We live in such a different time now. It's crazy how so many of us interact on forums instead of IRL. Perhaps much more easy on forum for introverts, which is great because you introverts have so much to offer and certainly offer a unique outlook. It's interesting that you are both involved in careers that require a lot of social interaction.
I am certainly not an extrovert (my brother used to make fun of me in high school and say, "you look like someone that has a lot of friends, but I know you don't") but i do have a few..ok 1 very close friend and I can interact with acquaintances well when I'm in the mood. I like hanging out with people that don't follow the social norms and don't always say or act the way they are supposed to. I like them because They make life so much more interesting and I don't have to worry about being nice or polite. They usually are the ones to say what I am thinking.
Agreed. I have a best friend and 3-4 friends I've made over the years that for some reason have connected with me. We don't talk daily but it's always fun to catch up. I'm talking a nerd/geek gamer guy with a pony tail that works from home odd hours for an overseas company while he occasionally binges on speed and plays games in his computer room for days...and some other guys that are both totally stand up and inspirational while still being total degen. It's a good mix for me.

You never know Julie. We might bump into each other some day. In fact, I could even be the guy standing behind you in the library. Wearing the red cardinals cap and the blue overalls.
Really.
