What does it take to get extroverts to really understand introverts?

Asked by ARE_you_kidding_me (20021points) June 14th, 2014

I have always found it frustrating to get certain individuals to give me the space I need. When I explain that I just need some “me” time to recharge and refresh they look at me like I’m from a different planet. When extroverts do try to rationalize introverted behavior they always seem to think that there is something wrong with us. They’ll commonly think it’s “social anxiety” or something like that. We know it’s not but how do you get them to understand this? What has worked for you? Has anything helped?
