Visit my forum.

Introversion Is Not A Disorder

If I'm not allowed to invite people to my forum via these forums, I'm sorry, but I read the rules and as I understood them this is ok.

Okay I'll check it out. Your other Forum was music specific enough that I had nothing to add. I this a more general forum?

I'm introverted in person but I've found that I'm quite extroverted on this forum. My post count speaks for itself. :mrgreen:

Yeah I like the feeling here, its very freeform - hip-hopically speaking, that is.

Yeah I'm an introvert but seem to be an extrovert when conversing through the means of typing. My verbal skills suck. Luv music too, but did someone say HipHop, I'm into a lot of genres of music except that. :roll:

I get the feeling that quite a few of us are more extroverted online that we are in real life. I know I am, too bad my post count at the moment doesn't reflect it.

:lol: You may be speaking for the both of us.

At rough estimate, 90% of my posts are random goofiness. :joker:

I'm an introvert that has been experimenting with extroversion, online. I have found, that it feels good to participate socially, in a manner that is more extroverted, than my norm. But, as time goes by, I'm starting to realize that I'm trying to be someone other than who I really am. I've noticed myself editing and re-thinking my responses/posts, to a point where I am comfortable, that they will be accepted. When I joined WP I was seeking answers, and perhaps a gf, eventually, but now I'm finding myself performing somewhat unnaturally, and I fear that, if I would ever find a gf, she would be expecting to meet "jawbrodt" rather than my true self. There's not much difference between the two, but it is enough to concern me. Also, its seems like I am forced to make a chioce, deciding where I want to fit on the WP popularity scale, and it feels unnatural to pretend like I'm a popular, outgoing person. That is not me, and I'm sure my depression isn't helping matters either. I don't know.... OK, that's enough for now.
