7 Times You Thought You Were Being An Extrovert But Were Actually Being An Introvert

7 Times You Thought You Were Being An Extrovert But Were Actually Being An Introvert

The whole internet is writing about how everyone on the planet is either an introvert or an extrovert so we thought we better jump on the bandwagon too. For those of you that are unfamiliar with this phenomenon, the likes of Buzzfeed and Elite Daily are awash with posts about how introverts are class and deep and thoughtful and all that other crap.

When in actual surely everyone is a bit of both? And by continuously reinforcing this bullshit you're actually driving people further down the road of stereotype and encouraging people with no confidence in themselves to stay in their shell?

But lookit, the internet is boss so who are we to argue with it? Here are seven times you thought you were being really fun and cool but you were actually being really shy and profound.

1. When you bullied that smart kid in school

You thought you were being Mr/Mrs Popular but really you were just deeply insecure about your own intellectual failings.
