Many people classify themselves as extroverts or introverts, but what about the people who don’t really fit into either of those categories? For them, life can be a constant struggle of mixed feelings and complicated social gatherings.

1. You have one or two best friends.

Any any point you have one or, maybe, two friends who you are really close with. Those people are your life and they know everything about you. You are not really a "group of friends" type of person. That is far too stressful and hard to keep up with.

2. People assume that you are anti-social.

You really aren't anti-social, you're selectively social. Although going out and partying all of the time is not really your thing, that does not mean that you don't like to have fun with your friends every once in a while. You are quite charming, but also extremely introspective. You live inside your head, but can also be the life of the party.

3. You try not to interact as much.

Most of the time, you will go out of your way to avoid interaction with people. However, when you actually have to interact with them, you make it seem like there is nothing that you'd rather be doing. You are open and very friendly once someone actually gets you to talk to them.

4. You make new friends easily.

It is very easy for you to appear friendly to new people and they will quickly befriend you. However, it can be rather difficult to maintain these friendships for a long time.

5. You probably hate traditional systems.

Between large office spaces, modern educational systems, and crowded bars, the world is a stressful place. You get easily distracted and can feel vulnerable in these types of environments.

6. Coffee shops are your best friends.

Places like coffee shops and cafes are where you are happiest. You are surrounded by a lot of people there, but you can still be to yourself and do your own thing.

7. Your energy level depends on where you are.

Social settings are very much a hit or miss. If you are with your close friends, then you feed off of their interaction and energy. If you are with others, social interaction can just drain you and the extroverts who are there will start to annoy you for no real reason.

8. People think that you flirt with everyone.

You come off as friendly to everyone and, because of that, people tend to think that you are pretty flirty. This is actually pretty funny, seeing as how you can probably only tolerate a few people in the room.

9. You can seem rather mysterious.

This is completely unintentional. There really is no mystery, you just do not feel the need to update the social sphere on what is going on in your life all of the time.

10. People always pick you to talk.

In group projects or presentations, people always assume that you are the best suited to give the speech. This sucks because that is the last thing that you want to do.

11. You prefer meaningful conversation.

Small talk is literally hell. You don't see any point to it. Having a deep conversation with a close friend is much more enjoyable than trying to awkwardly talk about the weather with a stranger.

12. Just because you like being alone, it does not mean that you are lonely.

You value your peace and quiet above almost anything, but this does not mean that you do not like to spend time with your friends. You have a delicate balance to uphold that keeps you functioning.

13. People often confuse you for an extrovert.

On the outside, you appear the same. You've probably been called an extrovert quite often. Extroverts, however, focus on the outside world, while you are much more introspective.

14. You probably didn't know this until recently.

It has taken you years to figure out that you are an extroverted introvert. I'm 19 and I only just realized it. However, now that you have, you suddenly know why so many people annoy you and why your brain works differently from most people's.
