my god…who ARE you!

I agree the book, Party of One, is an excellent read.

I think we introverts are kind of like cockroaches. So long as a few basic requirements are met we can live almost anywhere. I think it’s the extros who are going to be a bit more finicky.

I’ve lived happily in both the city and the country.

The country offers easy access to the outdoors with plentiful quiet spots. People are friendlier, more accepting, more trusting, more introverted. There’s not many options when it comes to obtaining resources. Have to order anything you can’t find at the nearest Wal-Mart over the internet.

The city on the other hand offers anonymity within the crowd. You can live with near certainty that no one will bother you without good reason. It offers access to lots of niche businesses and services to serve unorthodox needs. It’s also more possible to find niche groups of people.

The bottom line whether in Antarctica or New York City is to have a safe place or time(s) of day where no one will bother you. The one true requirement of life is a sanctuary.

also to add, not only “small towns”, less populated areas in general,
are they an ideal environment,whats your opinion, (i don’t mean to make the question loaded).

I really appreciate your writings, i currently live in a city environment,naturally its densely populated and somewhat unbearable to me, i would like to escape to a small town less populated location(hopefully sustain myself with a small business).I’m curious, what are your thoughts on voluntary exile,and also if small towns are better environments for introverts who want to escape extrovert society.

Hi:

I rarely comment on blogs and forums, but i’d like to say, i’ve always thought of myself as being different than most people, i read much on introversion and extroversion, and i could say, most of the ideas which i spent much time pondering on is incredibly close to yours. I have also spent much effort trying to ‘fit in’ this society, pretend to be outgoing, with no success. But recently, i embraced the introversion side of me, your blog reconfirmed my own thoughts and ideas of where i belong in this world.

Much thanks.
