"Definition: Contrary to what most people think, an introvert is not simply a person who is shy. In fact, being shy has little to do with being an introvert! Shyness has an element of apprehension, nervousness and anxiety, and while an introvert may also be shy, introversion itself is not shyness. Basically, an introvert is a person who is energized by being alone and whose energy is drained by being around other people."
I dont know, sometimes i like to be alone sometimes i dont
I think the question you want to make is if everyone here is shy, not introvert
Being an introvert is the new hipster thing. I personally couldn't care less if you diagnosed yourself as an introvert or whatever, but I do care about all those people who use it as an excuse to make others plan social events and whatever around them, and demand special treatment. Sorry, if you want friends, you have to make them. I'm not going to put up with someone who doesn't make the slightest effort in social situations because of their 'condition' or whatever the fuck they want to call it, and I don't think I'm alone.
And those pictures everyone seems to be spamming on Facebook about how to treat introverts ... please take your head out of your ass.
^I have no problem with this. It's just those people who want friends to work around them because they're actually just not bothered to do anything themselves and use 'being an introvert' as an excuse that pisses me off.
INTJ so I guess yeah...
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers-Briggs_Type_Indicator
For the people that don't know its a personality test which tells your personality based on your cognitive functions. For example INTJ(which is my personality) stands for Introverted Intuitive Thinking Judging.
Introverted-prefers spending time alone
Intuitive-can see the meaning beyond things and actions
Thinking- "I almost care"
Judging- prefers a fixed schedule l, doesn't like spontaneous things.

try the test if you guys are curious
@ihaveaname its not like that for every introvert(I hate this term but what can you do). Me for example if I don't wanna participate to a social event(which is very often) I'll just find an excuse or I'll say that I don't wanna go.
Frankly I don't give a fuck about social events, and I also don't give a fuck if they replan it just cuz I need to go. In fact if I don't wanna go I'll just tell em to stop wasting their time because I don't wanna participate.
Took one of those test and scored INTP.
And yes, I do like myself in solitary company, but it doesn't make me shy unless it is very large groups of people.

I usually get INTP, sometimes chaning into INFP but afaik its more or less usual for woman to change into F (feelings), with any other combinations too, so whatever.
I was really extrovert for a year though, idk if that can happen, but seems it did. I needed to be around people, going out to drink or just hang out with friends every day, we always had company in our dorm room, never being alone and it was fun, i enjoyed it. Nowdays im back to prefer being left alone.
Some days i really want to go out with friends, somedays (like today) i wanna stay home but they callin me to drink :'(

@Mary-rach, did you mean me? Well, i actually prefer being alone over being with my family, but i talk a looot more to my parents than before. But atm im in my rent apartment where i have my own room and flatmates barely bother me if i dont go to their room to talk instead of being at home, even though i dont have anything to do here (expect that my pc is here, so i cant doto at home xD)

Goddamit, the only ISTJ so far.
I think almost everyone has Thinking over Feeling too.
As Jon Lajoie states, 'No I don't have feelings coz feelings are gay'
Introverts are more likely than extroverts to use the internet for extended periods of time throughout their day, so there's an inherent contextual bias on your question. *snort* Also, those precious INTJs have their own forum.

HMM Apparently my personality is hipster oh well
^INTJ I remember reading that this type of ppl are the most possible to become serial killers... just sayin...
I was sure that sampson is an intj. The asshole know it all is typical to an intj. IRL I am the same.
^I think you put to much value on the test. Your personality is waaaaaaaay more complex and cannot be properly assesed in 72 questions. Also its psychology so it should be treated as a joke.
^ definetly true. Its absolutely impossible to try and fit a person into a fixed pattern, because even though people have similar personality traits in the end they're all different.
if I'm not mistaken even Jung said that the test is orientative. So it tell you some of your major personality traits but it can't possibly analyze you in depth because there would be 7 bilion possibilities.
But then again its a fun thing to do as a joke.
My problem with these test is they basicly wanna decide if lets say, you value feeling or thinking more.. by asking if you value feelings or thinking more... So to get real results you have to know yourself already, so it doesnt really say anything new. Its just an ez way to tell something about your personality by 4 letters, but it wont teach you anything new...
Still why not

well it is not completely wrong, I literally spent like a whole year trying to make sense of my now gf's texts(wasnt at the time) analyzing the shit out of them to the point where I was trying to put together logical arguments(can girls plz not use '...' in their texts I will fill in the fucking blanks on my own >< ) why exactly I like this girl and what the fuck is wrong with her to put up with me. Eventually we both got drunk together and my logical barrier went out the window :P
I should write a romance novel
All personality tests are usually bullshit because a person is way more complex than a test can measure, this one is better than others i think, but still is bullshit
btw can i flame everyone that its not INTP ?
@Sampson
INTJ ? pfff " almost " master race, but only filthy peasant.
these tests are usually just generalized and not specific but it does not make them wrong.
My friend got 1 % in Perceiving, does that mean that he is pratically half each or what ?
