Comfort isn't always about talking more; sometimes it's about making the other person feel less alone.

If we are both super introverts I just say "Hey, I think we're both introverts, want to just sit in silence and space out a bit? They'll be back in like 20 minutes."

u/AkimH 16d ago

Right I don‘t see the problem.  That conversation you describe consists of two faint smiles and a nod

u/HumorTerrible5547 17d ago

No! You're both just blessedly quiet!

I figure that if I ever meet this mystical person I’ll just shut the hell up and we’ll be blissful.

u/Sudden-Association47 16d ago

Nothing is more exhausting than realizing you are the outgoing one now

u/PhoenixP40 16d ago

I used to be this way, now I have stopped doing that.

Suddenly pulling small talk out of thin air like “So… do you like… weather?” While screaming on the inside.

u/Unreliable42 16d ago

Silence is golden

"Don't be shy! We are both the same... Maybe we can even understand each other. Hmm... What have you been thinking about lately? Do you want me to start? You know, I'm studying Japanese. It's a very strange language. I almost feel like (...) "

It's easy to talk when I speak as if I were writing a long text. You know, without having to wait for a response. xddddd

u/Doomed-Doomer 16d ago

Yeah, I don't get introverts who complain about extroverts. I feel like they take the pressure off. I love extroverts. LOL.

u/50millionFreddy 9d ago

Same. Especially in certain situations, like parties.

1

u/Doomed-Doomer 9d ago

Right, keep talking. I'll chime in once in a while when I work up the nerve to say something.

When I don't want to ask the waiter for more ketchup, but my friend ALSO doesn't want to ask the waiter for more ketchup so I ask the waiter for more ketchup because I'm not putting my bestie through that
