As an introvert you can't teach me how to be an extrovert but I can learn to like being around people.

This is true, I concur. However, I won't last for however as long as extroverts being with other people continuously. Give me some time to breathe every once in a while, even if for short periods.

As an aside, this is also part of why I kept my smoking habit. I know it's frowned upon by people, and I've got to stay away from other people to do my thing. The nice side effect is that it gives me a good five minutes or so of alone time, which in social situations, can mean the difference of me suddenly spacing out, and being able to last the entire ordeal. I haven't really found a good replacement for this, unfortunately—of course, this might just be my addiction speaking.
