But it\u2019s not the case. However lively someone may seem online some people just don\u2019t want to be the life and soul of the party 24\/7 (even though they can if they want to be).<\/p>\n<p>So if you\u2019re dating someone who can party with the best of them but need some time alone to retreat back and recharge we\u2019ve got some top tips.<\/p>\n<p><b>Being an introvert isn\u2019t a negative thing. <\/b>Saying \u201cI\u2019m an introvert\u201d can seem like a negative quality. But it\u2019s not. It\u2019s just that introverts value their alone time and need to have their own space to relax their mind. This is a good thing. If you\u2019re dating an introvert remember to give them their space when they need it.<\/p>\n<p><b>Start listening. <\/b>If you\u2019re an extrovert then we\u2019re guessing that you love to talk. In fact, you probably talk in order to think. Well, start working on your listening skills. Introverts will spend time giving attention to your thoughts and feelings so you need to give back and do the same.<\/p>\n<p><b>Try some low key dates. <\/b>Not all dates need to be wild, whacky and loud. Try mixing in some low key dates so the introvert doesn\u2019t feel drained. A forest walk, a picnic even a movie where they can escape are all good choices.<\/p>\n<p><b>Know their limits. <\/b>Get to know your dates limits when it comes to going out. When they start to get bored or tired then be sensitive to it and get out of there.<\/p>\n<p><b>Quiet time can still be together time. <\/b>Just because your date may want peace and quiet it doesn\u2019t mean that you can\u2019t still spend time with them. Read a book, relax, touch hands or feet whilst you\u2019re doing it just to keep connected. Not all time together has to be spent communicating.<\/p>\n<p>Are you an introvert? What tips would you give?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the rise of social media you\u2019d think that everyone was outgoing, bubbly and social butterflies.
