I gotta admit I'm pretty confused with these labels. I thought intro/extro were labels applied to behaviours of people, not some intrinsic want.

E.g. if you have social anxiety or were shy, driving you to stay indoors and not interact no matter how much you wanted to, that's introverted.

I spent most of my life like that, at peace with my own hobbies, and happy to be left alone, but later in life overcame my social issues and developed a slow rapport with people, that then turned into enjoying others company.
