I will continue the series on how women can be better girlfriends/wives next week, but thought I’d pass along what my brother (who’s an introvert) emailed me. He says it’s so true!

Hey lava, you should save this image as a *jpg and not a *bmp file. BMP should never be used in a browser because of slow loading time for the majority of the internet. Even better, why not manually type this out and do a link to the digg page?
BTW, I’m curious, as an extrovert, which one of these apply to you?
gosh… too much work Allan! lol can you just put the digg link in the comment section here?
I think the “never embarrass them in public” and the “reprimand them in private” is universal, regardless of extroversion/introversion. I just think it’s harder to embarrass an extrovert! But the reprimanding in private, definitely.
I can be a little introverted and agree with a lot of these, but some seem a little extreme. Give 15 minutes warning before calling them to dinner? That’s like something you would do with Rain Man. They’re introverts, not mentally disabled!
Dave lol. I asked my boyfriend about this list and he only agreed with 4 out of 12. either he’s not a true introvert or this list is a little off or maybe for extreme introverts?

This is an amazing list. Makes me realize my own introverted tendencies…even though I think that everyone is truly some of each.

It’s no wonder it got so many diggs! But yeah, mike we all have introverted tendencies at times.

‘Reprimand them in private”, and, “do not embarass them in public”. I would rewrite these two in bold letters, underlined twice.

Typical flipping extrovert…
