Hope everyone is having a good week so far. We have a favor to ask. If you enjoy us posting more videos around psychology and dealing with mental health issues, could you support us by sharing our videos on your social media like Facebook, Twitter or Tumblr? If you did, let us know so we can thank you below!
I noticed it’s a male voice saying my partner. I’m bi and find it impossible to get people to understand that yes people who are not cis gendered can me introvert somehow a lot of people have the thought that those in the lgbt community are always outgoing. How would you get people to understand that is an inaccurate stereotype?
Psych2Go thanks for the honesty! My gf and I have been together for 10+ years We are just like you! And her having time to go for sushi with girlfriends is paramount to her happiness and our friendliness to eachother, we each need together and alone time. Respect I guess lol
@True thank you for those kind words. :) @Miss T, where do you think the misconception come from? Why do people think that someone who is bi can not be introverted? @Charley, thanks for sharing and relating! The video is actually based on an article from our site.
As an Introvert, I actually prefer having an Extroverted girlfriend as long as she understands my introversion. I like my girlfriend to take the lead, help me "be my voice" in a sense
I feel like a good introvert and extrovert relationship would be the extrovert helping the introvert socialize a bit more and be less anxious and the introvert helping the extrovert be more chill
So the extrovert parent helping the introvert to tolorate small talk to some degree so they can getin to the deep shit and be more open while introvert helping extrovert partner be a little more silent less noisy and and to be able to self reflect every once in a while seems legit
I love comfortable silence... It's so soothing. You can do something, together, or alone and you don't need to say anything! Just enjoying each other's company.
I used to have a friend where comfortable silence was possible from the very beginning of the friendship but now that I’ve moved I’ve made friends with a bunch of new people that just don’t like silence. Every second has to be “oh I did this over the weekend,” or “ I hate [insert person’s name here].” It’s annoying. Of course I talk sometimes but I just want that feeling of just simply being content with the other’s existence again. I miss it.
Yeah I like being in a comfortable silence around my friends, also I mainly just spectate them rather than join in unless they ask me something. The only time when it is a problem is when it's me and ONE other friend sitting in silence. When it's like that, I'd rather be either not spoken to much or more preferably, left alone. Sometimes 1 other persons presence can drain you as much as a crowd of people
The only comfortable silence I like is when I’m swimming laps or in the ocean or hiking... but those times aren’t really quiet since there’s a lot to listen to... probably because I’m as extroverted as a person can get. My gf is an introvert though so this is something for me to figure out. The reason I clicked this video. Even when I’m reading or watching something Im moving around or I want to talk about parts of what I’m reading or watching. Right now my gf teases me about it but yeah or kisses me and says shhh or hush please... I doubt that’s going to happen every time though. Not sure if I can do comfortable silence 😕
I am a ambivert... So my introvert boyfriend and I am really good in a long term relationship Edit: mental health got in the way, it didn't work out. It was a good 3 years and 11 months tho.
I'm an ambivert who is prone to introverted tendencies. I do love going to places like concerts, the movies, bowling alleys, restaurants, and conventions. But most of these gatherings have less to do with the people around me and more with my personal interests. I'm good at striking conversations casually, but in any sort of business or family setting it's difficult for me to say anything. Anything dealing with stuff I don't know I struggle with. And of course I need time alone to recharge especially after a big day.
I'm more of an ambiverted extrovert. And ambivert with more extroverted tendencies. I really do need at least some alone time, and I'm still rather private about my life when it comes down to certain things. But even then, I don't necessarily prioritize alone time on the same level as an introvert, or hell even an ambivert. And yeah I am pretty private about my life. But again, that's only when it comes down to certain things, not everything. Other than that, I do really enjoy socializing with people, even when I'm not even socializing myself. It just gives me more of a secure feeling inside than if I'm alone. But again, that still doesn't mean I hate alone time. I just don't crave it as much on the same level as introverts or ambiverts.
falimo is just kidding I have no idea I mean yeah it’s just a couple What makes it different than the other couples?? And when I think of a cute couple I automatically think of bubble, genderless people that are just in a relationship that is well developed So it’s like bubbles people right Like above They’re just circles with faces and bodies that are kinda just tubes with arms So you can fill them up with a guy, a girl, two girls, two guys, unbinary, genderfluid people, and etc. So for me it’s just a couple But I guess it’s because gay couples are stereotyped as “cute” So they have to say “AWWW CUTE” Ah the only time I use “cute” to describe a couple that I don’t know if it’s actually cute or not Like someone mentions “IM GAY” and I’m like “COOL MAN” But when someone is all like “oh I’m dating someone” and then I’m like “sweet” and then they bring up someone of the same gender I say “cute” because I don’t want to give off the impression that I’m not ok with it Because I totally am In fact I would go so far as to say love with anyone and anything is ok as long as both of them have consented Well I guess objects can’t really consent..... but besides that Like I’m cool with furries as long as they aren’t raping animals and just being in a consensual relationship with one (idk how that would work but if they can figure it out, go for it) And I’m cool with incest But it would kinda be not cool if they had a child knowing that that child would suffer from all the diseases that comes along with being a child born out of incest So I would be chill if they wanted children, they adopted or got a sperm in plant (if one or both of them where female) Cause I mean love is love What more about it? But I’m not gonna select certain type of couple to be “better” or “superior” or how everyone is calling it “cute” In my mind that’s kinda like homophobia but flipped Of course it’s not as bad but imagine this A straight couple goes out on a friend’s gathering with a couple of single fangirls, a gay couple, and them Now these fangirls are the best friend of the girl in the straight couple relationship and they’re all fangirling over the gay couple and how “cute” they are And the girl of the straight relationship says “hey, are we cute?” And her BEST FRIENDS say “oh, I mean well maybe if you where gay” And this might be hidden by a “oh yeah totally” or a “sure” but that’s exactly what they mean Saying that they have to change themself to be “cute” or to her friends to even acknowledge them And yes she should get new friends but every time I hear a fanfic fangirling about a gay couple and not caring about a straight couple for the very basic facts that one is gay and one is straight I imagine just that And that is why I don’t do that (Haha sorry for the rant)
Yeah this relationship isn’t healthy if the introvert is getting his way all the time. There is zero compromise and the intro err isn’t making any effort on his end and is expecting his extroverted boyfriend to do things his way.
I am in a relationship with an introvert now, tbh it's stressful as some moments coz we both have different interests, I brought her to some crowded places for year end countdown and she said ok at first and when we reached she just went into full silence and said she's not comfortable with this enviroment, I mean, this is our first end of the year countdown and she's just kinda ruin it. We have an arguement after countdown and she said I didn't respect her introvertsion, so I think if you're with and intro/extrovert partner, you can't do anything but to deal with it
Ikr, I'm actually trying to Google ways to make it work for the both of us ( me extrovert, him introvert) & literally everywhere it's abt how I should sorta tone it down for him? But I really wanna do fun things too. He refuses to go to theme parks, concerts, movies, idek anything fun. He only likes going to like restaurants to eat that too if it's not crowded. It's sorta tiring :/ and lowkey annoying :/ idk how much I gotta give up :(
It's not about one side getting their way all the time its 'bout doing what's more confortable, besides the entire point of a long term relationship is to learn from each other, rather than trying to force them into things they dislike you could work together in searching things that you Both enjoy, being an introvert in an extrovert society isn't easy so try to see things their way for a change if You compare every person with yourself Well... You'll be alone in no time (and thats the best-case scenario) they have thoughts and needs too so instead of thowing the towel You could make an effort, there's nothing to lose in trying... OF COURSE that also means You BOTH have to put your weight on it...
What about from the perspective of an extravert? I'm an extravert, but most of my friends are introverts, and sometimes I really need the social interaction. This means any time I interact with them, I feel like I'm the one being a burden to them by "forcing" them to interact with me irl when they could just be on their own.
Being an introvert myself, maybe I can help a little. Since having a lot of social activity isn't super fun all the time for us, possibly make plans with each friend separately. Or as a group if they like hanging out with each other, but keep the interaction with each person lower but the total interaction higher. Make plans with one person Monday, another person on Tuesday, maybe grab brunch with a few of them on Wednesday... hope you understand what I'm trying to say XD Hopefully in this way, their social batteries don't decrease too much and yours increases.
Not really, if they really are your friends they wouldn't mind talking with you a lot since it's easier for them to talk to you and enjoy your presence/listening to you, unless it's a topic they don't like. Also, be very careful when talking about "x" topic with an introverted because we either like it or absolutely hate it (most of us are like that), just like dubstep.
I may have some good points to hopefully help you since I'm an introvert myself with extroverted friends. Have a talk about some of their interests since they'd be more engaged to listen in a conversation about that rather than something they don't know and don't really care about. I my self haven't really had that experience properly but it would feel great though, probably would make my friend relationship with another person better rather than mine atm. I also like spectating my friends conversations rather than join in since I feel better that way. Just like what Obadeki said, try to do things as a group (no more than 5 since that would be very crowded. Yes I know that sounds wierd) rather than singular since if you're both not talking much, they might not actually be having much fun. I know this is how I feel but maybe it can help somehow and be relatable
Franco Couste I've known my friends for almost 4 years now but I still don't talk to them a lot. Sure I engage in conversation whenever I think of something or it's about school but otherwise I'm usually not talking much (unless I'm texting, then I'm very social). I really like them still (as friends)
I believe an introvert would last so long with an extrovert because they can both teach each other things they would never know. Knowing that there are endless possibilities with what fun as a couple would have.
Psych2Go we just listen to each other and have a "willing to give anything for the other" attitude sometimes it can be a struggle but we make it work :D
I am in that exact situation right now. I am an extreme introvert and my partner is the extreme opposite. We've been together for 2 months now and we sure do have quite a few situations where we don't really understand each other because we think and act in such a different way. We've had some conflicts and I'm sure there are more to come until we mutually get what the other one needs in certain situations, but in the end, when you love someone its all worth it. ❤️
Hope this is gonna be good for a long time! I have a question and a story to tell... I'm a very introverted person and I was with an extroverted person but a good person. I was never in a real love before and I was very happy but still Uncomfortable at social interactions ect... I'm a very shy person and feel bad inside me very easily and all the problem of an introvert person and anxious about social contact... One day that was the end and she said to me many things that she blamed me for like : Being too shy, I don't take initiatives, Im too sensitive, I'm too negative, I think too much and deep, I send too long messages, and I'm too "human" ect... That we are too different and we are not good for each other. And she even said me that its better that end that cheated me... She also said that she wanted to still be friend... After that... the only mood and feeling/thinking idea that I have even today is just to desapear and have nothing more with her. I feel bad everytime I think about her, or the few time that I have seen her I was just so bad inside me and that was the most horrible moment in my life... So to protect myself I decided to just avoid her at best as I can and just I don't want anything to do with her. I'm just protecting myself and I'm happy like that... She isn't a bad person, but I can't do anything. The only thing I think is that this is the best choice I was able to do... I thought I was accepted for who I am, but I was wrong. So this is like they paid for lied to me, my thoughts are : "they just loose someone very rare, this is just too bad for them that's all" I'm sorry for thing extreme long message but I wanted to explain my story and just having other idea, I'm happy with myself now but that problème is still here and I was just asking for a bit of help if you can ;)
@@pixy3266 so sorry to see about diss..but my bf also an extreme introvert....but i comprimise mysepf to be hpy as an extrovert...we are hvng a long relationship also...sometimes it hpned...
Idk why, but all this is new to me. I had no idea I was an introvert I really just thought I was different lol but UA-cam randomly suggested a video (I swear they are listening to everything) on introverts and that's when I realised I was and my bf is an extrovert. I couldn't understand why when we moved in together everything blew up. We knew each other pretty well we thought before getting together but oh no! Not even close. I'm constantly getting bitched at for almost everything I do and I feel like nothing I ever do is right in his eyes but this is new for me too bc none of my previous bf's ever had problems with me. Only the one I really really care about the most I have the most problems with. We are both trying really hard to make this work but it is extremely hard! None of my relationships have ever been this hard. We've been living together 3 1/2 months now and things get better sometimes then blow up again and since covid things have been harder on me so his constant pressure makes me want to freaking lose it sometimes. I can't take it all sometimes. Its too much! I've always given up on relationships in the early stages if I didn't get what I needed as I didn't see the point in wasting my time or his but even though me and my bf are complete opposites we are both completely amazing ppl in different ways and I've never put so much work in. I'm not used to this situation and don't always know how to handle it but I'm not trying to let go without the biggest fight. So my question is how? How do u do this? Did u guys work it out and if so how??
@@pixy3266 That is so sad to hear. I'm sorry there are horrible ppl out there and I'm sorry it took so long for me to see this post. You could've had more encouraging words when u actually needed it. I've had many times where I needed someone and just on those times specifically no one was available. It's horrible! Honestly, I don't let what ppl say offend me unless it's true but in this case it's different cause it is true but not so much at the same time. It may be true to her and many others but that doesn't mean u won't match with someone well. The thing is most ppl settle and no one should ever have to settle. I've always stuck to myself until I found someone I was really interested in. But next time when you're with someone don't tell yourself this is "the one" ask yourself "is this the one?" It will help with future heartbreaks. Honestly, I give it my all but I don't give my heart until they do first or I feel it is time. When u do give that heart though be careful cause heartbreak is one of the most painful things out there.
@@Angela-rk6yf hi! I don't actually remember much of what I said in my comment, I wrote it like 2 or 3 years ago, since then I've gone past this relationship and it doesn't bother me to think about it again too much. Since then basically I personally just stayed in my introvert state way too much, avoiding basically meeting new people, doing activities with other people ect... So in this sense I really can't give you a solution that could work for you since I gave up on finding a relationship or a way to make it work aha Thanks for the comment to help me, but as of right I don't have anymore problems related to the one I had don't worry. I hope you'll find the balance for your relationship and that it's going to go well!
I’m on here to honestly just find some support because I am an extrovert and my wife is an introvert. we’ve been together for nine years. And sometimes I feel like me being an extrovert, puts pressure on her or makes her anxious. And I try my absolute best to give her as much space. And I have often thought about maybe it would be better if I just try to not talk for a few days or something. I mean, I totally understand that introverts are never going to want to have nearly as much conversations as extrovert. So I make sure that I give her space and not to talk so much sometimes. I just love talking to my wife lol
My boyfriend is far more extroverted than I am, however he’s also perfectly content doing things that are more one on one, or “introverted.” I’m really grateful for that since sometimes we’ll stay within my comfort zone, but many times he also helps me meet new people or do new things that I never would have done on my own, and I appreciate that. It’s a healthy balance.
This somewhat helped. I date a true introvert now and it makes me nuts at times. I can’t always stay inside like he can. I’m not a mega extrovert. I don’t always have to be outside, but I do like to be out from time to time. I did think that I wanted someone to be with me all the time, indoors and outdoors. I’ve been realizing that when I am outside, doing whatever, either actual activity or just people watching or enjoying nature in a park, I actually don’t mind being outside. It’s my way of recharging myself. ❤
I’ve found in the relationship scene I am a magnet for extroverted people. I am very introverted so it’s very funny. I quite enjoy having a extroverted partner or pal as they can pick me up and take me out of my comfort zone, which is important for personal growth.
Thanks for this helpful video... I have a question and a story to tell, I'm a very introverted person and I was with an extroverted person but a good person.

I love this soo much! Even not on a romantic level as an extrovert with several introverted friends it can be hard to understand them at times. Amazing job!
GD SparkerBoy / Sparky_01 you know, it's just a compliment. Even tho it's a free world, gay couples are still put down. Straight couples Don't have to stress about being mocked or anything.
I'm currently "dating" a extrovert girl, we are friends but sometimes is like we want to be closer, and I really like how interesting our relationship is... Is a constant fight that I like to be.
Extrovert and introvert is the best form relationship I can tell and by experience. The extrovert is to be your connection to the world and to open your mind about other things in life. But not too extroverted.
I have the same problem as you! I'm introvert, and he is ... extrovert. But we have other problem > we are 400km away, and we never met. I'm in love with his "online" looking, and i don't know if in real, but i think so. It's so nice that there is another person that had same problem as me and my partner. I'm gay too, and it is so hard to find someone. I'm happy that there is anyone, who managed to go through and succed! I'm worried that this won't happen to me ... he had other boy before, and he got together with me because he lost the other one, but it seems that he getting that boy back. I don't know..
Sorry, but this title is not accurate. This video seems to be very personal and situational rather than being based on research and might thus only work just for a limited amount of people. I think this has been said on the 'How to notice you've pissed off an introvert' video too. These are suggestions, by far not a 'how to' type of video.
Nameless Name Well then again there is nothing that works for everyone Like to calm down my sister blasts music until she goes deaf while loud sounds give me anxiety and I’ve caught myself hyperventilating a couple times because of a lot of noise So needlessly said, it doesn’t work for me And for my mom organizing calms her down while it bores me half to death (Aka a lot of *sigh* do I really have to.....?) Except when my OCD (not the actual disorder I guess just all the things that bug me until I can’t focus Great examples of this is how it’s been 3 days off of school but I can still remember and it’s still bugging me that the homework sign is exactly 16 centimeters too far to the left And how there are different styles of writing throughout the homework bored but ANYWAYS Oh yeah this style of writing comments where I skip lines also stems from that (it bugs me where there is a whole just bunch of text and it’s unfiltered) haha sorry ranting much) Anyways This different things work for different people also correlated to relationships, learning, memorizing, physical activity, and so on So not one thing is going to work for all introverted and extroverted relationships But these are examples of what you could do to make life easier And yes it is highly personalized but your personal experience is the best example for journalism
Nameless Name If you came here expecting a guide on "how to make work a relationship between an Introvert and an Extrovert" then you came to the wrong place. Did you really expect a perfect formula for a relationship? As far as I know these videos give a general idea on what "could be" yet they have certain truth on them. So no, these are not "how to" guides, no one can tell you how to live your own relationships duh.
Usually, "How to" advice videos are based off of someone's experiences, rather than lots of research. Besides, you are never going to find a solution that works for everyone. Whether you are talking about things that help with more emotional aspects, such as dating advice, or even more physical needs, like eating, like some have allergies, or remedies for illness, not everyone reacts the same to all medicines. Unless a doctor gives you something, everything out there is advice, which is just a bunch of suggestions.
Thank you so much! These are very helpful suggestions. Either, I'm with the wrong person or I just have to put some more patience in order to make things work. We've been together for 3 years and counting but she still doesn't get me even when I explain. I could have her watch this but I don't think she'll get it or might make her mad. So much work to do... but again, thank you so much. My comment has been answered.
Extremely helpful advice! Thank you!!! I'm in between an Extrovert & Introvert....I usually stay to myself but don't mind a crowd on my own or with family or close friends. But I need someone that is an extrovert to go with me. So I understand an introvert and it explains so much about my love interest when it was shared with me. And from my long comment and watching this video, I obviously have some insecurities to get over and I am stuck in my head about things (typical Aquarius). Thanks again!
I'm an introvert girl and my best friend is pure extrovert. But now she's in some problems. I wish she would get all the happiness in her life. I will never leave her side.
Me and my friend isn't dating but we are different, I'm an introvert and she is an extrovert.the way we maintain our relationship is by her giving me space from time to time so I have time to charge.
though I'm an introvert (extroverted introvert) i LOVE RPG RP games, though I'm terrible with the average conversation it just helps my imagination run wild and it is a lot of fun.thiat is one of the only social situations that doesn't drain me
I am an introvert too and i love talking and datin extroverts. Ofc those who understand my introversion and give me space, but they can make me talk. Sometimes i really want to talk and just DONT find the courage to do so.
my brother is heavily extroverted while i am heavily introverted. and due to our great brotherhood relationship we are a very capable dynamic duo and i can't wait for the day he and i work the same job so i can see just how well he and i can work together.
That's adorable :3 Personally, I think it'd be hard for someone REALLY introverted to be in a lasting relationship with someone REALLY extroverted. I think they'd both need to sacrifice a lot, and the life styles wouldn't match. However, for people who aren't extreme, the relationship could really help them grow as individuals :)
I definitely sympathize with the comfortable silence part, I don’t want to feel stressed to have to talk to someone I like, like can we just lay in bed and play phone games
I'm an ambivert while my partner's an introvert. I'm glad that this video mentioned giving your partner space because my partner has notified me that he needs a break from daily communication as well. And that it burns him out along with all the work he needs to finish. Even though I know, it doesn't mean that he's not interested in me anymore cause he still cares about me. Yet, I'm an overthinker, and I tend to overthink upon his word choice and responses. Upon that my partner communicates and thinks very straightforwardly. Therefore, I result in several internal conflicts during the minimum times we talk. Are there any suggestions on how I could improve our relationship and provide him with the space he needs while not stressing over our relationship? Thank you!
I'm an extrovert, but my boyfriend told me that he likes that because he doesn't really push himself to hang out with people or go places, so he would like me to go places with him or encourage him for us to hang out with others together.
I don’t know why ppl get so surprised by this. As a more talkative type, I feel like I need someone to balance me out, so long as it’s healthy and we have similar relationships
I’m a introvert and hubby is extrovert. We’ve been married 34 years. Sometimes he does make me upset so its not bed of roses. He has a he shed and I have a she room. Lol!
So the key is to have your own time and space sometimes I guess. I broke up with my ex cuz she just can’t leave me a little space. And finally after I forced her to give me some space few times, she quit. She just can’t figure out how important it means to me. And I was too dumb to solve this problem properly.
Being an extremely introvert I have never been able to express my feelings.. I have buried all my feelings into my heart for 30 years of my life.. and I guess I have to do the same for another 30 years.. I guess when there is no space left in my for any feeling that I can bury or hide that will be the last day of my life..
I'm an introvert but I do RPGs. Both playing and running one. I find they are small intimate groups where I can let all that creativeness out. I'm with friends who don't mind me making a fool of myself and even encourage it. It's for everyone it's true but some of my closest friends are my RPG friends. Running the game or DMing as it's called in the hobby was scary as it requires me being centre of attention sometimes but my players seem to like it as I merely guide them and allow them to shine and have fun. And if they're having fun then I'm having fun.
My boyfriend is an extravert and I was an introvert but he turned me into an extravert... I had to push my boundaries and comfort zone but it was honestly worth it
Kenxie B you might really just be an ambivert. It’s not really about wether you can talk to people or not. It’s more how you feel after engaging in social situations. You can tell after maybe a few days of socializing a lot, how do you feel? Are you tired, ready for more, or somewhere in between? That’s what tells you if you are an intolerant, extrovert, or ambivert.
Something I needed to hear. Thanks for the vid. I hope it can help me with my relationship I have with my online boyfriend, because I have anxiety. Heck, I wouldn’t mind there being a vid on how couples, with anxiety/ambivert/introvert can work things out. Because I’m always on the overthinking side of things and worry and all. I’m not too comfortable with his circle of friends. So, that be an interesting vid to see. :)
I'm Asexual and Aromantic but I still like analyzing love. I can't live anybody, so I like analyzing it and understanding how love and relationships works.
My extrovert roommate seems to like constant dialogue. Constant discussion, which quickly changes to a different subject the second I try to pitch in my opinion. It’s exhausting.
Unless youre a terrible overthinker and if you and your spouse are sitting in a comfortable silence and you start over thinking....."why is he not talking is he mad"
I recently broke up with my extroverted boyfriend, he did not respect me and he was "fixing" my behaviour. I don't like shallow socialisation, he meant well but he caused more damage than fixing. I prefer ambivert and introverts (not the weak and timid ones)
I'm introvert but my bf is an extrovert. He kept asking me out..but we grew up together he knew I was a hermit..and it's hard for me to make friends, I have friends with his friends, close ones. But he wants to make more friends and makes me feel bad that I don't try to make new friends..it's hard for an introvert like me
We have actually! What would you like us to cover on it? You can email your request to Catherine@psych2go.net or your ideas or stories about the content. :)
This may be weird but my extrovert best friend just confessed to me in an all girls school- (We're both girls.) The girls in our class gasped but smiling and they also said "Oh my gosh- They are official! EEEE YASS-" I didn't get any of that but what do I do? I'm a introvert, I will be embarrased if I talk to her that she just confessed to me...
@@JamesOwade Okay. I have some good news and some bad news. The bad news is we can't go in school because of the lockdown. And the good news is we texted from our phones and told I like her. (I like her too okay. Don't hate me... ;-;.) I'm bisexual and she texted "I'M SO HAPPY!! I WISH I COULD SEE YOU RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I CAN'T TAKE THIS LOCKDOWN ANYMORE!!!" Yea and we are both bisexual so please don't hate us ;-;
Daww, this was a cute vid, and definately includes some stuff I'm going to try in the future. Me and my partner are both ambiverts, but I'm a little more extroverted than her which makes a bit of friction in certain situations, so this was helpful.
As an introvert, I would want to date a girl who is an extrovert because it help to expose me to new things and she has to make it a little easy for me to get out of my comfort zone
I'm an introvert and my crush is an extrovert. ITS SO...HARD...TO JUST...talk to him 😖 like....I'm so in love I'm embarassed... ☺️🥰 Everytime i go in his circle he always calls on me to speak because he's never heard me say anything ever since we met unless i needed something from him. When an extrovert is talking to me I'm just like, "Oh...really? That's nice...☺️🤷" "COOL! ☺️" i don't understand there sense of humor most of the time or i just feel shoved in the corner because they're chatter boxes. But he....is....so...🥰🥰🥰☺️☺️☺️🤭🤭🤭🤭 And he's sooooo popular and cool. Like what if i says something stupid...why is being an introvert so hard?
I loved the fact that it was a gay couple because I am part of a gay couple as well! I feel represented and at home, specially bc where I live it's not that open-minded like America or Europe. I loved the video, I really needed this♡
I am an extrovert and my boyfriend is an introvert. I would lie, if i said it was easy. In top of that, he has been diagnosed with autism and i have Borderline personality disorder, so that make it even more difficult. He hates being out in the world and I hate being home to much. I dont know if this video was a help to me yet, but i hope so.
Hey guys, I am a gay man who is an extreme introvert. I have decided to start doing a podcast about issues that get overlooked in gay culture, including introverts, who struggle to be understood. I am looking for gay men to chat with me and share experiences to help me make my podcast real. Also, if you want the space to share your story one on one with me, I would love to offer an interview on the show. If not, I still want to hear from you. It is time for us to make our own space. Brian
I have an introvert boyfriend. This is all true and works. What i like about having introvert bf is that he is honest and patient. So far, I am comfortable with the silence when we're together. Good thing is that I have my own interest and I really learned a lot from him.
Hope everyone is having a good week so far. We have a favor to ask. If you enjoy us posting more videos around psychology and dealing with mental health issues, could you support us by sharing our videos on your social media like Facebook, Twitter or Tumblr? If you did, let us know so we can thank you below!
I noticed it’s a male voice saying my partner. I’m bi and find it impossible to get people to understand that yes people who are not cis gendered can me introvert somehow a lot of people have the thought that those in the lgbt community are always outgoing. How would you get people to understand that is an inaccurate stereotype?
Miss T i understand😄
Psych2Go thanks for the honesty! My gf and I have been together for 10+ years We are just like you! And her having time to go for sushi with girlfriends is paramount to her happiness and our friendliness to eachother, we each need together and alone time. Respect I guess lol
Charley Edwards your very blessed🙏🙏
@True thank you for those kind words. :) @Miss T, where do you think the misconception come from? Why do people think that someone who is bi can not be introverted? @Charley, thanks for sharing and relating! The video is actually based on an article from our site.
As an Introvert, I actually prefer having an Extroverted girlfriend as long as she understands my introversion. I like my girlfriend to take the lead, help me "be my voice" in a sense
Derek Strohm yeah my boyfriend does that for me haha
*How to get a girlfriend in the first place*
I very rarely start conversations, so in general, I end up with more extroverted friends, as they're more likely to persist at talking to me.
Derek Strohm soooo wholesome
Communication, respect, compromise is key.I also did a research on Introvert Extrovert Relationships
I feel like a good introvert and extrovert relationship would be the extrovert helping the introvert socialize a bit more and be less anxious and the introvert helping the extrovert be more chill
So the extrovert parent helping the introvert to tolorate small talk to some degree so they can getin to the deep shit and be more open while introvert helping extrovert partner be a little more silent less noisy and and to be able to self reflect every once in a while seems legit
It is like that with my introverted partner except I'm the one with anxiety and his ability to chill soothes me.
This is the truest thing I've ever heard
True. am an extrovert person but my favourite person is soo much introvert
I love comfortable silence... It's so soothing. You can do something, together, or alone and you don't need to say anything! Just enjoying each other's company.
Nova Maskydox yes I agree but people you can be in comfortable silence with are hard to find for me:(
I used to have a friend where comfortable silence was possible from the very beginning of the friendship but now that I’ve moved I’ve made friends with a bunch of new people that just don’t like silence. Every second has to be “oh I did this over the weekend,” or “ I hate [insert person’s name here].” It’s annoying. Of course I talk sometimes but I just want that feeling of just simply being content with the other’s existence again. I miss it.
Yeah I like being in a comfortable silence around my friends, also I mainly just spectate them rather than join in unless they ask me something. The only time when it is a problem is when it's me and ONE other friend sitting in silence. When it's like that, I'd rather be either not spoken to much or more preferably, left alone. Sometimes 1 other persons presence can drain you as much as a crowd of people
The only comfortable silence I like is when I’m swimming laps or in the ocean or hiking... but those times aren’t really quiet since there’s a lot to listen to... probably because I’m as extroverted as a person can get. My gf is an introvert though so this is something for me to figure out. The reason I clicked this video. Even when I’m reading or watching something Im moving around or I want to talk about parts of what I’m reading or watching. Right now my gf teases me about it but yeah or kisses me and says shhh or hush please... I doubt that’s going to happen every time though. Not sure if I can do comfortable silence 😕
I am a ambivert... So my introvert boyfriend and I am really good in a long term relationship
Edit: mental health got in the way, it didn't work out. It was a good 3 years and 11 months tho.
Pink bunny you are lucky:)
Lucky you!
What is an ambivert? A mixture of both?
waiting for a grammar nazi to get offended😂
Pink bunny omg same
I'm an ambivert who is prone to introverted tendencies. I do love going to places like concerts, the movies, bowling alleys, restaurants, and conventions. But most of these gatherings have less to do with the people around me and more with my personal interests. I'm good at striking conversations casually, but in any sort of business or family setting it's difficult for me to say anything. Anything dealing with stuff I don't know I struggle with. And of course I need time alone to recharge especially after a big day.
Yes, that is me exactly!
I'm more of an ambiverted extrovert. And ambivert with more extroverted tendencies. I really do need at least some alone time, and I'm still rather private about my life when it comes down to certain things. But even then, I don't necessarily prioritize alone time on the same level as an introvert, or hell even an ambivert. And yeah I am pretty private about my life. But again, that's only when it comes down to certain things, not everything. Other than that, I do really enjoy socializing with people, even when I'm not even socializing myself. It just gives me more of a secure feeling inside than if I'm alone. But again, that still doesn't mean I hate alone time. I just don't crave it as much on the same level as introverts or ambiverts.
You can be an introvert and still go to a concert. As long as it's not constantly going out. Every introvert is different.
@@HinataHyuga-qy6qd I never said otherwise???
Oh don’t mind me,I’m just a single introvert alone in the comments
Mason you're not alone 😂
Nope!
MUGEN!!!!
Make some NOIZE!!... LET EVERYONE NOTICE US
Me too
I really really really needed this
Hope it helps!
So wholesome
Psych2Go jhope?? XD I really wanna wanna wanna just dance
I'm an introvert and my bf is an ambivert. We've been together 8 years
Jade Nguyen that's super cool! 😊 Congrats!
oh crap thats a long time and 9 years now how is it?
Jade Congrats. Not so easy for me :(
10 years now? :)
@@eatyourcereal4747 11 years in January 🥰
why is everyone talking about the speaker and the speaker's partner being a gay couple? it's not that special nowadays, you know.
falimo is just kidding It's cool to see the programming dissolving, is all.
It's just cute
falimo is just kidding
I have no idea
I mean yeah it’s just a couple
What makes it different than the other couples??
And when I think of a cute couple I automatically think of bubble, genderless people that are just in a relationship that is well developed
So it’s like bubbles people right
Like above
They’re just circles with faces and bodies that are kinda just tubes with arms
So you can fill them up with a guy, a girl, two girls, two guys, unbinary, genderfluid people, and etc.
So for me it’s just a couple
But I guess it’s because gay couples are stereotyped as “cute”
So they have to say “AWWW CUTE”
Ah the only time I use “cute” to describe a couple that I don’t know if it’s actually cute or not
Like someone mentions “IM GAY” and I’m like “COOL MAN”
But when someone is all like “oh I’m dating someone” and then I’m like “sweet” and then they bring up someone of the same gender I say “cute” because I don’t want to give off the impression that I’m not ok with it
Because I totally am
In fact I would go so far as to say love with anyone and anything is ok as long as both of them have consented
Well I guess objects can’t really consent..... but besides that
Like I’m cool with furries as long as they aren’t raping animals and just being in a consensual relationship with one (idk how that would work but if they can figure it out, go for it)
And I’m cool with incest
But it would kinda be not cool if they had a child knowing that that child would suffer from all the diseases that comes along with being a child born out of incest
So I would be chill if they wanted children, they adopted or got a sperm in plant (if one or both of them where female)
Cause I mean love is love
What more about it?
But I’m not gonna select certain type of couple to be “better” or “superior” or how everyone is calling it “cute”
In my mind that’s kinda like homophobia but flipped
Of course it’s not as bad but imagine this
A straight couple goes out on a friend’s gathering with a couple of single fangirls, a gay couple, and them
Now these fangirls are the best friend of the girl in the straight couple relationship and they’re all fangirling over the gay couple and how “cute” they are
And the girl of the straight relationship says “hey, are we cute?”
And her BEST FRIENDS say “oh, I mean well maybe if you where gay”
And this might be hidden by a “oh yeah totally” or a “sure” but that’s exactly what they mean
Saying that they have to change themself to be “cute” or to her friends to even acknowledge them
And yes she should get new friends but every time I hear a fanfic fangirling about a gay couple and not caring about a straight couple for the very basic facts that one is gay and one is straight I imagine just that
And that is why I don’t do that
(Haha sorry for the rant)
I guess they want more attention
falimo is just kidding
Sir, have you heared about fujoshi and fundashi?
Yeah this relationship isn’t healthy if the introvert is getting his way all the time. There is zero compromise and the intro err isn’t making any effort on his end and is expecting his extroverted boyfriend to do things his way.
I am in a relationship with an introvert now, tbh it's stressful as some moments coz we both have different interests, I brought her to some crowded places for year end countdown and she said ok at first and when we reached she just went into full silence and said she's not comfortable with this enviroment, I mean, this is our first end of the year countdown and she's just kinda ruin it. We have an arguement after countdown and she said I didn't respect her introvertsion, so I think if you're with and intro/extrovert partner, you can't do anything but to deal with it
Ikr, I'm actually trying to Google ways to make it work for the both of us ( me extrovert, him introvert) & literally everywhere it's abt how I should sorta tone it down for him? But I really wanna do fun things too. He refuses to go to theme parks, concerts, movies, idek anything fun. He only likes going to like restaurants to eat that too if it's not crowded. It's sorta tiring :/ and lowkey annoying :/ idk how much I gotta give up :(
It's not about one side getting their way all the time its 'bout doing what's more confortable, besides the entire point of a long term relationship is to learn from each other, rather than trying to force them into things they dislike you could work together in searching things that you Both enjoy, being an introvert in an extrovert society isn't easy so try to see things their way for a change if You compare every person with yourself Well... You'll be alone in no time (and thats the best-case scenario) they have thoughts and needs too so instead of thowing the towel You could make an effort, there's nothing to lose in trying... OF COURSE that also means You BOTH have to put your weight on it...
What about from the perspective of an extravert? I'm an extravert, but most of my friends are introverts, and sometimes I really need the social interaction. This means any time I interact with them, I feel like I'm the one being a burden to them by "forcing" them to interact with me irl when they could just be on their own.
Anna Thompson
Hi. I don't think you're being a burden to your introverted friends. Try and ask them.
Being an introvert myself, maybe I can help a little. Since having a lot of social activity isn't super fun all the time for us, possibly make plans with each friend separately. Or as a group if they like hanging out with each other, but keep the interaction with each person lower but the total interaction higher. Make plans with one person Monday, another person on Tuesday, maybe grab brunch with a few of them on Wednesday... hope you understand what I'm trying to say XD Hopefully in this way, their social batteries don't decrease too much and yours increases.
Not really, if they really are your friends they wouldn't mind talking with you a lot since it's easier for them to talk to you and enjoy your presence/listening to you, unless it's a topic they don't like. Also, be very careful when talking about "x" topic with an introverted because we either like it or absolutely hate it (most of us are like that), just like dubstep.
I may have some good points to hopefully help you since I'm an introvert myself with extroverted friends. Have a talk about some of their interests since they'd be more engaged to listen in a conversation about that rather than something they don't know and don't really care about. I my self haven't really had that experience properly but it would feel great though, probably would make my friend relationship with another person better rather than mine atm. I also like spectating my friends conversations rather than join in since I feel better that way. Just like what Obadeki said, try to do things as a group (no more than 5 since that would be very crowded. Yes I know that sounds wierd) rather than singular since if you're both not talking much, they might not actually be having much fun. I know this is how I feel but maybe it can help somehow and be relatable
Franco Couste I've known my friends for almost 4 years now but I still don't talk to them a lot. Sure I engage in conversation whenever I think of something or it's about school but otherwise I'm usually not talking much (unless I'm texting, then I'm very social). I really like them still (as friends)
I believe an introvert would last so long with an extrovert because they can both teach each other things they would never know. Knowing that there are endless possibilities with what fun as a couple would have.
You're wrong
@@nicoleharrington9086 care to elaborate?
i am an extrovert dating an introvert and we offset each other well
That's great to hear! What strategies do you guys apply? Do you feel the whole introversion extroversion thing is really a challenge?
Psych2Go we just listen to each other and have a "willing to give anything for the other" attitude
sometimes it can be a struggle but we make it work :D
Lucky HAHAHA
crystal cucumber How are you 2 doing?
Ma.JBrony 1 doing amazing! been in love for 7 months now!
Hah, I have signals for everything.
1) Let's leave.
2) We need to talk.
3) Ask someone where the washroom is.
4) I'm bored.
5) I'm hungry.
Etc.. lol
I am in that exact situation right now. I am an extreme introvert and my partner is the extreme opposite. We've been together for 2 months now and we sure do have quite a few situations where we don't really understand each other because we think and act in such a different way. We've had some conflicts and I'm sure there are more to come until we mutually get what the other one needs in certain situations, but in the end, when you love someone its all worth it. ❤️
Hope this is gonna be good for a long time! I have a question and a story to tell...
I'm a very introverted person and I was with an extroverted person but a good person.
I was never in a real love before and I was very happy but still Uncomfortable at social interactions ect... I'm a very shy person and feel bad inside me very easily and all the problem of an introvert person and anxious about social contact...
One day that was the end and she said to me many things that she blamed me for like :
Being too shy, I don't take initiatives, Im too sensitive, I'm too negative, I think too much and deep, I send too long messages, and I'm too "human" ect...
That we are too different and we are not good for each other.
And she even said me that its better that end that cheated me...
She also said that she wanted to still be friend...
After that... the only mood and feeling/thinking idea that I have even today is just to desapear and have nothing more with her.
I feel bad everytime I think about her, or the few time that I have seen her I was just so bad inside me and that was the most horrible moment in my life... So to protect myself I decided to just avoid her at best as I can and just I don't want anything to do with her. I'm just protecting myself and I'm happy like that...
She isn't a bad person, but I can't do anything. The only thing I think is that this is the best choice I was able to do...
I thought I was accepted for who I am, but I was wrong. So this is like they paid for lied to me, my thoughts are : "they just loose someone very rare, this is just too bad for them that's all"
I'm sorry for thing extreme long message but I wanted to explain my story and just having other idea, I'm happy with myself now but that problème is still here and I was just asking for a bit of help if you can ;)
@@pixy3266 so sorry to see about diss..but my bf also an extreme introvert....but i comprimise mysepf to be hpy as an extrovert...we are hvng a long relationship also...sometimes it hpned...
Idk why, but all this is new to me. I had no idea I was an introvert I really just thought I was different lol but UA-cam randomly suggested a video (I swear they are listening to everything) on introverts and that's when I realised I was and my bf is an extrovert. I couldn't understand why when we moved in together everything blew up. We knew each other pretty well we thought before getting together but oh no! Not even close. I'm constantly getting bitched at for almost everything I do and I feel like nothing I ever do is right in his eyes but this is new for me too bc none of my previous bf's ever had problems with me. Only the one I really really care about the most I have the most problems with. We are both trying really hard to make this work but it is extremely hard! None of my relationships have ever been this hard. We've been living together 3 1/2 months now and things get better sometimes then blow up again and since covid things have been harder on me so his constant pressure makes me want to freaking lose it sometimes. I can't take it all sometimes. Its too much! I've always given up on relationships in the early stages if I didn't get what I needed as I didn't see the point in wasting my time or his but even though me and my bf are complete opposites we are both completely amazing ppl in different ways and I've never put so much work in. I'm not used to this situation and don't always know how to handle it but I'm not trying to let go without the biggest fight. So my question is how? How do u do this? Did u guys work it out and if so how??
@@pixy3266 That is so sad to hear. I'm sorry there are horrible ppl out there and I'm sorry it took so long for me to see this post. You could've had more encouraging words when u actually needed it. I've had many times where I needed someone and just on those times specifically no one was available. It's horrible! Honestly, I don't let what ppl say offend me unless it's true but in this case it's different cause it is true but not so much at the same time. It may be true to her and many others but that doesn't mean u won't match with someone well. The thing is most ppl settle and no one should ever have to settle. I've always stuck to myself until I found someone I was really interested in. But next time when you're with someone don't tell yourself this is "the one" ask yourself "is this the one?" It will help with future heartbreaks. Honestly, I give it my all but I don't give my heart until they do first or I feel it is time. When u do give that heart though be careful cause heartbreak is one of the most painful things out there.
@@Angela-rk6yf hi! I don't actually remember much of what I said in my comment, I wrote it like 2 or 3 years ago, since then I've gone past this relationship and it doesn't bother me to think about it again too much.
Since then basically I personally just stayed in my introvert state way too much, avoiding basically meeting new people, doing activities with other people ect...
So in this sense I really can't give you a solution that could work for you since I gave up on finding a relationship or a way to make it work aha
Thanks for the comment to help me, but as of right I don't have anymore problems related to the one I had don't worry.
I hope you'll find the balance for your relationship and that it's going to go well!
0:38 I guess they confused the meaning of anti social here
lmao. Good call.
Lol
Heh. I’m an extrovert, and my boyfriend is an introvert. This really helped! I wanted to learn more of how he felt. I appreciate it! ☺️
I’m on here to honestly just find some support because I am an extrovert and my wife is an introvert. we’ve been together for nine years. And sometimes I feel like me being an extrovert, puts pressure on her or makes her anxious. And I try my absolute best to give her as much space. And I have often thought about maybe it would be better if I just try to not talk for a few days or something.
I mean, I totally understand that introverts are never going to want to have nearly as much conversations as extrovert. So I make sure that I give her space and not to talk so much sometimes. I just love talking to my wife lol
I’m an extrovert and my boyfriend is an introvert, this is really eye opening and helpful information for me :) thank you so much for this video!!
My boyfriend is far more extroverted than I am, however he’s also perfectly content doing things that are more one on one, or “introverted.” I’m really grateful for that since sometimes we’ll stay within my comfort zone, but many times he also helps me meet new people or do new things that I never would have done on my own, and I appreciate that. It’s a healthy balance.
This somewhat helped. I date a true introvert now and it makes me nuts at times. I can’t always stay inside like he can. I’m not a mega extrovert. I don’t always have to be outside, but I do like to be out from time to time. I did think that I wanted someone to be with me all the time, indoors and outdoors. I’ve been realizing that when I am outside, doing whatever, either actual activity or just people watching or enjoying nature in a park, I actually don’t mind being outside. It’s my way of recharging myself. ❤
awww its a gay coupleee!! Congrats!! :D
Ha ha you r right
Weird stuff
jdizzle29376 Super fitting as a gay introvert who struggles with liking extroverts ughh

I feel represented too
The narrator is gay too I think "burden to him."
Gayyyyyeh
I'm an extrovert and my boyfriend is introvert, but we've been loving each other for 3 years now, and we're still counting💙💚
Lucky. My bf is introverted and I’m extroverted. Sometimes he doesn’t want to see me to recharge his battery so how should I deal with that?
I’ve found in the relationship scene I am a magnet for extroverted people. I am very introverted so it’s very funny. I quite enjoy having a extroverted partner or pal as they can pick me up and take me out of my comfort zone, which is important for personal growth.
The fact that this person is gay is fucking awesome.
Agreed
But like can’t it just be noted in our heads it’s not like we didn’t know that (not trying to be rude but just saying)
Thank you! I TOTALLY needed this. My crush is a extrovert. I am a introvert. He still hates me but I think it's getting better.

I love this soo much! Even not on a romantic level as an extrovert with several introverted friends it can be hard to understand them at times. Amazing job!
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas! A gay couple. I'm crying. You both are so cute even though I've not even seen you two. T.T
GD SparkerBoy / Sparky_01 you know, it's just a compliment. Even tho it's a free world, gay couples are still put down. Straight couples Don't have to stress about being mocked or anything.

@GD Sparky_01
It's cuter for us, becouse we can see ourselves in them.
"Cuteness" is in the eye of the observer
I'm currently "dating" a extrovert girl, we are friends but sometimes is like we want to be closer, and I really like how interesting our relationship is... Is a constant fight that I like to be.
This is sooooooo helpful!!! I'm an introvert and have been intimidated by any relationships with extroverts...so thank you
Ruth Graham we're happy to hear this video could be of help to you! 😊
Extrovert and introvert is the best form relationship I can tell and by experience. The extrovert is to be your connection to the world and to open your mind about other things in life. But not too extroverted.
I have the same problem as you! I'm introvert, and he is ... extrovert. But we have other problem > we are 400km away, and we never met. I'm in love with his "online" looking, and i don't know if in real, but i think so. It's so nice that there is another person that had same problem as me and my partner. I'm gay too, and it is so hard to find someone. I'm happy that there is anyone, who managed to go through and succed! I'm worried that this won't happen to me ... he had other boy before, and he got together with me because he lost the other one, but it seems that he getting that boy back. I don't know..
Sorry, but this title is not accurate. This video seems to be very personal and situational rather than being based on research and might thus only work just for a limited amount of people. I think this has been said on the 'How to notice you've pissed off an introvert' video too. These are suggestions, by far not a 'how to' type of video.
Nameless Name But in general this is what works in a relationship
Nameless Name
Well then again there is nothing that works for everyone
Like to calm down my sister blasts music until she goes deaf while loud sounds give me anxiety and I’ve caught myself hyperventilating a couple times because of a lot of noise
So needlessly said, it doesn’t work for me
And for my mom organizing calms her down while it bores me half to death (Aka a lot of *sigh* do I really have to.....?)
Except when my OCD (not the actual disorder I guess just all the things that bug me until I can’t focus
Great examples of this is how it’s been 3 days off of school but I can still remember and it’s still bugging me that the homework sign is exactly 16 centimeters too far to the left
And how there are different styles of writing throughout the homework bored but ANYWAYS
Oh yeah this style of writing comments where I skip lines also stems from that (it bugs me where there is a whole just bunch of text and it’s unfiltered) haha sorry ranting much)
Anyways
This different things work for different people also correlated to relationships, learning, memorizing, physical activity, and so on
So not one thing is going to work for all introverted and extroverted relationships
But these are examples of what you could do to make life easier
And yes it is highly personalized but your personal experience is the best example for journalism
Nameless Name If you came here expecting a guide on "how to make work a relationship between an Introvert and an Extrovert" then you came to the wrong place.
Did you really expect a perfect formula for a relationship? As far as I know these videos give a general idea on what "could be" yet they have certain truth on them. So no, these are not "how to" guides, no one can tell you how to live your own relationships duh.
Usually, "How to" advice videos are based off of someone's experiences, rather than lots of research. Besides, you are never going to find a solution that works for everyone. Whether you are talking about things that help with more emotional aspects, such as dating advice, or even more physical needs, like eating, like some have allergies, or remedies for illness, not everyone reacts the same to all medicines. Unless a doctor gives you something, everything out there is advice, which is just a bunch of suggestions.
Thank you so much! These are very helpful suggestions.
Either, I'm with the wrong person or I just have to put some more patience in order to make things work. We've been together for 3 years and counting but she still doesn't get me even when I explain.
I could have her watch this but I don't think she'll get it or might make her mad.
So much work to do... but again, thank you so much. My comment has been answered.
How did this age ?

Extremely helpful advice! Thank you!!! I'm in between an Extrovert & Introvert....I usually stay to myself but don't mind a crowd on my own or with family or close friends. But I need someone that is an extrovert to go with me. So I understand an introvert and it explains so much about my love interest when it was shared with me. And from my long comment and watching this video, I obviously have some insecurities to get over and I am stuck in my head about things (typical Aquarius). Thanks again!
"To not have a meltdown"
This dude was so relatable i can't
But what about the extrovert what can the introvert do for the extrovert? Extroverts want to enjoy their significant other with their friends too
I'm an introvert girl and my best friend is pure extrovert. But now she's in some problems. I wish she would get all the happiness in her life. I will never leave her side.
Me and my friend isn't dating but we are different, I'm an introvert and she is an extrovert.the way we maintain our relationship is by her giving me space from time to time so I have time to charge.
though I'm an introvert (extroverted introvert) i LOVE RPG RP games, though I'm terrible with the average conversation it just helps my imagination run wild and it is a lot of fun.thiat is one of the only social situations that doesn't drain me
1:35 uwu this illustration is so cute
Introvert + extrovert = nuetral balance you’ll learned each other differences ❤️🙏
I am an introvert too and i love talking and datin extroverts. Ofc those who understand my introversion and give me space, but they can make me talk. Sometimes i really want to talk and just DONT find the courage to do so.
my brother is heavily extroverted while i am heavily introverted. and due to our great brotherhood relationship we are a very capable dynamic duo and i can't wait for the day he and i work the same job so i can see just how well he and i can work together.
I hope this channel reaches 1m subscribers soon. Definitely deserves it :D
Twins of Topaz thank you! ♥
That's adorable :3
Personally, I think it'd be hard for someone REALLY introverted to be in a lasting relationship with someone REALLY extroverted. I think they'd both need to sacrifice a lot, and the life styles wouldn't match. However, for people who aren't extreme, the relationship could really help them grow as individuals :)
I definitely sympathize with the comfortable silence part, I don’t want to feel stressed to have to talk to someone I like, like can we just lay in bed and play phone games
I'm an ambivert while my partner's an introvert. I'm glad that this video mentioned giving your partner space because my partner has notified me that he needs a break from daily communication as well. And that it burns him out along with all the work he needs to finish. Even though I know, it doesn't mean that he's not interested in me anymore cause he still cares about me. Yet, I'm an overthinker, and I tend to overthink upon his word choice and responses. Upon that my partner communicates and thinks very straightforwardly. Therefore, I result in several internal conflicts during the minimum times we talk. Are there any suggestions on how I could improve our relationship and provide him with the space he needs while not stressing over our relationship? Thank you!
how is it going ?.. i 'm experiencing the same situation ...
Oh my god I NEEDED this video, I finally found it. Thank you so much
I'm an extrovert, but my boyfriend told me that he likes that because he doesn't really push himself to hang out with people or go places, so he would like me to go places with him or encourage him for us to hang out with others together.
This is so cool! Stuff like this is why I love this channel!
PikaRyan GPC hey, thanks! :)
This video is spot on. Great work!
i found yall secret video #2 yall cant hide shit from me
Yeah, I like RPGs, but I'm not the best at them. I somehow alienating myself socially in EVERY BUILDING IN THE TOWN, in under an hour.
Aren't we all lonely most of the time cause of our introversion?
I don’t know why ppl get so surprised by this. As a more talkative type, I feel like I need someone to balance me out, so long as it’s healthy and we have similar relationships
I’m a introvert and hubby is extrovert. We’ve been married 34 years. Sometimes he does make me upset so its not bed of roses. He has a he shed and I have a she room. Lol!
1:22 "Luckily HE likes these things too" that put a smile on my face
Awesome yopic and thank you, I shared with my partner in the hopes it will move us in a more common direction than we've been doing already!
I’m an extrovert dating a introvert and this is was so reassuring to watch. Thank you for the lesson :)
So the key is to have your own time and space sometimes I guess. I broke up with my ex cuz she just can’t leave me a little space. And finally after I forced her to give me some space few times, she quit. She just can’t figure out how important it means to me. And I was too dumb to solve this problem properly.
Being an extremely introvert I have never been able to express my feelings.. I have buried all my feelings into my heart for 30 years of my life.. and I guess I have to do the same for another 30 years.. I guess when there is no space left in my for any feeling that I can bury or hide that will be the last day of my life..
Why do you bury your feelings? What are you scared to express? Say? What would happen if you were to express?
I'm an introvert but I do RPGs. Both playing and running one. I find they are small intimate groups where I can let all that creativeness out. I'm with friends who don't mind me making a fool of myself and even encourage it. It's for everyone it's true but some of my closest friends are my RPG friends.
Running the game or DMing as it's called in the hobby was scary as it requires me being centre of attention sometimes but my players seem to like it as I merely guide them and allow them to shine and have fun. And if they're having fun then I'm having fun.
I'm sure you and your husband are very happy together
I think it will be comfortable for introvert to date ambivert.
My boyfriend is an extravert and I was an introvert but he turned me into an extravert... I had to push my boundaries and comfort zone but it was honestly worth it
Kenxie B you might really just be an ambivert. It’s not really about wether you can talk to people or not. It’s more how you feel after engaging in social situations. You can tell after maybe a few days of socializing a lot, how do you feel? Are you tired, ready for more, or somewhere in between? That’s what tells you if you are an intolerant, extrovert, or ambivert.
thank you for this!!! i love your videos, i badly need an ambivertxintrovert version of this if possible 😭
This is so refreshing...there is hope for me yet!
I'm a shy introvert, and there's no way I'd get into a friendship or relationship with somebody, let alone an extrovert.
Something I needed to hear. Thanks for the vid. I hope it can help me with my relationship I have with my online boyfriend, because I have anxiety.
Heck, I wouldn’t mind there being a vid on how couples, with anxiety/ambivert/introvert can work things out. Because I’m always on the overthinking side of things and worry and all. I’m not too comfortable with his circle of friends. So, that be an interesting vid to see. :)
Emperor Palps i don't think that will help. It will make it worse for me.
I'm Asexual and Aromantic but I still like analyzing love.
I can't live anybody, so I like analyzing it and understanding how love and relationships works.
I NEED THIS SO MUCH, THANK YOU
Better title: Things Extroverts have to do to not make introverts uncomfortable.
My extrovert roommate seems to like constant dialogue. Constant discussion, which quickly changes to a different subject the second I try to pitch in my opinion. It’s exhausting.
why is this unlisted
Probs cos this guy is gay, no seriously, he said that his partner was a guy.
0:55 there you go.
They always post ahead of time before available regular way. Available now.
mhm
Unless youre a terrible overthinker and if you and your spouse are sitting in a comfortable silence and you start over thinking....."why is he not talking is he mad"
I recently broke up with my extroverted boyfriend, he did not respect me and he was "fixing" my behaviour. I don't like shallow socialisation, he meant well but he caused more damage than fixing. I prefer ambivert and introverts (not the weak and timid ones)
This was so heartwarming *~*
ah.. love is just damn crazy, weird, but fucking cute at the same time
I'm introvert but my bf is an extrovert. He kept asking me out..but we grew up together he knew I was a hermit..and it's hard for me to make friends, I have friends with his friends, close ones. But he wants to make more friends and makes me feel bad that I don't try to make new friends..it's hard for an introvert like me
I feel safe being in this relationship.
Say that extrovert said they needed space and then you give it to them but they leave you for someone new as they have their space.What do you do?
All good things are worth waiting for
Amazing video! Have you considered making a introvert and extrovert friend relationship?
We have actually! What would you like us to cover on it? You can email your request to Catherine@psych2go.net or your ideas or stories about the content. :)
This may be weird but my extrovert best friend just confessed to me in an all girls school- (We're both girls.) The girls in our class gasped but smiling and they also said "Oh my gosh- They are official! EEEE YASS-" I didn't get any of that but what do I do? I'm a introvert, I will be embarrased if I talk to her that she just confessed to me...
Its important to communicate .. let them know how you feel. Find a safe space
@@JamesOwade Okay. I have some good news and some bad news.
The bad news is we can't go in school because of the lockdown.
And the good news is we texted from our phones and told I like her. (I like her too okay. Don't hate me... ;-;.) I'm bisexual and she texted "I'M SO HAPPY!! I WISH I COULD SEE YOU RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I CAN'T TAKE THIS LOCKDOWN ANYMORE!!!"
Yea and we are both bisexual so please don't hate us ;-;
@@jacintoi.finojr5973 That's great. Nothing but love. No hate
I needed this video. Thank you.
:)
Daww, this was a cute vid, and definately includes some stuff I'm going to try in the future. Me and my partner are both ambiverts, but I'm a little more extroverted than her which makes a bit of friction in certain situations, so this was helpful.
As an introvert, I would want to date a girl who is an extrovert because it help to expose me to new things and she has to make it a little easy for me to get out of my comfort zone
I'm an introvert and my crush is an extrovert. ITS SO...HARD...TO JUST...talk to him 😖 like....I'm so in love I'm embarassed... ☺️🥰
Everytime i go in his circle he always calls on me to speak because he's never heard me say anything ever since we met unless i needed something from him. When an extrovert is talking to me I'm just like, "Oh...really? That's nice...☺️🤷" "COOL! ☺️" i don't understand there sense of humor most of the time or i just feel shoved in the corner because they're chatter boxes. But he....is....so...🥰🥰🥰☺️☺️☺️🤭🤭🤭🤭 And he's sooooo popular and cool. Like what if i says something stupid...why is being an introvert so hard?
I loved the fact that it was a gay couple because I am part of a gay couple as well! I feel represented and at home, specially bc where I live it's not that open-minded like America or Europe.
I loved the video, I really needed this♡
aaa sorry if my english is bad;;
I am an extrovert and my boyfriend is an introvert. I would lie, if i said it was easy. In top of that, he has been diagnosed with autism and i have Borderline personality disorder, so that make it even more difficult. He hates being out in the world and I hate being home to much. I dont know if this video was a help to me yet, but i hope so.
I’m an introvert I would want to date another introvert.
"pesonal" lol 3:31
I sometimes Don't agree with my best friend
thats normal
Suraj Nag thats normal. friedship isn't always about agreement but understanding
Hey guys,
I am a gay man who is an extreme introvert. I have decided to start doing a podcast about issues that get overlooked in gay culture, including introverts, who struggle to be understood. I am looking for gay men to chat with me and share experiences to help me make my podcast real. Also, if you want the space to share your story one on one with me, I would love to offer an interview on the show. If not, I still want to hear from you. It is time for us to make our own space. Brian
Such a lovely video
I have an introvert boyfriend. This is all true and works. What i like about having introvert bf is that he is honest and patient. So far, I am comfortable with the silence when we're together. Good thing is that I have my own interest and I really learned a lot from him.
Are you still together?
I'm an ambivert and my partner is an extrovert. We've been together for three years now
