My Introvertedness

I have always considered myself shy and introverted (the shyness a fear of judgement, the introversion my loner attitude), yet I never quite realized how much introversion played a role in my life. I thought it had more to do with my social situation than my tendency to get lost in my own thoughts. I'm not anti-social, but my social requirements are clearly different from the average person. I came to understand myself a bit more after reading the article from http://www.carlkingdom.com/10-myths-about-introverts. It pretty much summarizes information from one of Marti Laney's books, "The Introvert Advantage". I'm thinking of reading the book myself after I finish my current book. It should help me understand (at least scientifically) why I have always acted the way I do. I could be sensitive to dopamine.
