From my understanding with regards to extroverts and introverts is it's energy based. So extroverts get energy from being in social situations and introverts can do it but it just feels draining. They will recharge alone.@skyrunner1 you mentioned that women and their brains light up with a chemical high when they communicate. What about extroverts in general, not just women? And also, women and people who are introverts don't get a chemical high when they communicate.
Neurotransmitters dopamine and acetylcholine are the ones that seem to have most influence. With dopamine being the pleasure having more affect on extroverts and energizing them while also connecting memories to past events that introverts don't react the same to. While acetylcholine also provides feel good feelings it's more inward and subtle. That's why introverts get pleasure from alone time or a good book.
Mind u it's like a scale some people can be both depending on situation and environment, plus u have ambiverts, omniverts and whatever else verts they want to make up to cover all the bases
