Re: Question for fellow introverts

[soldatsasha]

If she was willing to understand then she'd be understanding about your needs rather than turning it back on you. I'm friends with a lot of hyper-extroverts and they don't expect me to keep up with their crazy-ass schedules.

I don't explain it, I guess. I use JADE a lot irl (don't Justify, Argue, Defend, or Explain) when I'm in these sorts of situations. I know I come across pretty cold and uncommunicative sometimes, but whatever. I'm not willing to go around in circles with people.

ime it's best not to give excuses for it. Like, in your post you mention having a headache? For me, if I mention something like that then... idk... it makes people just dismiss the whole thing as being whiny. Like "you don't really need time alone you just have a headache, so take some aspirin and deal" or whatever. So I don't include reasons, and I don't phrase it in a way they can really argue with.

I say something like "I'm going to go chill alone for a few hours" or "I'm going to take a break, I'll call you in a while" or something like that. Short and sweet with the bare minimum of info. And then if they press I just keep reiterating it by saying things like "I'm wore out, man" "Nah I need to chill a while" "I need some quiet time to recharge" and so on.
