How to be Friends with an Extrovert

I keep seeing that list about being friends with an introvert. Here are some tips for being friends with the other side of the spectrum.

(Unlike the introvert list, this isn’t a bunch of instructions on how to treat us so we don’t get uncomfortable. This is more of an “FYI” scenario.)

1) We don’t like silence.

Silence - “awkward” or not - feels wrong to an extrovert. Either turn the radio on in the car or prepare for a barrage of conversation. We’re talkers.

2) We talk to strangers.

If the person in front of us in line brings up how they aren’t sure if you can substitute a salad here, expect us to jump in and tell them. We talk to people walking their dogs and the guy with the shirt from the college we went to. You do not have to join these conversations! But we will have them.

3) We’re loud.

Sometimes we don’t realize how loud our voices have gotten. This is a side effect of theater training, which almost all of us have. Please try to put it nicely when you tell us we’re a few decibels too high.

4) We want to try new things.

If we go to the gym and someone says a new hot yoga class is starting in ten minutes and it’s free and would we like to go, yes, yes we would. New ride at local amusement park? GET SOME. Meet person from Tumblr? WHEN AND WHERE OMG NEW FRIENDS.

5) We’re storytellers.

A lot of the time, after someone tells a story, an extrovert will jump in with “oh, that reminds me of this one time…” It’s not that we didn’t listen to your story or that we don’t care. We’re just relating to you in our favorite form of communication: talking.

6) Some of us don’t like talking on the phone either.

I don’t think this has much to do with introverted versus extroverted. Just because someone is an extrovert doesn’t mean they’re free at any time to talk to someone for 45 minutes on the phone. Gchat, on the other hand, is a form of communication we are always open to.

holy crap!

is it possible that i’m an extrovert??!

i have seen both lists, and i think i am both intro end extrovert. thats how twisted i am. or these lists are total bull.

    Theater training, talking to strangers, constant storytelling and Gchat? Someone out there knows my life.

    Pretty much, though I would say I’m pretty well balanced between being an introvert and being an extrovert.
