I cannot cannot cannot hang out in big crowds for multiple hours at a time even if I had fun doing so.
The next day or so, I have to recharge my battery excessively by going into hermit mode and cleansing my energy. Otherwise, I’d be so irritated & low.
For introverts, vibing alone is self-care. That's what refuels them. Relaxes them. Heals them. Solitary walks. Netflix binge. Music marathons. Or staring blank at the ceiling at 2.34 am thinking about the meaning of their life. No matter what it is. For them, it's soul food.
Introverts love people they can just sit with. Who are okay with silence. No talking. No awkward feelings. Just sit. Doing nothing. Maybe a few words and then long pauses. Thinking & contemplating. Connected without words. Vibing with silence.
