I'm strongly introverted, but when I tell people that, nobody believes me. I worked for years in sales, and so trained myself in exhibiting extrovert qualities, and I'm a great public speaker and I enjoy it. I had to laugh - several years ago I was seriously considering moving 5000 miles to another province since the job prospects are better out there, and when I mentioned this in group therapy, someone said, well if anyone can move, start over, and build a social circle - it's you. I laughed to myself, since I was viewing the prospect with horror and found it funny that I could be perceived so differently than I felt.
