@dandylion - "abide" probably wasn't the best word choice. I do think, just based on my experiences, that many extroverts have a difficult to impossible time fathoming that there are people who are not like them, and that it's okay.
Decades in the corporate world taught me how to "fake" it; it's not that I can't talk to people or that I don't enjoy interacting with people at all. I do, especially my longtime friends. But whereas an extrovert comes alive when he or she steps out of the house, I breathe a sigh of relief when I get home.
