I'm pretty sure we introverts absolutely HATE when people call us shy. Because I sure do.
One time at a bank a lady asked why I was so quiet and this guy yelled 'cause she's soft spoken' aka shy. likeeee stfu lol I hate that shit oml.
test
No, I don't!
You know, when they say I'm shy, I say: ' You betcha, I'm a Shy Guy!!' :p
YES
..but ..but.. she said, 'I don't think you are shy'.
I'm not at all, most people I know are more than me, I just don't like being around people I don't know or more than 3 people I do, and need/like a significant amount of time to myself.
As an introvert, I can also say that it can be very tiring to interact with others. We lose energy, extraverts gain it.
Fiona McCann Oh yes, i get tired :(
lmao so true
Fiona McCann this is so real
Not true a friend of my who is pure introvert gains energy aswell it's shifting to paradigm of sharing something with other person rather than trying to maintain an image or being insecure...
Fiona McCann spot on!
I love how introverts are seen as sitting in a cosy room, curled up reading a book but honestly we just sit in the dark staring at a screen
Thats so true.
Yup
Sooooo true
Kindles.
I do both
Me: Extrovert
Mom: Ambivert
Dad: Introvert
Uncle: *pervert*
Huh?
bruh
Really??🤣🤣🤣
Diehard World yeah creepy uncle bob his phone pings when I send my roblox gf a message
What
Why do I feel like only 2% of the population around me is an introvert, yet in the comment section everyone is an introvert?
Cause the extroverts are mostly out hanging with friends as opposed to watching science videos.
TFTM Lol true but even in my classes, 90% of the students contribute in conversation to the lecture and I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't participate. Yet on the Internet, there are tons of introverts like me.
It makes sense.
Consider what he said in the video about introverts not needing the same level of excitement to be satisfied. While an extrovert would rather experience the fun of a group hangout, we're happy as is with just UA-cam and chill.
Introverts are quite active on the internet. Many introverts pretend to be extroverted in real life probably because society has an "extroversion bias" as mentioned in the video.
We are that 2%, we are a cult
Introvert since birth.
Mawa J. Mayne same, even before I knew what it meant I hated people.
Nerd Nation introverts don't hate people
Most do. People are digusting creatures. us introverts included.
Sophie Matthews well now don't you have a lovely mindset? I am an introvert, and I know plenty of introverts, hating people isn't an introvert thing. Just like the video said, it's crowds and being the centre of attention that's unsettling for introverts. We do actually like others too, life must be sad if you hate everyone
Mistake since birth......
Mom: Introvert
Dad: Extrovert
Brother: Introvert
Me: Introvert
Basically when my dad is not at home we are all very quiet
Well when my dad isn’t at home we scream very loudly a lot as my dad hates loud noises but also likes loud noises around his friends
mom: extrovert
dad: extrovert
sister: I didn't ask her yet, but I'm 99% sure she's an extrovert
me: pure introvert -.-
@@ianplayssomestuff3307 that's me hate loud noises at home or with family....but also likes around my friends or in public ...
what does it mean?
am I an introvert or extrovert??? or something else?
@@memezarqueen1415 Your opinion around loud noises doesn't necessarily determine introversion or extraversion. It's more-so how you feel in social situations, or your level of boredom and/or excitement. I'm very introverted (I also just suck at talking to people), but even though I hate loud noises, it doesn't guarantee my introversion or extraversion. If you want to figure out what you are, introvert, extrovert, or even an ambivert, then I recommend that you hang out with friends or family for a couple of hours and see how you hold up. If you get bored or lose focus quickly, I'd say you're most likely introverted. If you're actively particpating in conversations and finding yourself enjoying being with people, you could be an extrovert. Or an ambivert. Dunno how that one would feel though.
Im the only Extrovert in my family...... You don't know the PAIN
I‘m an extreme introvert and I have social anxiety. My life is awesome
Please stop t series brofist 👊
Hope u recover from anxiety... I feel bad for u .... being introvert isn’t a bad thing... JUST LOVE YOURSELF
same with me bro
Hmm I'm a extrovert that also has social anxiety? 🤔
Kinda sucks because i want to communicate with others.. but can't and freak out thinking I'm gonna say something stupid.
Me too. I hate large crowds and meeting new people. I would rather just talk or hangout with the same few people I like and am comfortable with than talk to new people lol. I have especially a hard time talking to a cute girl I may like.
I'm an introvert. I just stay in my room everyday and surf youtube. Also like to make lame Let's Play videos.
I found my twin
I found my triplets

Introvert. Not shy at all, but don't like being around a lot of people and like a lot of time alone.
amen, I specially love it when its so early and walk around the street when everyone is sleeping.
and I like night time because I'm invisible kinda.
Jonathan Joestar Yeah, early morning and late night walks are the best.
It also tends to have the best temperatures, but thats somewhat unrelated.

53.5% Introvert
47.2% Extrovert
00.3% Do We Even Exist?
No... "ambivertion" doesn't exist.
Probably you are simply an extrovert who has only bad days, like anyone else. Or you are an introvert who likes to be the center of attention, but only with people who make you feel at ease.
A person can be extroverted or introverted, as shown by the MBTI theory. But everyone has an introverted and an extroverted side, inside his own personality type.
Each side can be expressed independently of person's basic personality. He/she chooses which one to express according to the situations and the people he/she is interacting with, the personal emotional state, etc.
Insecurities, behaviors and actions have nothing to do with the personality :)
@@DonyDeBa No... "Ambivertion" is definitely a word, you can search it up, or find it in the dictionary.
I do agree with what you say though, *there are alot of introverts and extroverts that can suddenly have the opposite preference.*
@@IgorNetoAnimation A lot of things have names, but that doesn't mean they are real or have turned out to be true over time. Think about things like unicorns and mermaids or, more seriously, scientific theories that have proven to be incorrect. If you hypothesize something and you give it a name, this does not imply that it is true, at least until it is proven. But even if it's proven that something isn't true, it doesn't mean that it isn't beautiful and/or has not something to teach us. For example, fantastic creatures can be useful in creating beautiful stories and novels; they tell us about the folklore of the people who invented legends about them, etc. The incorrect scientific theories leave us something about our process of analysis, testing and discovering process of their invalidity. And they are a step to more correct theories.
So, going back to the heart of the matter: ambiversion. Psychological experts and psychological theories (such as MBTI) agree that it does not exist. "Ambiversion" doesn't exist because you can't prefer both Extraversion and Introversion - one is always going to be stronger than the other.
Your inner core is extroverted OR introverted but, as I explained in the previous comment, you can express both sides, depending on situations, emotional state and people, independently of person's basic personality.
An easy way to try to understand if your true self is introverted or extroverted is to try to notice and answer to these questions, IN GENERAL and objectively: 1⃣ do you feel alive, *do you get energy from acting outside?* from external situations? from interacting with people? OR 2⃣ *do you get energy* from your mind, *from your inner world* of thoughts, ideas and beliefs? do you feel better if you are in your mind, because the inner world come before the rest? do you look at the world through your inner world? If you could choose OBJECTIVELY between interacting with other people going out with your friends *or* an evening reading a book / playing a video game (with friends or without), would you choose the second option?
Thinking about it, which of the two options is more intimately true for you? Taking into account that we all have our own interiority, which must not be confused with introversion, and vice versa, our positive or negative contact with the external world must not be confused with extraversion.
In any case, the problem is that people create a lot of garbage from psychological and scientific theories like MBTI, so that what is correct is often misinterpreted. Ambiversion is one of these mistakes. As well as believing that some psychological types are better than others. So you have to be careful ;) Sorry about this long answer, but it was necessary
Here is me
Talking to froends and family: extrovert
Talking to literally anyone else: introvert
101%
Introvert - lose energy from being around people.
Extrovert - gain energy from being around people.
I feel it
do you understand what energy means?
♡ᘜℓᎥѕѕᎥcℓε♡you're probably an ambivert
Matias Sandoval lmao
Casey J you should stop saying bullshit
-Antisocial: I refuse to socialize.
-Lack of social skills: I can't socialize.
-Shy: I'm afraid of trying to socialize.
-Introvert: I don't feel the need to socialize.
Know the difference !
Edit: Instead of "antisocial", it should be "asocial" as I've been told by the *linguists* below.
Make sure you look up the definition of each!
Schizophrenic Enthusiast THIS.
Schizophrenic Enthusiast thank you mate
I'm a mix of 3 and 4, but a full 2 when I have to talk one on one with my crush
Schizophrenic Enthusiast truuue
Schizophrenic Enthusiast Actually, refusing to socialize with people is called being asocial
So am I the only extrovert who likes watching science videos and reading books?
I don't know, but screw the norm, this I shall do.
I am too! Finally someone else. 😄
Yeeeeee
I agree completely.
Another video said that no one is completely extroverted or completely introverted you can have both traits in you.

*SOCIALIZING*
What's that
StaticAster It's when you talk to people and go to party's......I don't like it XD XD
Ur right
I'm an introvert and I absolutely love extroverts, great company & funny people.
How?
I don't want to be mean or anything, but you saying extroverts, great company & funny people is just not true.
It is an assumption you make. Extraverts CAN be great company & funny people, but Intraverts can be as well.
Extraverts can also be not so great company, and also not funny.
It depends on what you find great company and what you find funny people.

Snuggle Muffins I'm also weird man, I'm that guy that has to talk with everyone and always makes the first move, but at the same time I rather enjoy playing games with my friends or walking in nature alone then going to a party. I guess all people are different eh?

that's so me 😂
Snuggle Muffins sammmmmmmmmreeeeeee
I'm good at starting a conversation but suck at continuing it, I think we would make quick friends XD
I wouldn’t call myself an ambivert, but I definitely switch between the two. Some days I can never shut up, and some days I just don’t want to talk to anyone.
That means you are an ambivert.
Sorry, correction; I mean Omnivert. ^^;;
Sameeeee
jomegadude Me too!!!😎
I used to call myself an ambivert. Lately I consider myself an extrovert trapped inside an introverts body.
Me too , often i lean towards the extrovert side more when like , talking to people but leaning towards the Introvert side when working on something (i super super hate working in groups)
Mom: Introvert
Dad: Extrovert
Brother: Extrovert

is saying that youre an ambivert bragging ?
Ambiverts aren’t a thing, it’s just an average of extraversion or introversion (By the way, I’m a introvert INFP lol)

Dony DeBa Thank you for backing my point ;-)
As an introvert, I don't care if I have friends or not(Don't worry I have friends), whereas my extrovert friend always was depressed that he didn't have any friends. So i feel in this day and age we are pretty equal
At least you have friends! 👬👫👭
Introverts: Feel like they have to justify their introverted behavior.
Extroverts: I'm busy, what was the question?
True
I hate it when extroverts hate texting..
Der CrysisBZ Same. Oh God... I hate it too😶
texting sucks, I want to actually talk to someone, not type!
lol u sure. I'm 100% introvert and it doesn't apply

Youre surely just a shy extrovert
@@lna913 I think you’re right
Everyone is an ambivert, its just that everyone leans to one side than the other

Relate 100%. For me, I honestly dont mind staying at home and having quiet time but after a while I need to go outside and meet people/ talk to someone.
I wish I become an ambivert.Cause I can get best of both worlds.
I see myself as a introvert, like I have only a couple of friends that I know. And I'm not a big fan of crowds or any large party or events

Being introverted is usually a symptom of something else, usually mental illness.
I'm introverted and group works are one of the worst things ever
Lehcar ikr
Lehcar Exactly!
Especially when the others in your group don't know what the heck is actually going on...so you end up with a shitty grade because dealing with their stupidity is too energy draining
That's true! Another horrible thing that can happen is when you're the only person in the group who puts so much effort into a project and in the end, your group mates get the same grade as you.
Lehcar Definitely agreed, it's happened way too many times!
When you're an extrovert but hate social situations:
ERROR.EXE
I'm an extrovert but I act conventionally introverted when I'm at a big event (pre-covid). I just sit in a little corner the whole time for absolutely no reason, even though I enjoy myself more having a conversation with a stranger
@@flyingspacebrainedidiot contrary to what most people think, introversion and extroversion isn't directly linked with your ability in socializing, it's how you restore your energy (I'm not talking about some chakra bullcrap, I mean your excitement and feeling good in general). An extrovert may not be very good talking to people, but they will feel good when they manage to get in the conversation. In the same way, an introvert may be good at socializing and talking to others, but they'll get exhausted as the time passes, since it consumes their energy. Though I'm an extrovert who loves talking to people, I've seen both cases and it's pretty normal
Being an extrovert that has social problems is complete torture! You wouldn't understand the plain unless your one of them 🥺
i ama and extrovered person and i felt that dude

Abhipsha Sahu same
Same.
I can only talk to two people without getting annoyed. My friend, and my grandmother. That's pretty much it.
It's interesting how solitude is like the backstabbing friend you once had.
One day you're all fine, and the next the loneliness swallows you whole, leaving you sad.
Abhipsha Sahu Yes.
just so you know by commentingyou are showing an extroversive quality, hopefully this teaches you something about yourself ;)
Robert Dicke you do have a point, however, extroverts tend to go out in the world and talk to people in real life. unlike me. XD
At home or with my friends (Best friends) I'm an extrovert.
At school or outside I'm an introvert.
Am I an ambivert?
I'm exactly the same! *le gasp*
Na, that's normal. Extroverts can have social anxiety near new people and Introverts can have friends.
I think you can only truly be an ambivert If you can switch between the two very easily
No... "ambivertion" doesn't exist.
Probably you are an introvert who likes to be the center of attention, but ONLY with people who make you feel at ease, like your best friends.

@@DonyDeBa Jung's extroversion/introversion isn't the same as OCEAN's. Jung's is more of an exoteric/esoteric dichotomy.
Why is everyone being so mean to extroverts?
I'm an introvert, my best friend is an extrovert and we love each other to death!
Y'all are giving us introverts a bad name by lowkey cyber bullying the extroverts? Like get a life and stop whining about your self diagnosed depression.
My friend is a girl extrovert she plays the role of being a wing woman she introduces me to other girls she's straight but I kinda like her but I couldn't say when other people tell us we look cute or look nice I just smirk then she gets angry at them but I just pull her out of it I'm very much in the friendzone state now
Its funny cause most of the time i find extroverts bullying introverts not only on internet but in school and real life too and its really funny that you think you love each other to death he's not gonna die instead of you. he's not gonna give you opportunity to get a job instead of him 99% these freind things are fake the only one whose gonna do that alot for you is your father and mother. 45% chances are that even your own brother will not sacrifice his happiness for you if he's grown up or your lil bro

I agree! Im extroverted!
I am an introvert, but I don't hate other people, I just don't like groups. And in my eyes group projects are the absoluut worst. 😖
Group projects are the worst. Especially when you are forced to work with a bunch of people you can't communicate properly with. Just let me work with my friends, dammit!
every group project is me being told my idea is dumb and having to do it their way. every. time.

FjollaVlogsTV sammmmee
FjollaVlogsTV pretty much me
I am opposite. Extrovert in school, introvert at home
👍 yep
Relatable
Hated group work, am an introvert af. I don't think one is better than the other in general. It probably depends on the given task/situation which one would be better.
Axel sypkens smit I hate group work too!!!! Actually everyone does.
Indeed, because group work really is Bullshit. I would neither consider myself an introvert nor an extrovert, but in my view, group work is like an analogy to communism: It is unproductive because you are rewarded for not having own ideas and not doing actual work.
Where did you get the idea that communism is unproductive? History proves the contrary.
When communism is involved, people are rewarded the same despite putting in different amounts of effort. So they are more inclined to put in less effort, so there's less incentive to work since they get the same thing. So communism is less effective than just having everyone work for their own wages.
Yeah same. And I am one of those people whose introversion has cased anxiety and moderate depression. I'll have my good days, and I'll even sometimes feel great and that I can do anything and have this weird burst of positivity and social energy. It's an on and off thing.
i feel like most people who call themselves ambiverts are extroverts who think that being introvert is cool
Its literally that, its just shy extraverts who don't know that ambiverts are just another way of meaning average x(
Everyone is an ambivert if that's the case, of course people are gonna be on both sides
But there will always be a side that a person lean to more
No, actually, there are more ambiverts than introverts or extroverts. If you ignore ambiverts, there are more extroverts, but ambiverts are the majority of people, they just act more extroverted towards other people. I don't think you need to hate on other people to express that stereotypes are weird and that introversion isn't all so fun to have as a trait, which is what I think you were implying. Ambiverts are perfectly valid
Im probably gonna get hated for this but im an extrovert!

Diana Orynbaeva I have this "problem" too! I have a large group of friends (20 people) we're all besties and when I'm with an other group that's not mine I feel uncomfortable but that doesn't make you an introvert (not that being introvert is a bad thing of course) it just makes you..a little shy?

15 seconds in and I have to pause.
EXTROVERTS CAN LIKE READING AND HATE PARTYING.
Just because being around people gives me energy and being alone makes me feel drained doesn't mean I want to be the center of attention or that i'm not smart and studious.

You should see the super super biased comments lol , they're attacking you extroverts like you're the worst. From a Ambivert.
@@premiumgarbage9506 yeah, an us Vs them situation
Its the opposite for me. I hate reading. I love partying.
Thank you!
Because extroversion is about happiness, self-confidence, and sociability.
I am somewhat of a 50/50.
Like, a lonely extrovert.
Lmao 😂😂
Then you’re an ambivert
Same
Mike Jameson you mean an amtrovert
Introverts aren't lonely, they are alone. There's a difference.
I love being alone and love socializing. But when I'm with people who are too talkative, I become quiet and shy... 😄😄😄
TheSimcraftFixion introvert
TheSimcraftFixion yeah same if people around me are loud and moving or whatever I kinda just sit there
That's an ambivert characteristic. I am very much a similar way. I don't mind being alone but I also don't mind being the center of attention. But if people get too talkative or the environment gets too loud, I want to be in my little world and potential find a quieter place.
I am the SAME way. I am definitely a strong conversation contributor, but the moment they start doing too much (forgetting to breathe and letting the other person talk too) then something happens and I get quiet. On the other hand, if I'm talking to a person who is shy and/or isn't contributing much to the conversation (such as an introvert) then I probably won't talk to them for very long. I tend to retreat because I don't know what to do with them. lol

I'm an ambivert. I love attention, but it gets really draining after a while. I often prefer to be alone, although after being alone for a while I crave human interaction.

Most of my friends are introverts while I’m a huge extrovert. I’m glad to know that there’s scientific evidence, be I thought I was wield for the longest time until I found out about extroverts because the media is obsessed with introverts almost
What? The media is obsessed with extroverts.
I love you guys! This channel is my summer mood
I'm an introvert. I stay at home all the time and that's why I'm binge watching AsapSCIENCE lol.
SAME
Same right over here!
Naira Amadea same! 🤣😂😂
Nothing wrong with that! :)
Naira Amadea Same here. I just watch Netflix, Anime, read books or manga, listen to music, and watch UA-cam.
I'm really confused.
I know I'm an introvert _now_, but i used to be the biggest extrovert ever! When I was younger, around 5-8, I used to be so outgoing and happy and fun! I used to just go up to random people and ask them to be friends, i used to be the happiest person ever.
And now I'm antisocial and have social anxiety. I don't understand what changed me and I really want to know.
Galphoxic true as a little kid I was really out going loved to talk to ppl but as I got older I completely changed I....was now really quiet
you grew up, life ain't nice and something about reality must of clicked in your head
You were taught to feel shame, that's what happened. You were probably bullied for being yourself and internalized it. You were taught to feel afraid of being embarrassed. Happened to me.
A happy person, a shy person and introvert are absolutely different independent traits. As an introvert you can be shy or bold, it's not a problem to be open with people telling them that you don't want to talk to them. And you can be a happy introvert. You can talk to random people, you can be extremely friendly. But then a hundred friends of yours ask you if you wanna go out and drink and listen to loud music and yell and shoot stuff all night and you say "no, fu, you're sick". That means you're introvert. An extrovert will just go ahead and have fun because any social fun is good to them. The more the better. They relax this way, you relax by staying away from the crowd.
People mix the things way too often.
You're using anti-social incorrectly.
I have an anxiety of feeling the time is passing so fast. It makes me feel so pressured
You made me even more confused. Thank you.🤣🤣

You made my day.
In my younger years, really until having children I was absolutely an extrovert, but something changed in me deeply since losing their dad. Having to deal with the grief and fallout of this. It made me even more protective of my children, but also very bonded to them.
Since all of this transpired, and having to survive it… I’ve absolutely become an introvert, and I am very strategic & careful in all of my life choices now… for my children most of all.
I love the introverted and extroverted discussion. I think that overall we all need to have certain desires. I personally like the enneagram for that.
I've got some videos on the enneagram specifically.
I am an extrovert, learned to be an introvert for safety reasons.
Nevermind, I'm an ambivert.
RannPNut good call
grandpa suga loving your username
RannPNut I don't think you can learn your temperment.
RannPNut I'm a mild extrovert
RannPNut I think I'm an ambivert
I only like socialising with people I'm drawn to. Most people I feel rather uncomfortable around actually but some people just seem… good. And they usually become my closest friends.
Starry_Dragon Im the 100th like, Yay
Same :) I'm friendly but don't show it in public yet sometimes I have a good feeling for people so I make an effort and be myself. It has never failed me weirdly enough.
Thank god I'm not the only one
Starry_Dragon congrats on being just like everybody else
Starry_Dragon same
I've really been interested in Mbti and personality types lately it's interesting and enjoyable to know myself and who others view
But I ended up finding its more fun and relaxing just to treat people as how find them with out analyzing them because everyone is unique ❤️
Just an advice I found it good for me and loved to share it ✨
I'm introvert but I'm also highly adventurous and risk-seeking (bungee jumping, skydiving, roller coasters and parties) so I guess I'm an ambivert? Idk Myers-Briggs says 90% introvert XD
FineSarcasm I Think perhaps the problem is that these categories are too simplistic. To assume that wanting to be around people necessarily correlates with being adventurous while not feeling energized by being around people is akin to being chronically anxious and nervous. There are a lot of social butterflies out there who wouldn’t even do non-risky activities like riding a rollercoaster or watching a scary movie let alone doing something that had actual risks. Social gatherings can be some of the most boring things out there, even parties with loud music I must say I do not find that interesting.
Caution: This comment section is overflowing with introverts.
*And* very cringy ones too
this channel is about science.. what do you expect? Also, introverts do tend to be cringy since they have less social interaction than others
Haha, all the extroverts are out doing something else while the introverts are sitting behind their pc's :D
+VoltZ
Chill. I'm introverted too.
+Jay Kub
Damn straight.
My extroverted cousin is in the mall tho.
I think both are fine, so long as they respect the preferences of others. There's nothing worse than an aggressive extrovert who doesn't respect an introvert's boundaries, or an aggressive introvert who is constantly complaining about extroverts.
Though, there is an uneven ratio. Introverts are the ones usually full of themselves nowadays and are seen to be "bitter". So, extroverts and their "loudness" should shut their asses up. Just an idea.
Although I agree that there is an uneven ratio, I believe a lot also has to do with age, for example, little children from the age of 5 - 12 are more likely to be extroverts rather than introverts because they are younger, more sociable, and less self-conscious. In the leading years, adolescence, people become more self-conscious and some even switch to being introverts in this stage. MOST IMPORTANTLY, if someone is an introvert at a young age, adolescence can make 'introversy' a curse rather than a personality. People say that this switch between the two side is very easy (if someone is an introvert, they can easily become and extrovert and vice versa), at this age, but in fact, this is not true... What IS true is that the LEVEL of 'extroversy' and 'introversy' diminishes over time. (People will tend to become ambiverts as they become older). I myself remember being told that I was an extrovert when I was younger, and now I am an introvert, I accept his change and think it for the better
Extrovert who doesn’t Respect introverts boundaries’ my mum towards me. ‘Get out of the house and socialise’ ‘Mum, I like it here’
‘You are gong and I am forcing you to!’
Well, **explodes before can say anything** (someone holding a detonator in a hand says SHUT UP and leaves)
This channel once again saved my university life
Ambivert!!!! I didn’t know this was a thing until today! I’ve never felt fully extrovert or introvert, but now I know there is such thing as being in the middle! Thanks guys!
I'm a introvert and my parents think I'm depressed 😂
same. they think that I have mental health issues. They force me to do things I don't want to. My life is not easy

I’m an ambivert but more extrovert
A year ago, i had only 3-4 friends in school, but this year, everyone in my class and other classes was my friend. I suddenly became an extrovert without knowing it. Now that school has ended and that i will see my friends only a few times, i cried so much in the last day of school. I said goodbye to all my friends, i thanked them for accepting me as who who i was and even made a lot of videos with them. If only i was like this the other 2 years...
And trust me, they are the best friends anyone could ever ask for, they never bullied anyone, they are super funny, and they're always there for you, and i consider myself to be lucky to have been in that class.
Every time you do a pleasurable activity, this triggers a neurochemical responde where your brain releases dopamine , a hormone that makes us feel good ,the fact that determinates if you're extrovert or introvert is the sensitivity to this neurochemical and the amount of it that your brain releases, an introvert gets immersed on it's thoughts because they get a high level of dopamine from it , and they get overstimulated from social interaction because they release more dopamine than the amount they can handle , an extrovert is quite the opposite, even if an extrovert concentrates on it's own thoughts , the amount of dopamine they get is very low in comparison to an introvert, and when the brain craves dopamine it released a neuronal activity called "boredom " that is an unsatisfactory state where you crave stimulation, very similar to the codependency that an addict has to it's own addition, and every time an extrovert socialises with someone they trigger the same amount of dopamine that introverts release only by thinking, so yes, introverts never get bored due to high sensitivity to pleasure, and this factor plus their introspection is what allows introverts to spend more time upgrading their cognitive abilities,(extroverts are incapable of this because of their crave for stimulation resulting in distractions from the activity) leading me to the next phrase :
"A person that never gets bored can achieve anything "
Introvert.
yeeeee
Claude Alpha nice
Claude Alpha Me too! :)
Its time i shoot u bunch of introvert phonies
Welcome to the family
Ambivert. i like to be with people but sometimes i just cant handle it and need to be alone even if i like to be the center of attention
Şтυғғ that's and introvert. Remember: they like to be around people too
when I brain storm with two people I do great but when I talk in front of people I get nervous and lose my attention even though I like it. the other thing is I am very energetic and crazy around people who I actually feel comfortable with. At other times I talk in front of a pack or group of people to conquer my fear of nervousness and humiliation
i think term socialising with people is loose term here because if you meet new people and they are really confident and present their ego you can act closed as introvert but with close friends who get along with you you can be yourself and act wild and open and there can be more scenarios, like new people but also not arrogant as they take conversations more fragile and want to know you and have a good time
you lean to introvert
Same
I always felt there was a space in the middle of the 2, and so I'm an ambivert and proud ;)
That's because most people define introversion and extroversion as a 2 sided coin, either is one, or the other. Actually, it is quite of a spectrum; everybody has main traits at one side (or even in the middle, which are ambiverts), but they have some characteristics of the other too. I, for example, am an extrovert and I love talking to people, especially in huge groups, it feels like I have a stamina bar that keeps going up; still, I wouldn't refuse a good afternoon playing video games (wether I'm alone or not), that's something that I love doing since I was a child
I am Brazilian and I am learning English with your videos, thank you for teaching me English and science.
Where's my introvert squad at?? :)
we're all home
Behind a screen ;)

Diego Acevedo :D
***** Hey, how are you today?
I think I'm an ambivert. My family probably think I'm an introvert because I spend most days in my room studying or playing video games, which is fun, but at the same time I love being around people (as long as they're nice) and I'm usually in the center of attention when hanging with my friends. Can anyone relate?
yes
Me too. I like my quiet time and nature quiet walks etc. Then when I'm around people I know and like, I find myself loud and talkative and in my element.
Acejd same
I can relate EXACTLY the same, like that is literally what I do and what my family thinks of me
I'm the same
Damn the whole comment section talking bout being introverts, I feel left out
Okay so my bestfriend is smarter than me at science so lately I’ve been watching your videos EVERY DAY because you’re the only channel I can get knowledge from and NOT be bored so thank you and I hope I can finally tell my bestfriend more than he may know👌🏼
Introverts would be AMAZING at public speaking...
...if we even wanted to..
Blueberry Muffin lol. Some of our writing skills are off the chart but we choose not to speak 🤐
Blueberry Muffin when I try to chat with loud people, I mess up, be embarrassed and panic. XD
Introvert at school and extrovert when going to places
Ken boy Yep, when I'm in school I'm in introvert, but when I get home I'm extrovert
Ambiivert or whatever it's called
Samee
lol I'm the opposite, extroverted at school and introverted everywhere else
😂😂 yess
I am actually introvert person. I have a few friends but i'm happy with them. I think you should love your self because thats who you are.
Me : * watching this to find out what one I am, knowing I am somewhat in between *
Me after watching it : “Ambivert, ambivert, WRITE THAT DOWN!”
Ok ambivert
it's not a thing
I am a attack helikopter.

I think everyone here is either an introvert or an ambivert... *thats why we are on UA-cam wasting our life away*
Márk Moldován love the positivity there 💖🙂
**explodes**
Márk Moldován awnnn, that was so cute and motivational
its not a waste, its what we prefer to do. going to lame parties and making small talk with random people seems more like a waste of life to me
Nah, I'm an extrovert.
I'm 9000% Extroverted.
I get anxious by being alone.
I get anxious when there are people around me
Dude im 100000000000000000000000% extroverted
I’m 10000% Introverted
I get scared by social time
I love being alone
How is it even possible to be an introvert
I guess I am an introvert! I always enjoy my alone time, but I always get REALLY CHATTY when it comes to just a 1-to-1 conversation. I only have 2 friends, and I'm only chatty with them. (and like, my closest family members, ofc)
Now, _that_ is a great explanation of introverts! This video is pretty helpful.
im extrovert but i'm socially awkward xD
Same here.
Philip J. Fry because shyness is different from introversion
which also goes to say that you can be extroverted but socially awkward 👌🏼
Same XD I always say something stupid in crowds of people then cringe about it for an hour or so, then repeat XD
_poofy_haired_girl_ God :"D thats totally me!
I’m exhausted reading all these comments, I need to recharge.
😂
"Ok Boomer"
I legit feel like the last person alive who isn't an extreme introvert
that reward thing’s really true, whenever i get a certificate for anything or praised about anything it just doesn’t mean a lot to me and i don’t know why. the only reason i act like i really like an award i get is to make it look good so my parents get me something for free
I think we need a VOTE POLL

I was so introverted, I went full circle to realize we are all one person. Now I can talk to anyone the same way I talk to myself.
@Michael Schaumburg So you're not there yet? :)
@Michael Schaumburg I understand. I've found not identifying with anything is arguably the most freeing.
I’m an introvert, my whole family AND MY WHOLE INTIRE GRADE are extroverts idk how i am surviving
I'm an Ambivert. Best of both worlds.
