Article 4: Don't @ Me, Introvert

So, you're an introvert and people keep talking to you. It's like they think you're just a fancy new type of pet that they can play with whenever they want, without any regard for your feelings or personal space. Newsflash: You're not a pet. You're a human with thoughts and feelings, even if you don't have any social skills.

Here are some tips for dealing with these pesky people:

• Practice your "I'm busy, go away" face in the mirror.
• Learn to say "I'm not interested" without apologizing.
• Develop a strong sense of self-worth that doesn't depend on the validation of others.
• Invest in a good pair of earplugs.

And remember, it's okay to be an introvert. You're not weird, you're just... different. Like a unicorn, but with more alone time.

Read on for more tips, or just to see if we've finally figured out how to be human.
