How can you tell if a mathematician is an extrovert?
They look at your shoes when they talk to you.

I would say I am an extrovert.
I often talk to strangers in public. I used to work in Sales and I was a waitress for 20 years. I feel I can make conversation with just about anyone.

Totally introvert. Iām with Ron Swanson on thisā¦
āI once worked with a guy for three years and never learned his name. Best friend I ever had. We still never talk sometimes.ā

The problem with the question is the framing. Extroversion/Introversion occurs on a spectrum. Iām an ambivert.

Okay, Iām looking for a person who is strongly extroverted, then Iām looking for a further layer after that. Ping me back if you are:
- Strongly Extroverted
- Had Siblings who were not
or - Had at least one strongly introverted parent
Thanks for the help, gang!

@saf Iād say Iām mostly introverted in the sense that I favor small groups or one-on-one conversations, but I actually love talking on the phone. I will BS about anything and everything with close friends for hours. My friends/coworkers would argue Iām actually more extroverted/personable than I think ā but really I think it comes down to whether or not I like the people around me 
ā or Iām maybe just not your typical physicist.

Lemme get this straightāyouāre looking for a person who is strongly extrovertedāon a music-originated message board?
Arenāt all those type of people milling around in public and glad-handing other likeminds? Too busy at the sales convention in Sacramento to ferret out a little time for posting their pet peeves?

If youāre looking for neuro-diverse whiskey drinkers who are comfortable talking in public to large groups but who wilt in forced-gatherings and find regimented chit chat soul-abrading, then Iām your man.
