  I can relate to that! It’s taken me practice to leave messages on answering machines (and I’ve succeeded in that), but yeah. I’m still not crazy about talking on the phone. There are times where I feel frustrated about being an introvert, but for the most part I’m fine with it.

    Thanks for your comment! Yes, the answering machine! Although, sometimes I like leaving a message of what I want rather than interacting with the real person. I think it is the way I process incoming vocal discussion.

    There were times in my life when I had to be on the phone all the time, business/work/helplines and I found my energy levels crashed so quickly that by the end of the day I felt I didn’t exist. Does that make sense? Of course, I couldn’t hide in a cave. I had four kids that needed me. But now, retired/disability, I can hide in my cave almost to my detriment. I don’t call anyone. I don’t even call my kids. The fibro has really affected my social life and I think the introvert nature is a part of it all. My social life is here on WordPress and Facebook. Looking at that right now made me feel sad. I must work on this!

    Yes, I am mostly happy, now that I am an introvert. Reading and writing are my life now. That would be horribly painful for an extrovert! Yet these are passion for me.
