Introvert or extrovert?

I think i am a introvert after reading this link, it all fits. I learn alot about people by studying them and their body language. I'm a good judge of character because of that.
The only thing i don't think i am in a introvert is that most introverts need to be alone after being with other people all day. i can't stand being on my own. one to two evenings is fine but spend the rest of the time with my friends.

I think I must be an introvert, but I'm quite outgoing somedays. If I'm in the mood I can be the life of the party and keep a large group entertained with silly stories. So not sure, maybe a shy extrovert or a outgoing introvert! LOL [lol]

Lol Lolabelle. Maybe you're like me, bit of both. I'm shy but very cheeky when in a situation i am comfortable in. My mothers partner gets a bit of that and so does my partner ;) i just get it back lol. But despite being shy i will and can talk to just about anyone and its only personal things i keep private. Nothing else matters lol. Jox will know bout my cheekiness;)

I just realised that I'm not at all secretive, I am so honest and open that I get myself into trouble constantly. I blab everything, and am the kind of person who cant nut out a problem unless I talk around it for hours. Much to the horror of my hermit loner of a husband. :eek:

Hmm i see how you feel that way as i am the opposite. i've always been somewhat introverted but as i get older i am becoming a bit more of an extrovert. I was so shy as a teenager but now i've lost that shyness alot and will speak to absoultly everyone and now have the confidence to tell someone who needs it where to go.:)

I had to go on a training day for work a while ago. On it we had a questionnaire to fill in. At the end of it we were given colours. I was a Blue and green.
Apparently the Reds are the extroverts.
The colours are Reds Yellow Blues and Green or a mixture.

I think it used a lot in some industries. I believe Transocean put your colours on the safety hats so you can tell what sort of person you are speaking to.

Perhaps we could all where our own colours when out.

Interesting thread, most people claim to be neither one nor the other. Are they lost too?

Depends where you want me to put you;)

It is interesting how so many people see themselves as both. Shows its not clear cut as to whats what when it comes to personailty

I guess I'm an introvert, because I've just started to think 'green.'
