Life long introvert here, definitely like to keep to myself at work and outside of work besides just one or two friends or family. The last two nights I have had a very loud, extroverted person keep trying to have conversations with me every time I walk by them. This person constantly is the center of attention at work, always craving attention from every guy here. She kept coming up behind me and yelling loudly trying to talk to me and I can't tell you how uncomfortable that makes me, so finally I just turned and walked away to avoid her and she keeps coming up and bugging me, asking WHY I avoid her, why I wont talk to her and so on. I have politely said I just don't want to talk but she keeps pushing it. Again today she kept asking why I avoid her and I finally said "I don't need to have conversations with you every time I see you". Of course she got all pissed and said "fine, I won't bug you, asshole!". Why do people like this push us introverts? It makes me want to run and hide. I swear socializing is absolute torture. Sorry for the rant but I don't know what else to do
