Life as an introvert can be a challenge. It’s not that I don’t like people. Well, I don’t, but that’s beside the point. It’s more that being around people is exhausting. “People time” needs to be carefully planned and occasionally avoided.

My fellow introverts on Tumblr agree. Here are 15 posts that sum up life as an introvert.

15. And quickly

14. Seriously bad

13. Amen

12. Cats are perfect

11. Stick with the plan

10. That’s murder

9. Really, really boring

8. It’s a problem

7. Feeling lonely is tough

6. That’s not enough time

5. Sometimes you make new friends

4. I could write a series

3. Not happening

2. You’re not people

1. So awkward

It’s a tough life for the introverts among us – but at least there’s tumblr!
