Introverts are often bombarded with stereotypes that they’re negative, antisocial loners, when in reality, that can’t be further from the truth. While the definition of an introvert varies greatly depending on who you talk to, most are thoughtful and introspective, and they need time to recharge on their own—but they certainly don’t mind spending time with people, especially smaller groups.
