Would you guys rather date extroverts or introverts?

17 Comments

Just curious and please explain why. Note: introvert does not always mean low self-esteem or a lack of self confidence! And introversion and shy are not exactly the same things. Introverts can be shy, but they don't necessarily have to be.

As an introvert, I like introverts 54
As an introvert, I like extroverts 23
As an introvert, I like both/don't have a preference 39
As an extrovert, I like extroverts 11
As an extrovert, I like introverts 8
As an entrovert, I like both/don't have a preference 5

    I'd struggle to date someone who didn't have some introverted thinking, but I enjoy the company of extroverts too.

    I'm an extrovert married to an introvert.
    I used to go out with extroverts but found we were actually competing to tell our friends the things that had happened or were funny. Another extrovert is entertaining when it's new but not for the long-term.

    As an introvert, I feel much more confortable in the company of like-minded people. I would find it difficult to date an extrovert, because she'd want to do stuff all the time and talk about her huge number of friends and go out partying, and I don't like any of those things.

    The fact that I can choose between an introvert and an entrovert both of whom like both makes me feel like I'm in some elementary school trick question...

    I don't think it's fair to put a label on someone and the say "I only date extroverts". We should just see and accept the person as they are.

    That being said, I've been attracted to a few extroverted girls but my crushes tend to be with introverted girls. Probably because they're just shy and adorable. I can't help it.

    I'm an ambivert by the way, I used to be heavily introverted.

      I was the same way, too, but I actually like the company of others.

      I didn't say, "I only date these kinds of people", I said what do people prefer- like do people prefer people that are nerdy or people that are jocks- or do they not have an preference? Honestly, I've tended to like extroverts as an introvert, but they can be ambiverts, too.

    Where is the option for ambivert? People say I'm an ambivert.

    Anyways, introvert, extrovert, doesn't matter

        Yep. Probably one of the worst songs of the year. I was hoping someone would get my reference. :)
