We always knew that we had different levels of socialness and were not sure at moments how the friendship even worked half the time. You always seemed to prefer going out and loved having large groups to socialize with. While me, I loved quiet nights in to watch movies or TV shows and love socializing with just a few close friends.
You always seemed to thrive and get energized from being social. While I was always drained from socializing and I liked socializing in smaller doses, because introverts still like to socialize. In other words, we were the classic extrovert and introvert.
And despite the different levels of socialization, we decided to become friends. Which I am very thankful for!
We both ended up learning the pros of the other's socialization type. Because it is nice to go out with friends and it's nice to stay in with friends. I found myself trying new things and embracing the idea of going out on adventures as we like to call them. And I think you love to stay in with some friends and watch movies and talk from time to time.
We never tried to change the other. I am still an introvert and you are still an extrovert. I still need to recharge after socializing and you thrive from socializing. But we learned how to spend time going out and staying in.
Sometimes I think people do not understand how we became best friends. Heck, I do not think we even know. It is an unlikely friendship but the best kind of friendships and probably one of the goofiest.
In the end, we are still just an extrovert and an introvert, who decided to become best friends and I could not be happier to have you as one of my best friends, even if we disagree on so many things.
