Trust me, I know what it means to be an introvert. I live deep in that particular forest! What I meant is that it is possible to reduce your level of introversion and actually enjoy being around people more and having it become less draining. In a way it's the reverse of what you said: becoming less introverted makes it easier to be more social. Yes, I've done it. No, I can't really explain to someone else what it was that I did.
