@jakahamut Yas, i agree. I used to work and it was a good surrounding of people. But, my next step is, actually agreeing with some other peoples taste and try to adapt with them (not by FORCE), so yeah. :)

@Maya Indeed. But I am fine with getting a lot of friends, I'll end up not being around them anyway. XD

@Monch21 Well there is adapting, there is also finding a different job. Maybe you'll find some colleagues that like anime at your new job. There were quite a few anime fans at this inbound call centre I worked at. Not so many at all at other places I worked. And video game shops are probably a good place to find people with similar interests. Well you kind of do get forced into situations and conversations you wouldn't choose at work so it's good for that

^ | |____ -Because as an introvert, I get tired of people using the word interchangeably with "shy"- ^__^ @Monch21: Alright, all that aside, lets get to helping you become a more group-comfortable introvert. Personally, I have no problem being around larger groups or crowds, but I know what its like when its hard to get a word in. The best thing I can suggest is to pay attention to them, and ask the right questions as opposed to trying to talk over people to get a word in. If you aren't interested in a conversation, you can steer it in a different direction. Just not all at once. Do it little by little, and don't fight against the current by going against the dynamics of a conversation. Its less exhausting to talk to people that way. If you notice someone trying to get a word in, thats when you try to capture the group's attention, though do so in a way that puts the other person in the spotlight. As an introvert, you aren't broken. I'm sure you already know that. So being "Less introverted" isn't really a way to fix things. Its better to know simply know how to work with your own social chemistry. Introverts tend to do best when they're giving value to others, rather than competing for it. And those who return it tend to be the ones they keep in closer company.

@Chococrispi I think its pretty accurate. Well, guess it really helped, although the idea is pretty obvious ^^U. I think this is a bit too much (With the drawings and steps), although i appreciate the post, its kinda friendly and gives nostalgia (Like having an elementary class). Anyway...Glad to see some people understand a bit more when i post something, and don´t just tell me that they´re also introvert and how they feel being introvert or take the post out of context. xD
