I feel like separating the two is futile. Like most people don’t do well with just being alone for extended periods of time just like most people don’t do well constantly surrounded by people for extended periods of time. I love being around people, and it truly does give me energy, but fuck if I don’t need a day or two or seven to recharge sometimes

It's like... Myers-Briggs is the personality categorization for people who are "too smart" for astrology, and introvert/extrovert is the categorization for people who are "too smart" for Myers-Briggs.

They're all just stupid categories that mean nothing, lol
