If I have something that I think is worth saying out loud, I will say it. Thank you. Otherwise, I’ll keep quiet.

I'm an INFJ joe amid extroverts, sensors, thinkers, and perceivers, and still trying to come to terms with it on a daily basis.
Haha! I won’t even try to guess the number of times I’ve felt that way. Too often! Sometimes people talk about such truly mindless things that I have no idea how to contribute to the conversation! I’d just prefer to walk away and be by myself than to hear it.

Yeah, I do a lot of smiling and nodding, then look for the food table, drink table, restroom, or exit.

I can completely relate to this – I was constantly told to speak up more at school, and even now I keep pretty quiet in situations with people I don’t particularly want to talk to. I hate competing for air time in group conversations, it’s just not worth the effort!

Yes, it does take effort doesn’t it. 🙂

Boy can I relate! I think it might be getting better, however – I was at a conference recently, and we were all broken into little discussion tables. I spent maybe 1/10 of the time talking, because there were 6 of us at the table. When it came time for each table to summarize our discussion, I was elected, because the others said “I was a good listener.” Hooray! I think this means word is getting out about the benefits of being an introvert.
