    blondie:

    I can be either depending on the circumstances.

    I didn't ask what you "can be, depending on the circumstances."

    Good lord, I've been doing that for a great part of my life, and especially as a JW.

    My question is so simple, and would only require a very plain Yes or No.

    Yes or No can serve a purpose in itself, both for ourselves and others.

    According to the Myers-Briggs personality tests, I am in the middle with one point over into introvert. So, I guess I'm an introvert. Except when I'm an extrovert.

    I'm a wannabe extrovert but my boundless self-obsession and consequent hypersensitivity kinda ruins it. Sad but true!

    LOL @ Robyn:

    I knows how ya feels.....I'm smack dab in the middle with the Myers-Briggs test and other personality test as well. Something I've always known about myself, I'm also a middle child older brother and sister and younger brother and sister. Maybe that form me to be the way I am.

    I sometimes seek, want and need to be with people and yet one gathering will over stimulate me and I want to retreat to the quiet of my home and familiar surroundings for long periods of time. I can entertain or keep myself busy for days on end. I've never understood how someone could be bored and I've never understood how some people absolutely need to have a constant companion.

    Craig and I jive quiet well, he has his space, I have mine and when we feel like it we meet in the middle if one of us isn't in the mood for company so be it we go on and do whatever, no pressure or feelings of rejection by either one of us. It's comfy and feels natural.

    Robdar and bikerchic explained it better. On personality tests I tend to fall right in the middle. So I use that to my advantage and hopefully to the advantage of others.
