Nah, I love my extroverts. They do what I repeatedly fail to do, and help pull me into the conversation and actually get some social interaction rather than sulking quietly in a corner.

Extroverts that know how to pull introverts into social interaction are the best and I have often looked up to them.

It sounds like you're shy, not introverted.

Introverts need social interaction too, just less of it.

That's how it starts out, but decades later you're not shy anymore, you're just lazy in starting a conversation and rely on others who have much less inertia.

I also love my extrovees

Yes, but it sounds like you're extroverted but shy.

Where does it imply that he's an extrovert?

People far too often confuse introversion with social anxiety. It's becoming my biggest pet peeve.
