I loved this one, "I'm an introvert. You are a wonderful person and I like you. But now please shush." My DH is definitely an extrovert. He really does "tend to think by talking," and it drives me nuts. I wonder if I shared this with him, if he would stop asking me if I'm okay when I'm all quiet and thinky.
Recently having realized that my father is quite thoroughly extroverted, it is now easier to understand my perpetual annoyance as an adolescent. :) Thanks for posting!

That article was worth it for the Sartre quote alone. So true, so true.

Great insights. I would like to add that illness makes an introvert retreat even more
Hi! I just found your blog...love your bio, as I can relate! I'm not an introvert, but I married one! Thanks for sharing.
My introvert husband wonders whether you really are the Rebellious Pastor's Wife or perhaps you are in fact The Pastor's Rebellious Wife.

Yes.
This is exactly why I would never, never survive if I did not force my children to nap. The talking just must stop.
Fantastic article thanks for sharing!
