My SO and I are both off the charts introverts - like we NEVER invite people over (how would you get them to leave?!). And yes we live in the mountains without the ability to see any of our neighbors houses (nor do we know their names), and we are 100% fine with that

oh wow! I joined this group to understand my SO. Mountains Vs beaches for us. I am so so bored of mountains and doesn't make any sense to me but I guess can relate to this

I take my BS comment back. I was quick because I score 98% introverted in the MB test but I love the sea shore and wide open desert and steppe like areas. However- I live in a mountainous desert state, lol. I also think that loving the desert is more an introverted thing - because it’s associated with being uninhabited and quiet
So, anyway, interesting article

Even without LinkedIn, I see a lot of people younger than me in much better roles. They started off with relevant jobs right out of college.

I’m constantly comparing myself to others who are younger than me.

My SO will put me on the spot sometimes (he is an extrovert) and say just talk to me (it will just be us two). He generally talks a lot and me so much.
