18 Pointless Things You Can Say To Make Introverts Furious

Deny all you want, but introversion is a trait looked down upon by the rest of the world. They find introverts pitiful, miserable, and people battling a disease that requires them to be bed-ridden, all the effing time.

Introverts prefer silence in awkward social situations, unless of course, they click with someone right. That’s a given. Yet, as it turns out, people can never get used to their silence. “Why are you so quiet today? Is everything okay?” is a common question all introverts are tired of dodging. But that’s not all.

Following are some of the other many comments/questions they say to introverts, that make them go all sarcastic in their heads.

1. “Are you not keeping well? Tell me what’s wrong. Tell me.”

You. You are wrong.

 

2. “Don’t worry, we will get you some drinks and you will become a party person within minutes.”

Just like you consider introverts dull, I don’t consider being a party person, a definition of being happening.

 

3.

And when an introvert smiles or laughs, they say, “Are you okay? How are you smiling so much today?”

Can’t live either way.

 

4. “How can one enjoy living such a boring and colourless life?”

My life has more colours than the different hues of nail paints you own.

But, I prefer not showing them off.

That’s all.

 

5. “How can you be an introvert? I saw you talking to those three people the other day!”

Yeah, because you know all about being an introvert.

 

6.

*Putting a reminder*

 

7. “How can you have opinions that matter? You don’t talk anyway.”

Introverts share opinions when they know it is worth it.

How can one’s opinions be sidelined simply because the person talks less? What’s the relation, really?

 

8. “Watch this video/read this book. You will regain confidence.”

*Facepalm*

 

9.

No, no. I find my me-time too precious to spend in bars and in shopping.

 

10. “Why didn’t you wish that person properly on his/her birthday? Why don’t you learn to socialize?”

Introverts prefer not to put fake smiles on and recite an essay of fake best wishes for the birthday person they care hardly about. They are comfortable with the idea of not being liked.

 

11. “Start living. You are miserable.”

Their ways of leading their lives are more substantial than yours. You can’t even imagine, unless one of these lets you into his/her heart.

 

12.

Because it might not be too mainstream or ‘cool’, but I have my own way of enjoying.

 

13. “Oh come on, you Kill Joy. Play the bloody game with us!”

“Erm, I don’t want to?”

 

14. “Are you scared of me? Don’t worry, I will not bring you any harm. You can talk to me.”

Feeling like a hero, aren’t you?

 

15.

“Bol liya kar kabhi toh kuch. Chal bol ke dikha!”

 

16. “Text less. Shout and talk! Learn to come out of your shell.”

You can’t force your opinions onto anyone. Especially not an introvert. And their shell is not a hell hole, by the way.

 

17. “Be more like them. See, how easily they get mixed up with new people.”

Would you ever advise extroverts to be more like introverts?

 

18.

It is NOT a disease. Introverts are fine the way they are.

They think you are aloof, an emo, and mysteriously evil. And why wouldn’t they? Judging is always a great way to know a person, after all (sarcasm intended). What they fail to realize, however,  is that introverts are nothing but people of their Own Kind.
