There are some people who are very active, outgoing, and talkative, whereas, some feel they need to charge even after a short interaction with others. Many of us, though, embody both extroverted and introverted qualities that cause us to fall somewhere in between. You might be an extrovert but you may not throw yourself into giving a public speech in front of hundreds of people. So, there seems to be a spectrum. 👀 This quiz will reveal where you fall on the extroversion-introversion scale. Answer the questions honestly and let’s find out!

    2. How do you feel about public speeches?

    I’m quite good at giving public speeches tbh

    I’d do it, but only if I have to

    Good, as long as I’m not the one giving the speech

    It’s not in my DNA to give public speeches

    3. Let’s say you work in an office all day. You come home, and your close friends, whom you love very much, have just asked you to go out for a coffee to catch up. But you’re exhausted.

    I would feel more tired

    I’d feel more energized

    5. When you spend time alone on a weekend, do you feel a sense of peace and relief, or do you feel bored and lonely?

    I’d feel fantastic

    I’d feel peaceful

    I’d feel trapped and lonely

    All of those emotions

    6. How do you feel about attending social events three days in a row?

    Oh nOooOOoo

    I’d love it

    Depends on the week, depends on who I’m meeting, and depends on where we’re going…

    If they are not spontaneous events, then good—I guess

    7. You attend a dinner party your friend is hosting. You go to the kitchen to fix yourself a drink. Your friend’s co-worker starts the small-talk bit. Yet, the conversation is somewhat interesting. Would you stay and continue chatting, or would you try to get out of there ASAP?

    There is no such thing as interesting small talk

    Idk, maybe if it’s interesting enough, I could stay

    I’d stay—I guess

    I’d stay, of course, and I’d do it gladly if it’s really interesting

    9. Do you tend to get lost in your own thoughts when you’re around people?

    Yes, unfortunately

    Yes, but I try to hide it

    No, I can focus on people as long as they’re saying something interesting

    Never happens to me

    10. Would you feel awkward talking about something that you’re not that knowledgeable about?

    No, I’d view it as a learning experience and enjoy it

    Yes, especially if they ask me to contribute

    13. Do you prefer meeting people one-on-one or in bigger friend groups?

    One-on-one is the way to go

    One-on-one, but only if we have something private to discuss

    I prefer seeing everyone because I don’t have time to meet everyone one-on-one

    Crowded friend group meetings are always much more fun

    14. Be honest. 👀 How often do you interrupt people?

    I do it often ngl

    I do it often, but only because I’m worried I’m going to forget what I want to say

    17. How do you feel about a weekend spent alone working on your hobbies and interests?

    That is the ultimate dream

    I would love that for a day, but then I’d need to get out of the house and see some people

    A couple of hours would be enough—I don’t need the whole weekend

    I’d rather be outside with people

    18. Do you think you’re a good listener?

    Yes, people tell me so

    Kind of

    I guess, but I sometimes interrupt people

    I’m not the greatest, I have to improve my listening skills

    19. How do you feel about surprise birthday parties?

    I like attending them, but only if it’s not my own birthday

    I enjoy them

    It gets awkward when people sing ‘Happy Birthday’ to you

    It’s awesome. Why wouldn’t I like them?

    20. Do you feel like you can express yourself clearly when you’re having a conflict with someone?

    If it is face-to-face, then I am terrible at expressing myself

    I am surprisingly good

    I can express myself, but I seem to always forget to say something

    Alone

    Doesn’t matter

    Depends on what needs to be done

    Group projects are more fun
