To be called a social person, there are varieties of things that will suit your personality like the fact that you have to be a very outgoing person who loves social gatherings and always wants to have fun, you will also enjoy talking and find happiness from interacting with other people, you won't like being alone, always love to render help to anyone that needs it, loves to make new friends and and the top of the list is that they are very confident people.
Looking at all these qualities of a social person, only very few of it goes with me. I don't think I can be called a social person because I am a bit shy, I want to mind my business at all times, I'm most productive when I'm alone and I love being alone.
I always want to render help and I'm a leader by virtue of being a teacher. I attend parties when it's very important and when the celebrant is close to me just to break out of my shell sometimes. I hold conversations but it's usually with friends and loved ones. I get tired of talking sometimes.
When there is too much noise, I usually feel useless. I can't concentrate or even think right. I can't assimilate while chewing talk less when a music is playing. I love my quietness and I've been known for that.
When I and my husband first got married, we had to deal with a whole lot of our differences. He is an extrovert. While we were courting, I didn't know I will face such challenges trying to cope with him.
I started complaining a lot about things that seem normal to him and he felt I was impossible to deal with. I was angry about the fact that he knew everyone and we can't just stroll down the street without him greeting about everyone he comes across, at times they even stop to discuss one or two things. This got me really angry at times. At other times, he has one function or the other to attend and he always wants me to go with him. This is so annoying at times that I only attend on the agreement that we leave at a particular time.
When he is at home, even when he has work to do, he would play his music so loud that I won't be able to concentrate on whatever I was doing and before you know it, I would have headache. We had to talk about this like adults before he started bringing it down gradually.
We may be having a conversation at times and he would believe that I was listening to him but I would have slept off because he talks a lot and wants you to listen.
The most annoying of them all was after church service, we may not leave until about two hours later. He will talk to Mr X and Mr Z and keep me waiting for hours.
All these were things that affected my relationship with him at the early stage of our marriage but with time, I had to deal with it and he also had to accept me for who I am and some times, we meet at the middle and that settles it. I'm comfortable with who I am and I love me.
