giving me things, asking me to do things. I sometimes deal with the public. All day long, it’s people, people, people. The last thing I want to do is go to happy hour at a crowded bar. Now, I’m perfectly fine making plans with my spouse on a Saturday, when I can have “me time” earlier in the day, like going for a run or just cleaning and cooking with some jazz music on. I NEED my me time and I need people to leave me alone when I say I don’t want to go out![/quote]

If I had fully realized this about my introvert DH, I wouldn't have married him.  Nothing wrong with introverts, but it really clashes with how I like to spend my free time. And makes my time with just him seem very boring in comparison.[/quote]
