1. You would rather be alone than around people.

You find yourself getting pleasure from being to your self rather than going out and being around other humans, this may be the first sign that you’re an introvert.

2. You are not enthused to network with others.

When it gets down to it, and you are around others you do not get this gushing feeling of excitement through your veins to connect with the people around you, the whole time it could like you are faking it.

3. In class, you are not the first to volunteer when the teacher asks for them.

While having an open discussion in class and the teacher asks for volunteers to speak on it, or even read where she’d left off, you find any reason to make yourself camouflage with things around to not be as noticeable. You would really rather not speak in front of anyone at all.

4. You avoid talking to people. Definite sign of an introvert!

When you see people coming toward your way to have a conversation, you make it seem as if you are busy. You put your head in a book, in your phone, or even try to look asleep just to not be bothered. But even if those things does not work, you try to be as short with them as possible to skip the small talk and be left alone.

5. You like to people watch.

You love to observe everything around you, mainly because you do not like to converse with people so this takes the place of that; watching others and observe their actions is how you really get to know a person. Actions speaks louder than words right?

6. You’ve been told you’re a great listener.

You’ve every been told you’re a great listener? Could this maybe be a result of you not talking back? It makes it seem as if you’re listening just because you do not want to have a full blown out conversation with the other person, so you just sit and listen, hoping that is all when they are finished.

7. You aren’t thrilled to meet new people.

Meeting new people does not excite you because what? YOU ARE NOT A PEOPLE PERSON. Ha! You would much rather be to your self or around the people that know you best. Starting over is not your thing.

8. Do you have an inner voice?

Does it feel like you talk to yourself everyday? Does it feel like your inner monologue is constantly going? Sometimes you find yourself just talking and not even realize it (in the inside of course) this could also be a sign of the discussion at hand-being an introvert.

9. You may find crowds stressful.

This could go either way. You may not mind going out to a party, being around a crowd but at some point you’re ready to get back to the normal routine. Or you may be the one to not like crowds at all and not even thing to go out.

10. You find yourself zoning everyone out.

You may find yourself day dreaming, even in a middle of “small talk” and go right back into your zone, forgetting everyone around you. Others may find it rude, but you just don’t realize you’re in a daze and block whatever out around you.
