It takes one to know one, so I feel you. It's the feeling of wanting to say "yes" to plans and see your friends but having the image of cuddling with your dog in bed at the same time. We come out of our shell a lot actually, and when we do, we're usually the most outgoing in the bunch. But at the end of the day, all we want is some alone time.

Most people who aren't close to us may take our wishy-washy attitude towards activities and social events as "lazy," but really, there are other things we like just as much as a night out—things that are more personal—like writing in a journal, drawing, starting a new Netflix series, or even just spending time at home with our family. We don't hate you, I promise.

If you're an introverted extrovert yourself, you definitely know what I'm talking about...the feeling of FOMO paired with the simultaneous feeling of pure happiness in bed. We could watch any Snapchat story of a party we were invited to, but chose not to go to, and just tap through like its nothing. We may feel an ounce of regret the next morning, but we tend to just brush it off.

Don't get me wrong, we like to socialize, but having too many social responsibilities in a short period of time becomes stressful for us, not enjoyable. Small talk? Can't stand it. Sudden phone calls for "checking in?" No thank you... we'll let that one go to voicemail. Texting back quickly? Why do you think we keep our read receipts off...

Our opposing inclinations make us miss out on things we wish we didn't, though...like joining clubs and being the leaders we know we're capable of being. We don't want to fall under someone else as a "follower," but we don't want to deal with the responsibilities of communicating as leaders day in and day out.

So how do you get us to agree to something and stick to it? It's simple, make plans ahead of time! Once an introverted extrovert is showered and in bed, no matter what time it is, there's no way they're getting up for spontaneous plans. However, if they know that next Friday at 6:30 P.M. the girls are going to dinner, they'll totally be there if they can and happy as can be!

At the end of the day, we know we're complicated. But, we love you, we want to see you, and we want to party too! However, we might just like our bed a tad more.
