Aw, I love this!! You are so great at being an extrovert at events when you need to be! I'm an introverted extrovert, as they say. I love a crowd/a party with friends but I love quiet time at home too! 🫶🏻

And you're also so good at both being an extrovert at big events, but also an introvert with quiet small times.

I think this is the best article you have written. There is no problem being an introvert as long as it is not being motivate by fear of people. Fear should never control our life! God bless you.

*pops back in* My church has a little program this month for all longtime members to make a point of talking to/engaging 2-3 new ones every Sunday, starting today. Let's just say my (predominantly) introverted self was freaking out, so I'm doing everything I can to set myself up for success today. I've read your article twice now...I think I can do this.

Molly, you really have no idea how providential this article was. 💙

This was really, really good, Molly. I'm definitely sharing this with my introverted friends because I so often see them frustrated by their personality types. But those people are often so intentional with their words and friendships! We need them!

I'm so very glad you think so. And it means the world that you'd want to share this - yes, yes, we do!

This is a fun article!😊

I'm what people call an "extroverted introvert." I force myself to reach out to people because I know it is good for me and helpful for the other person if they're new. I've been described as a "social butterfly" but honestly, hanging around people is draining! 🤣

Thank you! And you know, I think I've become an extroverted introvert myself. Yes, it is XD
