Is it normal to be worried to have to pair up with an extrovert?

I was just hired to work at a hospital. There were 5 new workers hired including me. I suck at being social and making new friends. I've to put lots of efforts just to make one new friend. It's double worse as I get paired up with this new super extrovert dude among our new hired group. I'll have to work with only him alone in this new workplace next week and I am worried if I fucked up everything trying to get along with him as I imagine the worst scenario between an introvert and extrovert.

      It's just that it would leave me very uncomfortable to work with just the two of us and that he's a super extrovert kind of guy. I would rather work alone if I've to be stucked with this guy but it's all just wishful thinking now.

    You could probably learn a bit from him and it won’t be so hard to make friends

      I would always really love to but the thought of fucking up at trying to befriend an extrovert like him while teaming up with him at work worries me so much. Because I am aware I suck at making new friend at workplace or wherever.

        I suppose, but fucking up just puts you back to square one, which is where you’ll be if you don’t try.

          Well, I do plan to try my best ever since I knew who I am going to get paired up with. So, hope you wish me the best for the next week.

    I would say what you’re saying makes sense. I used to be super introverted but recently I have found that usually people don’t care about you. I know that sounds harsh but I don’t mean it in that way not that they don’t care about you as a person but just about your actions. So I wouldn’t even worry about if they think how you act is weird. And at the end of the day if they do you have a problem with you that’s on them and I wouldn’t sweat it dude.

      I think this extrovert dude cares about my introvert-ish actions. Just today when the 5 of us gathered. He voiced that it sucked for him to be stucked with an introvert like me for the next week. His remark of dissapproval was what drove me to actually made this post in the first place. I am not kidding when he said that. It's still a painful remark to hear from an extrovert regardless if he's joking or not because I know part of him must've been honest on showing his dismay towards my introversion or else he wouldn't say it all in the first place.

          Yup. Pretty much, lol. It's just that I think we're bound to be incompatible or hardly compatible at most.
