YouTube Review: Get To Know These 4 Types of Introvert Exist In This World

An introvert is often thought of as a quiet, reserved, and also thoughtful individual. They do not regularly seek out special attention or social engagements, as these can leave introverts feeling exhausted and drained. Introversion is a personality trait characterized by a focus on internal feelings rather than on external sources of stimulation.

In addition, introverts are actually the opposite of extroverts. Contradictory, extroverts are often described as the life of a party. Introverts and also extroverts are often viewed in terms of two extreme opposites, but the truth is that most people lie somewhere in the middle. For information purposes, these are 4 types of introverts exist in this world.

1) Social Introvert

A social introvert is someone who categorically prefers to spend time alone. They will go out of their way to ensure that they have the amount of time to themselves that they need. But if they do socialize, it will only be with a very close-knit group of friends. The reason a social introvert chooses to live this way is they truly enjoy their own company and feel emotionally drained if they spend too long in the presence of others. It’s not the same as shyness or anxiety. Social introversion is a preference, which is often confused for a sense of aloofness or indifference.

2) Thinking Introvert

Are you often deep in your thoughts, wondering about life and analyzing yourself? As a thinking introvert, you do not avert social situations and don’t mind the presence of other people. You are an introvert in the sense that you have a rich inner life, always pensive and introspective; especially after having read a book or watched a movie. You reflect on how you feel and delight in your make-believe world, losing yourself in your dreamy imagination.

3) Anxious Introvert

Anxious introverts may seek out solitude because they feel awkward or self-conscious around other people, because they’re not very confident in their own social skills. But, often, their anxiety doesn’t fade when they’re all alone. This kind of introversion is defined by a tendency to ruminate, to turn over and over in their minds the things that might or could or already have gone terribly wrong.

4) Restrained Introvert

The restrained introvert, also called the inhibited introvert, tends to be more reserved and can have their guards up around others until they get to know them. But rather than seeming shy or avoidant, they simply come off as thoughtful and grounded. This type of introvert is often steadfast and very rock-like in nature. The restrained-type introvert is often the quiet, dutiful person that others tend to rely on.
