I don’t know what’s better.

I am just saying that I don’t believe that extroverted people are more likely to allow toxic people in their lives. There’s just no evidence of that imho. It’s just an opinion. One opinion isn’t better than other. In absence of evidence both are just opinions.

No, I am not confusing things. No I wasn’t talking about social competence
