Ask HN: Are you Extroverted or Introverted
I'm fairly introverted, and I assume that most of HN is the same. So are you..

- rblion 16y agoBoth. A healthy human is equally both. Extroverted enough to go out into the world and make something of yourself. Introverted enough to look within often and keep developing your potential.
- faramarz 16y agoThat's being an Ambivert. You and I both. Ambiversion is a term used to describe people who fall more or less directly in the middle and exhibit tendencies of both groups. An ambivert is normally comfortable with groups and enjoys social interaction, but also relishes time alone and away from the crowd.

- rblion 16y agowe are still hunter-gatherers physically and mentally, only the environment has changed. don't get too caught up on what I'm saying, listen to your intuition.
- noodle 16y agodo the things you describe really have anything to do with extroversion/introversion? i mean, the inability to go out into the world and make something of yourself is more along the lines of social anxiety disorder, not introversion.
