You took a personality test and learned that you're an introvert.

This discovery makes a lot of sense given the many of the ways you react and feel on a daily basis. 

You do some research on introverts, and while some articles describe you perfectly, others don't even come close. There are introverted behaviors that don't fit you at all.

  • You don't hate socializing.
  • You don't want to spend all of your time by yourself.
  • You feel comfortable meeting and talking with other people.
  • People think you're talkative and outgoing.
  • You have close-knit group of friends.

So you can still be an introvert — just a more outgoing one. While some people do fall close to an extreme end, others are more in the middle, giving them qualities of both.
