    But introversion just means that talking decreases someone’s energy. Does it also mean that introverts don’t want to talk with others about topics that interest them? I thought, that this isn’t the case.

    PS: Yes I get it. It’s meant to be paradox/ absurd by contrasting the two contradictory statements with each other. :)

      That’s a bit of an oversimplification.

      As an introvert, I don’t like large group anything. They do nothing for me. The way I see it, I’m giving up meaningful interactions for inane small talk.

      Do I go to parties? Sometimes. Because I understand that extroverts get pissy if I don’t meet their needs. I just wish the extroverts in my life would give me the same consideration.
