Most of us are very familiar with being extroverted and introverted when it comes to a personality of people around us, but donβt you know that ambivert also exists?
An ambivert is a person who has the characteristics or traits of extrovert and introvert. To understand it well, we must understand extrovert and introvert first.
An extrovert is someone who is talkative, lively, approachable, friendly, and out-going. This person loves mingling and socializing with other people and make others happy. He also likes being at the center of attention, communicating by talking but prefer to talk a lot than listening. Besides, he gains energy from social interaction.
An introvert is the opposite of an extrovert. The introvert is unsociable, shy, quiet, and wanted to be alone. He prefers to accompany himself rather than being with other people. For introvert being around too many people can drain his energy and very self-aware.
Those qualities or traits above mentioned are the characteristics of an ambivert too.
An ambivert can perform tasks in a group or alone.
Β An ambivert can energize from socialization for hours but quickly drained and just wanted to leave the party.
An ambivert can be as friendly as introvert yet he can be quiet, reserved, and introspective.
