I think I'm an omnivert, or ambivert. I have shy tendencies but at the same time I have a natural desire to be social and I do love chatting and bonding with people. I mean I'm not exactly the life and soul, and I'm not really loud or socially influential or anything like that. But I'm still not unsociable and I would much prefer having my lunch with my colleagues than having lunch on my own. Some people I'm quieter around than I am with others, but that might just be because I don't really click with them. And that's okay.

I don't chat much to strangers. I become socially anxious around strangers, although I'm still polite and everything if they speak to me. Sadly I'm not normally the sort people would just go up to and start chatting to, and I don't make friends very quickly. Like if I go on a vacation I don't seem to make friends. It does depress me though because I'm not that socially inept and I just often feel like I'm undesirable, friendship-wise.

I wish I was like my sister. She puts herself out there, gets people's phone numbers and constantly texts them, suggesting meet ups and stuff, and has no fear of rejection. She actually knows less than me about how friendships work and the patterns of social behaviour, yet still seems to make friends better than me.
 
I don't know what I am.

I work with the public and can mask my way through and can even seem pleasantly extroverted if I need to be.

I can also be the quietest person in the room without being introverted, per se. I am not shy. I just don't find the need to talk all the time.

I am the person that most people feel intimidated by because I tend to not use a lot of words. I rarely speak unless spoken to, yet when I do speak it's with some directness and authority.
 
I think I might be an Omnivert. I vacillate between extreme extroversion and super confidence (which took a long time to develop, by the way, performance art is what did it) and needing to be alone quite a lot. I can text or write here in my alone time, but I need to avoid all RL conversations. I love my time to myself and I need it like life's blood.
 
Kirk: "Spock, do you think Judge is an extrovert?
Spock: "Captain, perhaps it would be best to consult with Doctor McCoy."
Kirk: "I'm stunned, Spock."
Spock: (Says nothing but raises his eyebrow.)
Kirk: "Ok, so Bones, what do you think? Is he an extrovert?'
Dr. McCoy: "In a pig's eye!"
Kirk: "Right."
