Introverts and
extroverts usually have different expectations of what they want in a
relationship therefore many introverts wonder if its okay to date an
extrovert and the answer is: Yes, it is okay and you can have a long
healthy relationship with an extrovert, but only if these 7 things
are present in the relationship:
1. Mutual interests: This doesn’t mean that you have to agree on everything but there
has to be a couple of things that you both enjoy doing together for
example, watching a certain TV show or a certain genre of movies,
playing a sport or maybe cooking. There are studies that confirm that
couples who do things together have a higher chance of staying
together.
2. Independence: It
is important that your partner is independent and is perfectly
capable of doings things without you because that means that you
would be able to have your alone time. The less thing an introvert
needs is a clingy partner who wont leave them alone one minute.
3. Understanding: Besides being independent they have to be understanding of your
personality and sadly this is something very few extroverts get. Most
of the time introversion is being confused with shyness, social
anxiety or even anti-social behavior. This is why it is important
that if your partner is an extrovert they understand what
introversion is, otherwise, they are going to start a fight next time
you don't want to go with them to a social event, and we all know how
much introverts hate confrontation.
4. Intelligence: Your partner doesn’t have to be a genius but they have to be smart
enough to be able to hold meaningful conversations. Introverts crave
conversations about deep stuff and who better to have these
conversations with than with your partner?
5. Trust: If you
can’t trust the person you are dating, then why are you with them?
Introverts take time to open up and they don’t do it with everyone
so they have to really trust someone in order to be completely open
with that person. Introverts need a partner who is also their
confident, someone they can trust their darkest secrets.
6. Sense of humor: Many extroverts believe that introverts don’t have a good sense of
humor, that we are serious and stuck up which is not true at all,
introvert usually have a witty, dark and sarcastic sense of humor and
we need someone who gets our humor and doesn’t judge us for it.
This doesn't mean that they have to laugh at the same things that you
do, my partner prefers silly simple comedies while I only enjoy humor
if its witty and sarcastic, at first it was hard for him to get my
humor but he finally did and we always have a blast and laugh about
many things together.
7. Respect: Possibly one of the most important if not the most. Your partner
needs to respect you in every way, respect your needs, desires and
your decisions. You need someone who will treat you with respect in
every situation, even during disagreements because having
disagreements it is normal for any couple but disrespect is not okay
and it shouldn’t be seen as normal. Insults, yelling or worse
physical abuse shouldn’t never be tolerate in a relationship.
Now that you know
which are the 7 things you need in a relationship its just a matter
of time to meet the person who is right for you.
