Introvert means a shy reticent person, reticent means not revealing one's thoughts or feelings readily.
The thought for this came to me after a worldwide of an encounter I had a yesterday mixed with some prior encounters before that. My bios says it and I expressed it many times while messaging that I am an introvert. Many of the Doms I speak with express how that is okay and how they understand. But then seconds later ask for sexual things or want to jump right into an intense conversation. Here’s why that doesn’t work for someone like me.
I am not the type of introvert that gets a little shy in a crowd or takes a second to warm up to new setting. I am on the more extreme side where large setting can be crippling for me, confrontation can be paralyzing and fear ridden. I’m already out of my comfort zone and need to slowly progress into getting to know the person I’m talking to. I may not be extremely expresses in conversation and give short worded answers but it doesn’t mean that I’m not paying attention or not engaged. The encounter caused me to sit back and reflect on a few things. Even though the situation could have been handle with much more maturity than it was handle with. It doesn’t subtract from the fact that feelings were clearly hurt. So my question for Subs and Doms alike how would you approach a situation with an introvert and how should an introvert engage in a situation. Although last night and this morning have been very taxing emotionally I don’t see any situation in life as useless I see them as lesson you can learn from and that’s what I’m trying to do to avoid and prevent this in the future.
