It can be very difficult to read an introvert’s mind. One can never truly know what they are actually thinking about. There is a lot that goes on between all the things that are said and the ones that are left unsaid.

In today’s article let’s take a look at 5 things introverts will never say.

1. “I’ll call you and let you know.”

Most introverts prefer to jot down their thoughts rather than tell you about them. That is why, rather than calling someone, they choose to send e-mails or messages. It’s not that they don’t want to hear you or that they don’t care about you; they simply prefer to express themselves in writing and are occasionally too busy to stay and chat.

2. “Isn’t the weather wonderful today?”

If you want to strike up a conversation with an introvert, make sure you have a topic in mind that will pique their interest. Contrary to popular opinion, introverts can have lengthy discussions; they simply prefer meaningful conversations over the usual chit-chat, which instantly repels an introvert. Make an effort to come up with a topic that is both intriguing and intellectually stimulating to discuss and watch how long the conversation goes on.

3. “Let me tell you one of my secrets”.

Though introverts can be just as sociable as anyone, they take a long time to open up. With time and care, they will gradually take down their walls and learn to trust you with their hearts.

Some introverts, though, may find it difficult to trust people. However, not all introverts struggle with trust issues. They simply choose to be diplomatic in their words and cautious in their emotions. Introverts understand themselves because they are incredibly self-aware; with this knowledge, they know what they require and desire.

4. “Sure! Let’s go to all the parties this week.”

Introverts get their energy from being alone, whilst extroverts get their energy from being with people. Introverts need some  “alone time” every day to feel at ease. One must respect that and not force them to do something they don’t want to do. When they’re in a large group, introverts often feel overwhelmed. 

5. Introverts May Be Affected By Things We Never Fully Understand.

Introverts are more resilient than they appear. They may be the quiet ones, but they are capable of supporting themselves. This does not, however, diminish their sensitivity. Introverts have a lower stimulus threshold. This implies that small things may not be that small in their eyes. They are affected in ways that an extrovert or ambivert may never fully comprehend. For introverts, bright lights, loud sounds, scratchy textures, and other unpleasant stimuli can be overwhelming. Emotional triggers, in addition to physical stimuli, might cause them stress. A careless remark or a poorly timed joke can cause them a lot of stress.
