Introverts like to keep to themselves. However, many of them are deep thinkers with a rich inner world. These folks are creative and imaginative, and they possess a strong sense of intuition and an eye for detail.

Such qualities can be channeled into powerful forms of self-expression, like writing, painting, music, or... memes!

So whether you're one of them or simply want to gain a better understanding of your quiet friend, here are some of the funniest memes shared by the Instagram account 'Introvert Safe Space.'

While introverts make up an estimated 25% to 40% of the population, there are still many misconceptions about this personality type.

For example, being an introvert does not automatically make you socially anxious or shy.

Introversion is generally viewed as a part of a continuum along with extroversion. Introversion indicates one end of the scale, while extroversion represents the other end.

The introversion-extroversion dimension is also one of the four areas identified by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI).

According to many personality theories, everyone has some degree of both introversion and extroversion, however, people often tend to lean one way or the other.

Extroverts gain energy from social interaction, while introverts expend energy in social situations.

Because of this, introverts choose their friends wisely. They would rather have a few close ones that they could invest their time and energy in, as opposed to a large network of acquaintances, according to Beth Buelow, author of The Introvert Entrepreneur: Amplify Your Strengths and Create Success on Your Own Terms.

Buelow, who also identifies as an introvert, thinks that because introverts typically feel less comfortable speaking than they do listening, they choose their words wisely.

"We only speak when we have something to say, so there is a higher chance that we will have an impact with our words," she explained.

In addition to their superior listening skills, introverts possess next-level observation skills, which Buelow considers a "superpower."

"We notice things others might not notice because they're talking and processing out loud," she said. Although it may look like they’re just sitting quietly during a meeting, introverts are soaking in the information that's being presented and thinking critically.

It’s one of my favorite things to do. Introverts, remember. And I watch true crime stuff.

The ever-skyrocketing crime rates outside of rural America would suggest to me that I'm much less likely to find myself mugged/assaulted/raped/murdered/kidnapped/trafficked/ankle deep in hobo-poop frolicking through my forest in the middle of the hecking night, than walking to my car in a Walmart parking lot in broad daylight. 🤷

She believes that introverts also make loving romantic partners. Since these folks crave personal space to reflect and refuel, they can sense when their partners need it, too.

"Because we have this need for our privacy, we give that to others as well," Buelow added. "We won't be super clingy or high maintenance in relationships."

Whether you're an introvert, extrovert, or ambivert, remember that, at the end of the day, one type isn't better than the other.

Each has its benefits and drawbacks depending on the situation, but by better understanding your personality, you can learn how to play to your strengths. And memes can be a good comforting start!

I don't worry about how to get out of small talk because I lack the social skills to even get into it in the first place.

Get it right: toothless is a disabled, indoctrinated co-dependent who is being carefully released back into the 'wild'... His untrusting, sensitive, over-emotional lady there is probably fairly judging the tail-crippling symbiote he's had for years haha
