The Extrovert and what people don’t know

They are loud and in your face. The party is usually where they are. The noise is around them. People tease them plenty, and they, being sporty take it well. They laugh and laugh and are able to take a lot of good natured ribbing. You hardly or never see an extrovert cry. They have the sunniest smiles around them and always are the first to volunteer in any crisis. They tend to be over enthusiastic; and their ‘never say die attitude’ if not understood correctly, is usually misunderstood and often considered annoying.

However, here's what you don’t know about the other side of an extrovert... . . .

In reality they are terribly shy but in two meetings they become your best friend; so, you forget that when you meet them the first time they are actually at a loss of words.

Some people call them sassy, impish or brazen. But you must remember again the situation called for it. If nervous and frightened they need to throw the sass and brazen attitude to regain their confidence which is missing at that moment.

Hey and their incessant jabber is just a show to keep people at a distant. What do you really know about the extrovert? You might know everything about them; however, do you know them? Then seem extremely easy to read, but trust me they let you know only what they choose too. They can be highly mysterious about their true feelings and emotions.

An extrovert may be madly in love but they’ll never let you know for fear of rejection. An extrovert might be really hurt by something you said, but they’ll never let out a squeak, they’d just laugh it off and shake their head wiping the tears of laughter when you’ve actually broken their heart.

An extrovert will be a friend for life and they usually hate nasty scenes. You can be guaranteed that there won’t be a confrontation or an ugly scene with them.

But please don’t push the extrovert because they reach breaking points too. When they fly off the handle don’t agitate them further. Once they simmer down they come back feeling extremely silly and repentant about the entire scene. Even if it’s not their fault they seek forgiveness of the entire world.

In a nut shell sparkling and exuberant beings who love to hide behind uncertain and insecure masks.
