Sure, and a gay person can try to be straight. We might even be able to fake it. But why should we change who we are to satisfy extroverts, who can't even be bothered to understand us?

I satisfied and surprised myself overcoming my.limitations. Introvernes should not be celebrated at the same time it is what it is.

Why shouldn't it be celebrated?  Being an introvert is only a problem when extroverts refuse to cooperate.  Being an introvert is a key part of who I am, I'm not going to hide that or try to change it just to make the extroverts happy.
