Introverts crave personal space to reflect and refuel, and they can sense when their partners need space, too
They make quality friends
Since introverts can feel their energy being drained by being around other people – as opposed to extroverts, who gain energy from being with others- introverts choose their friends wisely. They would rather have a few close, trusted friendships to invest their time and energy in, as opposed to a large network of acquaintances, according to Buelow.
“Introverts are pretty picky about who we bring into our lives,” Buelow says. “It requires some energy, and if you do come into our inner circle, that means a lot.”
