So agree. Partying all the time and being with other people for the sake of being with other people is so empty.

Like others are saying, it's very tiring. And what do you get out of it? At least with fandoms, you can practice writing, art, crafts, whatever you enjoy, and that lasts. As well as meaningful conversation with others who enjoy the same.

[(Anonymous)]

for extroverts, it's not tiring. that's how they get their energy: by feeding off the energy of other people. maybe an introvert wouldn't get anything out of it, but for extroverts they get happiness and a sense of belonging. they can also have those kinds of meaningful conversations.

and extroverts often aren't "being with other people for the sake of being with other people". they're usually doing it because they enjoy it.

[darth_eldritch]

Yes, but that is what it feels like to be pressured into being an extrovert. That kind of lifestyle is good for extorverts, but sometimes some of them (not saying that all of them are- I have a very good friend who is very extroverted and she completely understands) they need to lay off pressuring intorverts into being like them.

[(Anonymous)]

sorry if i misunderstood. i read the second half of your comment as still referring to extroverts. when you asked "what do you get out of it?" i thought you mean what do extroverts get out of it, not introverts.

[darth_eldritch]

That's cool :) I could have clarified that more, tbh.

[(Anonymous)]

it's alright! sorry for jumping to conclusions. internet discussions can get really confusing sometimes.

[darth_eldritch]

It sure can! No need to apologize :) We're on the same page here.

[(Anonymous)]

So they're vampires then?

[diet_poison]

Ok, I actually find this comment somewhat offensive.

I don't go around shitting on introverts who want to spend more time alone (I get that some extroverts do but not all of us ffs). But really? Implying that my preferred lifestyle is "empty" is not appreciated. Being with people for the sake of doing so is incredibly fulfilling to me.

And as has been pointed out, but I'd like to reiterate: extroverts do not find social interactions tiring in the same way. I mean if I were around people 24/7 with no break I'd get sick of them, but I actually get way more run down when I have to be alone for a long time. I receive energy from being with people, not the other way around.

[darth_eldritch]

If I could have edited it, as I already said previously that I should have clarified my statement, I would have said:

So agree. Partying all the time and being with other people for the sake of being with other people is so empty to me.

The same with being around people all the time because I have been in situations like that- yes being aroud people 24/7, and viewed as wrong for not thriving in that sort of atmosphere. When you are in the military or in certain situations, it's not that unusual.

COMPLETELY OFF-TOPIC

[tyger66]

your icon looks like an old-school Altmer from Morrowind using one of the "better heads" mods. Is that what it is, or is it something different and I am just being strange?

Re: COMPLETELY OFF-TOPIC

[darth_eldritch]

You're not being strange at all :)

That's a better Almalexia mod. which is almost the same thing- Almalexia being Chimer, who were cousins to the Altmer.

Here's an icon of my Altmer character.

THE MEMORIES

[tyger66]

As soon as you said it I smacked myself for not recognizing that face tattoo! I also used that mod, so that just makes it even more annoying that I didn't remember. I love Morrowind; definitely in my top 5 games, and I must have wasted entire weeks at a time playing it before I got a computer that could handle Oblivion. (Though even after that, I still played Morrowind more.) I could wax poetic for hours about the great city of Vivec, or the "red-lantern district" in Suran. Enough, though! I must sleep now.

Also did you see the person in General Comments asking about Morrowind mods, btw? I left a long, rambly answer.

Re: THE MEMORIES

[darth_eldritch]

Morrowind is about all of my fandom activities now. I love that game so much.

There is so much I can say about it, I'd take forever!

Have a good night!

Although I didn't have as much to rec, I left a comment for a good site that is finding and archiving a lot of missing Morrowind mods: Morrowind Modding History.

[diet_poison]

I've actually been asked by one of my introverted friends, when I said that I get lonely because I don't like to spend long chunks of time alone, "Do you really need people around you like, 24/7??" in a way that was really judgey. It kind of goes both ways.

Anyway, I get that that's not what you meant, but it really wasn't clear at first. Thanks for clarifying.

[darth_eldritch]

That's not cool. I would never say that to any of my friends who are outgoing and want to be around some people. I'm sorry you had to listen to that.

I think some people here, myself included are reacting to the more mindless, "let's get drunk because we have nothing better to do" mentality sometimes seen in dorms or the military, and weren't thinking of the outgoing people who do have a good life with company of others and don't judge others. It does go both ways.
