I suspect most folks here have looked into the significant differences between Introverts and Extroverts not only socially but also physiologically in our brains, and have considered the impact that no doubt they will have. I would like to pose a question. What is your preference or thoughts on dating another Introvert or Extrovert? Pros cons? Thank you in advance.

I am a Shameless introvert who can play an extrovert for a few hours at a time. I have friends who are extroverts who I really enjoy spending time with. But, there's a limit. In terms of intimacy, I would prefer someone who has a tendency toward introversion, but who does have her moments at playing the extrovert. Extroverts wear their passions on their sleeves, and sometimes that's inspiring. I'm not great at small talk, but sometimes, I like to play that social game. Dancer is a beautiful thing, and extroverts are really good at it. I think there's a really great place in the social world for both ends of the spectrum. Sometimes, because of my introversion, I feel overlooked. After I think about it for a while, I usually come to the conclusion that's just my personal bias, or insecurity, or whatever. I think it was Friedrich Nietzsche who said that "Mankind is the only animal who reflects upon hitself, and then reflects upon the reflection." Is a Shameless introvert, I can admit that I've spent a nominal amount of time attempting to practice good self observation. That's something that extroverts are not so good at; sinc I think that practice helps one develop better empathy, t's important to me.

Extroverts are fine as long as they understand how introverts work. Compromise, yep I'll go to the party as long as I know when we are leaving. They have to occasionally stay home quietly. An extrovert can help you manage occasions and the trials of travel.It can work if everybody cooperates

I think my marriage partially failed due to the fact I am an introvert and she was an extrovert. Here’s why: I am an introvert working in the corporate world. Around lots of people all day long. My ex worked in the house and some days never talked to anyone. When I came home I wanted quiet and she wanted to talk.
As to the answer to your question it depends. As long as the person doesn’t try to force me into situations I don’t want to be in and is good to me I don’t think it matters

My ideal is probably another introvert, or maybe better would be an extrovert who doesn't have the problem of talking too much (is that an oxymoron?).

I don't mind talking if there is interesting content to that which is being talked about. I also think you could meet an introvert that talks to much which I guess could be considered an oxymoron as well? I really don't think it boils down to the amount of words but more so the subject matter and interest in topic.

@TerminalSunshine I agree. I enjoy a good conversation. I just need pauses so I can insert my one- or two-line contributions here and there.. 🙂

@thislife Is that a nice way of telling me I talk to much...awkward pause in conversation. :>😉

@TerminalSunshine Lol. Not at all Sunshine

My BFF is an outlandish extrovert but she's a riot to be with, she's also my strength when I'm out.

I'm a little introvertish at times... no need to be loud or the center of attraction. I'm much more comfortable with the same in a partner where we focus on each other and not try to get the world to acknowledge our existence.
