One of the best places for a shy person to meet people is in a coffee shop. If you are a reader, bring a book and read it there - that gives a guy something to ask you about. Same goes for sketching, writing, or any hobby you can take with you.

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

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.

Quiet is might. Solitude is strength. Introversion is power.

When an introvert is quiet, don't assume he is depressed, snobbish or socially deficient.

Let's clear one thing up: Introverts do not hate small talk because we dislike people. We hate small talk because we hate the barrier it creates between people.

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