[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As introverted as it gets. I need about a week’s recovery for every two hours of social interaction. One hour if it’s a romantic connection. Ideally, I see friends four or five times per year. [/quote]

I think it’s weird to want to be around people all the time. To each their own. [/quote]
Research shows that human connection is beneficial for everyone. You are an outlier.

Personally I find the loudest self-proclaimed introverts are the most self centered. They don’t like people because they like themselves better. I know a few absolutely lovely introverts that don’t make it their identity. They are the ones who are enjoyable to be around when they do socialize.[/quote]

“Everyone”?  Really?  It would be helpful if you would cite the relevant research.  I’m curious about how the researchers  categorized people in ways that would allow them to confidently apply a finding to “everyone “ — since that’s not something you see a lot in personality research.  I’m also curious about the percentage of introverts in their samples. I’m also curious re: how they operationalized “human connection “ — since, obviously, not all types of human connections are “beneficial. TIA
