An introvert may feel asocial when pressured to go to a party that doesn't interest her. But for her, the event does not promise meaningful interaction. In fact, she knows that the party will leave her feeling more alone and alienated.

Whatever kind of introvert you are, some people will find you 'too much' in some ways and 'not enough' in others.

Some findings reveal extroverts as more adept at reading nonverbal cues, and attribute this to the extrovert's greater interest and experience with social interactions. Another line of research using subliminal images of facial emotion found introverts to be more sensitive to the differences, and hypothesized that this may be why introverts regulate the amount of incoming social information.

If the extrovert watches and listens a bit more, the introvert's true mood will become more evident.

I am rarely bored alone; I am often bored in groups and crowds.

Introverts are collectors of thoughts, and solitude is where the collection is curated and rearranged to make sense of the present and future.

Your nature is not the problem. The problem is that you have become alienated from your nature -- from your power source.
