The world is seemingly divided into two groups: Introverts and extroverts. Everyone can easily spot an extrovert: The center of the group, the life of the party, the one that will talk your ear off.

But, what about Introverts? We are not as easily spotted which could be due to our quiet demeanor.

Some people do no realize that introverts are a necessity to society; they have more attributes to them than just a quiet mind.

If you have an introvert in your life and are interested in understanding them better, here are some tips.

1. We are not all necessarily "shy."

Sometimes, we just don't have anything worth saying. We prefer to keep to ourselves.

2. It's not that we don't like to be around people.

We do occasionally enjoy fun outings with friends and family, but sometimes we just prefer to be alone.

3. We cherish our alone time.

Having our alone time rejuvenates us and makes us an all around happier person. It is a necessity in our lives.

4. We schedule and look forward to our alone time.

Since our precious alone time is scheduled before hand, please don't be offended when we don't participate in plans for the sake of our alone time.

5. Just because we are an introvert, does not mean we have a negative personality.

People tend to assume that just because we have a quiet personality we are a negative, miserable person. This is not always true; please take the time to get to know us before placing a judgment.

6. There are plenty of successful introverts.

You know Abraham Lincoln, Emma Watson, Gandhi? Yep, all introverts. We have just as much talent and capability as any other extrovert.

7. Our idea of fun may be a little different than yours.

Us introverts do know how to relax and have fun; our idea of having a good time may just be a little different, such as staying in on a Saturday night and watching a movie.

8. We are introverts for life.

We can't just "switch" to being an extrovert. We are who we are. Love us like we have learned to love ourselves.
