Many articles out there elaborating introvert's characteristics. The basic trait is significant need of solitude time. Surprisingly, more people declare themselves as introvert. My ex-office mates who can't stop talking at the office proudly state their declaration as introverts. Those articles also say that a single individual carries a mix of introversion and extraversion. No one is totally introvert or extrovert.
But I rarely find an article that highlights the limitation of introvert. That, by having a mixed personality trait, one of the characteristic might be drained which trigger the other trait to come out. Some may forget that despite of their crave of solitude, an introvert might get bored with excessive me-time. That despite of their strong passion for piece, they are longing for a little chaos.
In my case, as I'm growing adult, my reluctance of small talks is getting higher. The ignorance level is no longer tolerable. I hate to get stuck in a lift with my colleague or randomly meet them at the rest room and no acceptable cause not to say "what's up". Small talks can be so aggravating and awkward, but on the other hand I'm craving for deep conversation.
Small talks may waste my time and energy, but deep conversation can enrich my mind. The thing is it's getting harder to find a conversation partner that doesn't cost your comfort to develop a conversation. You can't pick random friends and ask them to share conversations over a cup of coffee.
Sometimes, only listening to them is relieving. One day I asked one of my girls out for dinner and talk. It was her who talked all the time telling about her problem. I was satisfied already without spilling any single fact about me. Reminds me that I miss other things like discussion and arguments.
