NATURE Tigers are solitary creatures that value personal space, while lions are social and clingy, often encroaching onto the tiger's very space.

Every introvert has a friend who isn't one.

That’s clearly not true. I’m an introvert and I have no friends.

I’d be your friend, but I’m also an introvert.

I’m also an introvert but I’ll pretend to be your extrovert friend. But sadly I can only do it behind closed doors.

Hmm, that was a new word for me. I like saying introverted extrovert because it sounds slick. Ambivert will sound smart.

Me, an introvert, and my friend, also an introvert, are like this with each other. We rarely talk but we always think about each other. 🥲

I have the DLC bundle of mental illness and I’m too much for people.

u/Bazzness Jul 12 '26

Nat bud you’ve got it the wrong way around. People are too less for you!

Not gonna lie, that made me chuckle a little.

u/Bazzness Jul 12 '26

Yeah, I used to feel like I was a second late with every conversation and someone would always jump in before I said my bit. Now people ask my opinion so I pause hoping they answer for me or someone else jumps in

Same id rather be on my own but when I need to be out with people I'm the extrovert. It's taking me longer to recharge

Guys don’t worry I’m a 60% extrovert, should be enough to adopt you all as friends

u/Keldrabitches Jul 11 '26

Prolly same. At least 55 percent
