here comes plugdrugs boasting about books he reads

[patrolled faggot]

hmmm

well I did lean over to see what a shrink was writing down once when he asked me "who are you?" and I had trouble answering to his satisfaction... I said, "I'm Lisa."

He wrote something down and I leaned over to read it and it said, "marked identity failure"

HOWEVER if identity to you is simply the need to be validated and placed socially by others then sure, I have "marked identity failure" and you are the identity queen.

I doubt this is any real insight into my psyche however but rather a projection of the need yours has to be accepted by society.

the need to be accepted by others is innate to human nature
if you are not consciously seeking it, you are certainly seeking it subconsciously in ways that are elusive even to yourself

I disagree.

I think it is a need of the extrovert... which I have surmised that you are

not the need of an anti-social introvert

you cannot also claim to have studied psychology yourself without this comment of yours being rather ironic

the word "extrovert" is starting to seem like some sort of all-encompassing label you use to describe the people you hate
The truth is, we all go back and forth between being introverts and extroverts in different social situations; think of a time when a younger relative (or any young child) has looked up to you and you had to assume the role of an 'extrovert' simply to be a role model for him/her.

When I perform I use a persona that I wouldn't really identify as being truly me, same with work where I adopt a professional persona.

An introvert does not mean that you cannot stand up in front of people and speak or lead... some can, some can't, same with extroverts, some can, some can't.

The main difference between an introvert and an extrovert is that an extrovert actually gets energy from being around people while that same situation is actually a drain on an introvert's energy who really prefers to be alone to recharge their batteries.

The internet is full of introverts as it is the ideal social ground for an introvert, they can turn it off and walk away at any time.

I do though tend to like looking after people because when I have to look after someone it tends to make me act as a better person than I normally would, even to myself, I will treat myself better when I have to look after someone else out of a need to have the energy to do so.

My ex-girlfriend's dad once told me "Mike, you're kind of an introvert aren't you?" to which I just smiled and nodded in agreement... Then one time when I was 6 years old in kindergarten, all jacked up on mountain dew and running around the class room, truly the life of the party, I remember the teacher describing me to my mom as being a total "extrovert"..
Either I'm some rare breed that can go back and forth to whatever suits me, or the whole method of classification is a bunch of bullshit
