    Im also an introvert but I worked in retail for a long time and I managed to fake benign an extrovert. Now I don’t know what I am.

    If I’m around people I know I’m quite outgoing, else I don’t like people and want to be alone. Plus I get drained the more I converse with people.

      Sounds like you’re like me then: a personable introvert.

      I’m good at faking being a social butterfly when I have to as well and generally treat people kindly and considerately but yeah, it really IS draining to deal with people for long periods of time and I tend to avoid it when I can do so without stepping on anyone’s toes…
