A good article on the science and thoughts processes of Introverts vs Extroverts. Of course most of us on this are introverts (the extroverts have all but migrated to facebook/myspace, leaving us with this as our wonderful playground

if we use this article as a point of reference, I'm probably more of an introvert. which truth be told, I always thought myself to be. sure, I'm a pretty personable guy, but as much as I enjoy conversing and hanging out with groups of people, I enjoy smaller groups of close friends/time alone more immensely. I think you are also very much like me in that sense, although you often shine in social settings, you often long for more intellectual stimuli, which is usually lacking in large groups.

it's just a matter of learning to read yourself better, which is something I think I've become better at recently.

agreed. I think I fall somewhere towards introvert, but more int he middle. I think your more of the same. It shows in the fact we are both very intellectual, but like we aren't too far in that it's lopsided.

I do agree, I've always been better in smaller groups as well, I just get overwhelmed in larger groups or really turn my brain off to at least mesh with the larger group. Though you are much better at micro managing smaller groups in larger groups, that's how i believe you thrive.

I'm glad you feel you understand yourself better. It's refreshing to know and it shows lately that you can still be yourself, but more calm and in check. You also seem far more confident in a good way. You just seem more upbeat so that's good man.
