That’s social anxiety btw.

False. I am definitely an introvert but if I’m going to pay for it, I’m going to get what I asked for.

MrMobius ,

I can relate. Most of the time this means a lot of regrets. But sometimes it leads to welcome discoveries.

I’m pretty sure that’s just social anxiety and not being an introvert.

Could be because someone is introverted as well, and just can’t be bothered to deal and talk to the waiter to sort the issue out.

pearsaltchocolatebar ,

That’s me. I’ll also eat pretty much anything, so it’s really not a big deal.

My wife won’t do it because of anxiety, though.

I don’t mind that at most restaurants where all the ingredients are pretty much the same. Chinese restaurants, Mexican restaurants, sure.

But breakfast restaurants - that’s my line in the sand. I refuse to have my eggs any differently.

That’s less of introvertedness and more a lackadaisical attitude

Yeah, there’s definitely a hassle vs reward calculus that quickly gets figured. Usually the hassle side of the equation is a little too high unless its something that can be quickly and easily fixed. Like if they forgot something it’s very easy to just go “oh, and can I please get …” which usually immediately reminds them and they go grab it.

Or if the food got royally fucked then engagement can become worth it, even over something harder to fix. Like, if my steak is well done and I ordered med rare, I kinda want either a new steak or a comped meal.

Ste41th ,

Yeah I suppose there is a line between ignoring the mistake and having to tell the waiter what the issue is, I mean especially with meat.

ByteOnBikes ,

Yep. I met extroverts who are absolutely terrified at standing up for themselves.

Damn, I never considered that combination before. Being extroverted with social anxiety would be awful.

Could just mean smaller friend groups as well. I conceptualize the major difference as introverts recharge by being alone and extroverts recharge by being around people. There was some recent research that disputed the concept of introverts and extroverts altogether, noting that when introverts became more regularly connected to people, their mental health improved. Introversion might just be the sum of our fears about connection that keep us from living a fuller life, with avoidance taking the role of an unhealthy coping mechanism for being unwilling to face our social fears. I say THAT because a lot of research has come to the conclusion that we are wired for connection and that the presence of close relationships is a strong predictor of the length of our life.

I also say this as someone with raging social anxiety, it sucks and I just get overwhelmed within a couple hours.

Well I gotta restructure my retirement funds for some short but quality time

Now that you mention it I think Ultron was just embarrassed they showed up before he was ready and was too shy to ask them to leave, his cover lie was full of holes.
