What, do I have to explain?

You can let everyone know how you are extroverted, or you can emo your way out of this thread.

Me? I'm extra-verted :)

Edit: Someone told me to add a "pole" so I did :p

I'd tell you that I'm introverted, but I prefer to keep to myself :eek:.

Oh and I think the addition of a "pole" might be in the thread's best interest.

Introverted (Hermit-like), but I can handle myself in almost any social environment.

I prefer small groups of people and friends over large, loud parties though.

**EDIT**
I tend to be very open with people I trust though.
I tend to be a lot more reserved with people I don't know or don't trust.

ISTJ baby! All my MBTI scores are hard-line definitive...like 35, 0, 36, 0, 33, 0, etc...no need to try to figure which trait is more dominant...it's as plain as can be...

I'm fairly extroverted. I make friends easily and find it easy and enjoyable to talk to people.

That doesn't necessarily make you extroverted. I make friends easily too, and most people generally respect me a lot, but by nature I enjoy a lot of time by myself or with only a few other people instead of a large group.

Introverted doesn't mean insecure

**EDIT**

When I am with a large group of people, unless they are my close knit friends, I tend to talk to them and small talk but then go off by myself. I can even keep a conversation going for a long period of time depending on what they talk about (hope to G-d not sports because I am an ignoramous with sports talk), but usually after a while I tend to enjoy the time with only a few people instead. I find it more engaging to give one or two people your attention than constantly shifting attention to a whole group of people (that tends to be draining/taxing on me). I am usually the guy on the side playing the guitar or talking to a few close friends, but again, I have no problem talking to a group of people and joking around.

I am usually an extrovert.
I can talk with just about anyone and that makes me happy... however, i don't talk too long or to the point that the person is wishing to get away. :)

Introverted, but also bad with a mouse - voted for Extroverted. :eek:
I usually prefer to be away from people. College has been quite unpleasant as everything is made for social people. Classes, the dining halls, the library, and the housing - there's nowhere to go to get away from everyone. That changes next semester though - I'm getting an off campus apartment by myself. The funny part, it'll cost me about $100/month less than living in an on-campus 2 bedroom apartment, shared by 4 people. This college gets about 3x the market value for a 2 bedroom apartment per month.
4 people in a 2BR apartment, paying about $550/month = $2200. 2BR apartment off campus: ~$700/month.

I can act extroverted, but I'm generally not --> voted for the Socially capable but prefer not to be option because it was pretty much the closest fit.

For me it depends on the crowd.
If I'm at a death metal show, I talk to people.
If I'm at a lan, I talk to people.
If I'm at a party and people are drinking, I talk to people.
If I'm at a party and drinking too much, I talk to objects.
If I'm in a social gathering of some sort where drinking isn't taking place, and the subject is not beer, metal or computers, I'm thinking I need to GTFO of there ASAP and generally, I don't talk to anyone.

Most definitely introverted. I'm far from socially inept though, and it's unfortunate that most people associate introversion with it.

I assume you're including money you pay for a meal plan in that or something, because $700 is not $100 less than $550.

And to answer the OP: most of the time, I'm very introverted. Not always, but most of the time.
