For me, it's "There are so many nice places out there... but it's expensive to go there and I'd like to go with a friend I don't have but I don't want friends so I'll just stay home and wistfully stare at internet pictures of the Burj Khalifa and the Leaning Tower of Pisa and people riding the London Eye then go take some pictures of grass"
I socialize just enough to drain my batteries, go rest, then promptly get back to my conversation that will last another 2 hours. I would say I'm and ambivert as well.
@@osmanthuswine4928 oh yeah, I forgot about that . . . Guess who's going to be doing about a quarters worth of school work in only 3 to 7 days. This guy!
im a social introvert, and the whole "gotta recharge my batteries" is 100% true for me. only problem is that other people dont understand, so 5:28 is extremely relatable for me
For me it was more like "the tree people in class that I could talk to without having to brace myself for the stupidity that would come back as an answer."

Me: Goes out of my way to sit alone Some nice people: Sit next to me Me: Oh no! What do I do now? The nice people: Hi! You looked lonely, so we just wanted to make sure you are ok Me: Yeah, I'm good, thanks The nice people: Sit there for the only 10 minutes I get alone at school and try to include me in their conversation while I try hopelessly to read my Star Wars book I appreciate these people wanted to help and make sure I'm ok but people need to learn, just because someone is alone doesn't mean they are lonely, and just because they don't say the want to be alone doesn't mean they want you to be there, especially when they look like the are not happy you are there, they are probably not happy you are there
The best part about quarantine is staying home all the time, playing games a lot, too much RU-vid that I run out of things to watch, wishing you could get away from your family who's driving you crazy, and finishing and starting projects that will ultimately never be finished...
Mobslayer31 well yea I forgot to cover that too(and eating) and during the quarantine I did draw Trevor Phillips(from gta 5),mr.house(fallout new Vegas which I hope on making a video about)and Ganondorf(dwilight princess version)
I am an introvert and it really helped me to get comfort by forcing myself to socialise. Basically I decided to work in a store, at the electronics section. One of the worst sections where people ask a ton of questions because they don't know anything about electronics. I thought it'd be hell to do so, however it feels really nice to help people. It really made me more comfortable to talk to people. And guess what? I finally dare to contact my bank via phone! If you have had the struggles of being an introvert, you know how much of a pain it is to call your bank or calling in general. Working in a store really helped me a ton.
I'm an Introvert and I've never found solitude as sad. I enjoy solitude, and I hate when someone breaks it. If people think that being an introvert involves being cronically sad, they are sorely mistaken.
6:30 this, this is how it is everyone else so sad as i've been thriving online, i'm sorry everyone else doesn't get to feel exited over always being inside
4:43 THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME AT SCHOOL! I’m an introvert and whenever I’m alone I feel happy but then a teacher walks by and says “hey, are you sad and lonely?” And I’m like “no! I’m not. I’m just happy being alone” and they say “why don’t you just socialize with others? Not only the teachers say it but my parents do the same
@@leah8894 samee. i love just staring at lamps or lights in the room as they remind me of the lights section in ikea, which is a beautiful place and people think im alone and stare at me
I can relate. I was like this in primary school. But now im pretty extro in "safe waters". Although I still enjoy being alone and I dont really go to partys.
Why an introvert myself i find pissed whenever another introvert rejects to speak with me? Not only i feel pissed but also like crap every time that happends Introverts... Please whenever someone speak with u, even if u don't like people or socialize witch... I can relate, just reply even if its a short answer, it will help you open more and don't be scared of ^^
Daughter Speaking: When I'm chatting with 1 person, everything's at ease, that's the right amount of people. I can be my "goofy" self. But, when it's 2 or more, it can either go 2 ways.1, I just stand there panicking inside my head, internally screaming, whilst being ignored by everyone in the group. Or 2, I just silently walk away without being noticed. It works out either way, but I'd prefer it to never have that situation.
Teacher: For this assignment you will need to work in groups. Me: Ok Teacher: who people who aren't your friends! Me and the bois: I never met this man in my life.
4:00 swing chip in a (questionable) state is the reality we all need to accept, don’t over socialize, or you will end up half a bottle into vodka and blacked out, but not in a good way.
The thing is that there's a whole bunch of types of introverts. In my case, I can spend the whole day in my room, doing homework, playing games, playing the guitar, you name it. But if a friend invites me to an activity, even more so with people I like, I'm all for it. A couple years ago, I didn't think it was possible for me to handle a crowded concert, and a few months later, I went to a music festival of 5 days with four friends and we had a blast! Still... Can't tell you how much I relate to this video it's insane
im an introvert, and my fam knows this, but still they always invite me out to do things sometimes, and almost always (90%) of the time, say yes if i ask, can i come?
@@indrajitprayogo14 just because someone sounds like a he or she doesn't mean they are! also people can be they please don't do "They" like its not real :)
Friend: "Hey, wanna play some games together?" Me: "For sure! Was about to ask you the same thing!" Friend: "Sweet! Some other people I know wanted to join in to!" Me: "Ohhh... Yea... I just remembered that... thing... I had to do... Now... Sorry, looks like we're gonna have to try again tomorrow!" My mind: Dammit, I really wanted to play some games right now ;-;
A friend of mine once forgot I was on a Discord call because he brought in _his_ friend and I clammed up. On the upside I made the other friend jump and curse out loud when I spoke up to say I was leaving 'cause they didn't know I was there, despite being told so, lol.
Let us enjoy these days of isolation while we can, And to the extroverts.. well.. uhm.. idk.. you're all doomed to be alone while this lockdown is still a thing I guess *casually sips hot morning coffee*
Quarantine: no big deal, I’m an introvert 1 year of quarantine later: I’m a little bit scared of the future change to presencial classes, I’m afraid that maybe now I’m way too comfortable with the online clases and that maybe I forgot how to _socialize like a freaking normal human being_ but at same time *I crave human **_real_** human interaction*
Don't worry about it. If you don't socialize, You can't accidentally make fake friends that stab you in the back. You also can't have a girlfriend/boyfriend that could leave you and break your heart. And, even better, You'll never have a kid to potentially be a disappointment to.
Just about sums it up. When I do socialise it's often because I have run out of conversation ideas to talk to myself so i need to talk to other people to bounce my ideas off of. and the bouncing of ideas part makes me have better conversations with myself after i stop socialising.
Teacher: *gives task* Me: seems easy enough. Good thing the deadline is next week Teacher: do it with your friends. It's a group project Me: *INTERNAL SCREAMS OF THE DAMNED*
True, but because I almost have no friends, which oddly doesn’t bother me, I just get thrown into random groups with weird kids. There’s always that one kid who doesn’t even have an Email. It’s so difficult. They don’t even reply to messages two days after.
That's a mood. It also makes the beginning of the video where they have like 12 messages all the more depressing. Only time my phone vibrates is when Google's informing me about updates. Lol
Hey Chip, I have a question for you: When you are outside with people, do you... tend to change your personality? With that I mean, do you try to appeal to everyone you meet? When talking to someone, even if they may be a close friend, do you feel as if something is slightly off? That's how I have felt for most of my life and it has been the main reason I have avoided socializing. Please, if you can relate to what I am saying, know this: Open up. Show the world yourself as you really are. Everything else doesn't matter. If you live your life putting on a mask you will get exhausted quickly and might suffer more severe problems later on in life. Yes, not everyone will like your true self, but that is normal. Appealing to everyone simply isn't possible, I've tried it at my own expense. You'll make some enemies along the way, but you'll also find that the people that do stick with you, are the friends you really want by your side. True friends. You can be yourself with these people and you'll understand what it means to socialize. No one wants to be alone. That's all I had to say. Great video Chip, looking forward to more content in the future.
I don't agree with "no one wants to be alone" but I feel for everything else. I think that no really knows me, I suppose I hide a bit of myself and don't share everything that makes me. So people only see a percentage of me, perhaps the part of me I only want people to see or what I think they want to see or only care about. I don't think there's one person that knows knows me. I have a few that know me, but not beneath that. There are many things I could go on about and mention with this
I just act like a couple billion people depending on my social group it is funny when people actually think it's someone new when, surprise, it's just me.
2:47 the first issue, i when they expect you to work in a group. sure, SOMETIMES you can choose not to, but then people will be disappointed in you. the second issue, is not friends. at least the friends are tolerable to work with, because they are friends. but not friends... that's a whole new level of bad
