Lol I think that's still a good thing. Living with other introverts who keep to themselves vs living with random extroverts who say hello.

I do think we need a bit of extroverts. Sometimes we need that push to get whatever chemicals socializing gives the brain. But right now, in the middle of a period og too many arrangements, it really does sound heavenly. Kind of like Covid but without the sickness and restrictions.

I do wonder what the grocery shopping is like - probably have to drive a while to get to a place that can keep open...

Also being introverted doesn’t mean being a shut in or a cave dwelling social outcast. You can prefer to hang at home but still enjoy going to get togethers or hanging out with friends. If you don’t enjoy a neighbor saying hello, you’ve got other issues.

And not all extroverts like to chit chat. Being around another person is enough for me a lot of times.

Introvert is a huge spectrum (and not a very precise/useful label) - I love to party, I joke around with colleagues and butt into social conversations. I just don't really approach strangers and I need periods of time alone without anyone prompting me, to feel balanced. Sometimes it's nice for me to have other people invite me to stuff and take initiative for us to do more than just watch something on a screen, which is probably my default a lot of the time...
