Can you elaborate between introversion / shyness??
I'm on my way!
Shyness is defined as being connected to anxiety about how people may perceive you or respond to you.
Introversion is a character trait that causes us to seek less stimulation, quieter environments and value 1:1 conversations. Introverts often like being with people, it's just that we can't take that level of stimulation for long and/or need a rest at the end of it. This is in contrast to extroverts who need that stimulation.
Of course, because the day to day world tends to be dominated by extroverts, and introversion is generally viewed negatively, introverted people can become shy and fear a negative reaction, but it doesn't mean all introverts start off shy.
Equally important, shyness is considered a problem for an individual which can impair their day to day life, and it can be reduced with assistance and intervention. Introversion is a trait, not an illness and does in fact have many advantages for the individual and those around them.
I disagree with your analysis (which seems a common one) in that you perceive shyness as a problem or a negative character trait. Where as introverts are happy with who they are and thier social interactions. I don't think shyness should have such negative connotation?
Sounds like you will have as many watches as I have .
A Roamer was the first watch I started off with . You must get a Sekonda. They seem to be pretty reliable and the gold plating seems robust. Montine have become more collectable and have gone up in value. Like you I also have a Gradus which looks like it was worn by someone who had sand paper hands as it is very worn .
