Yay, Seska! One step closer!
Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Aww, yay, Seska and Girl! Registering Your Intention To Have!! It really does bring a little tear to the eye...
As you might have guessed: registering one's intention to have a civil partnership is the least romantic thing ever. One less thing to do now, though!
I thought you were more of an introvert.
According to my friend's psychologist mother, I am actually an introvert (!!!!). I said "Have you met me? Of course you have, because I'm an extrovert!" She laughed and said that the reason that I should be considered an introvert is because I recharge by being alone and that I prefer to solve problems/work through things by myself.
I've heard it's possible to be introverted and outgoing at the same time. While such a person likes talking to other people, they don't reveal much personal stuff about themselves.
I always thought that introvert and extrovert had nothing to do with shyness or gregariousness; they only refer to how a person gets energized. Introverts get energized by being alone (while being in groups can drain them), and extroverts get energy from being in groups.
Somewhere along the line introvert came to mean "hermit" and extrovert came to mean "24-hour party people," neither of which is correct.

That's the Myers-Briggs definition of an introvert. A friend of mine is the opposite -- he considers himself an introvert, but he organizes all the social gatherings of his circle.

Yep, the definitions have gotten skewed. I just thought it was a funny story.
I think I'm a catrovert - being with people drains my energy, and I recharge by spending time with cats.
