Personality traits....

I hope you all are doing well. As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, I have many things to share with you not exactly ideas, but topics and thoughts on which I would love to hear your opinions and perspectives. One of those topics is "personality traits" whether someone is an extrovert, introvert, or ambivert. These terms are very commonly used nowadays, and a single word often seems to describe a person’s overall personality, including their preferences, thinking style, and choices. So today, I want to talk about this and also share what I think about myself, and I would love to know what you think about yourselves.
If we talk about extroverts, they are people who enjoy gatherings, social interactions, and being around others. They like talking to people, feel comfortable expressing themselves, and actively participate in social situations. On the other hand, introverts are those who prefer their own company, avoid frequent social activities, and feel more comfortable in their own space. They usually don’t socialize much and like to keep their circle limited. Then we have ambiverts, who fall somewhere in between....they can be extroverted or introverted depending on the situation, mood, or environment.

Talking about myself, it has always been difficult for me to clearly identify my personality trait, and I feel like I am still figuring it out. If I look back at my early teens, I was clearly an extrovert. I enjoyed gatherings, spending time with my cousins, and going out. Since I lived in a joint family, socializing became a natural part of my life, and I genuinely enjoyed it. However, as I grew older and started observing things more deeply, especially being the eldest daughter, many experiences began to affect me, and I noticed a significant change in myself. Over time, I became more introverted. A few years ago, I felt completely disconnected from people I avoided gatherings, limited my interactions, and preferred staying at home, focusing on myself and trying to understand who I really was.
But if I look at the past one or two years, I don’t think I am purely an introvert or an extrovert. Sometimes, I prefer complete isolation and just want to spend time alone without talking to anyone. At other times, I feel bored and frustrated with being alone, and I want to socialize, meet people, and explore things. I have also noticed that my behavior depends a lot on the situation. When I am with my friends or cousins people of my age group I am confident, talkative, and comfortable, which makes me seem extroverted. However, in unfamiliar environments or with people I am not comfortable with, I become quiet, reserved, and find it difficult to communicate. I also don’t enjoy too much noise or crowded gatherings in such situations.
When I first learned about these personality types in my first-year psychology class, my friends considered me an extrovert, and at that time, they were probably right. But over time, as I observed myself more carefully, I realized that I don’t fully belong to just one category. My personality changes depending on my environment and emotional state. I am not completely extroverted, nor completely introverted I have traits of both. That is why I believe I am an ambivert.
Now I would love to hear from you what do you think you are: an introvert, an extrovert, or an ambivert?
I hope you enjoyed reading this :-)
