Introverts, it’s your time to shine. All my life, i’ve been subjected to this statement “Why are you anti social?, choro iska tou mood kharab hai”.
I mean, my decision not to interact or invest my energy in certain situations was often misinterpreted as rude and portrayed as if I have a superiority complex.
I understand people do get intimidated when someone does not engage or it could be their insecurity thinking their conversations not “good enough” for me to participate but here’s the thing; it’s called being an introvert.
Yes, I do have those sudden bursts of energy where I just try to compensate by laughing and joking after disappearing from earth for a while but you’ll usually find me keeping to myself and lost in my own world because I honestly value my peace and need time to recharge.
I tend to focus on my inner thoughts and ideas more than my external energy maybe cause that works better in my favour and i’m honestly so sick of explaining myself to people that I chose this lifestyle because well, I can.
Don’t get me wrong, my confidence is often mistaken for boldness and overconfidence when I am publicly speaking, i’ve trained my mind for that but deep down inside, i’m still that timid person who is probably wondering when the floor would open up and swallow me.
Well, being an introvert is quite satisfying. Over the years, my willingness to party and get lit all night had reduced and I do look forward to snuggling up with a good book and my cat at home more than that.
“Is this called burhapa? Am I old..”
Nah, it’s called peace and i’m all for it!
Now that i’ve expressed myself enough, I’ll just be out here avoiding phone calls and people for a few days.
Hahahahaha!
Until next time
