The only way to get over introversion and insecurity is to constantly push your social comfort limit until it sticks.
Start random conversations with people you don't know, face backwards in an elevator etc.

I know I enjoy my peace. I like hanging out with friends and all but there is a time during the party where Im ready to GTFO. I burn out on all the BS small talk.

Someone who is actually an introvert rather than a wannabe-extrovert doesn't see introversion as a "problem" to get over.

why do you say "wanna be" and not just an extrovert?

Are we also factoring in social anxiety?

A "wannabe extrovert" would be someone who wants to do a lot of social activities and be more talkative but has anxiety or other difficulties that prevent it.

I dont know if I fully agree with that. I am able to be good in social situations, but I wish I was a bit better. I would never give up my alone time or my down time though. Its just that in some cases my level of interactivity does not satisfy the normal social constructs. That in turn prevents some good things from happening (like pussy).

Yeah, I was talking about the sort of person who doesn't actually like "alone time" very much, but seems "introverted" to other people because they have issues that prevent them from being social.
