Many people would consider me to be an extrovert. I am in many situations but in others, not so much. One business role in particular "in a prior life" demanded tons of contact with many people within the organization on a daily basis, public speaking and presentations, etc., etc. It forced me to become something that wasn't really all that natural for me. It worked out fine - most people never knew the difference. Now, as a result, I don't have any problems walking up to total strangers, introducing myself, and striking up a conversation. Many people feel like I have TOO much to say!!!
Speaking on Sandy's behalf - - - She was very introverted when we first met - extremely quiet, kept very much to herself, not much of one to go our of her way to meet people, etc. She used to shy away from attending any business functions with me as being around people she didn't know made her very uncomfortable.
Time.......and hanging around with me for 40 years!.......have made a difference. She's a completely different person now - talks much more easily with people, quiet a bit more outgoing, and so on. But again, like me, it didn't all come naturally. We're like a comedy tag-team now - always trying our best to have fun with whatever we're doing!
