Family time is extremely overwhelming, so how do we stand it every year? Well, as introverts, we lean on our extroverted cousins and siblings for support, hoping they'll field awkward questions from Grandma about our personal lives as our weird uncles yap about the drones flying over the USA. Introverts have a very special skill of becoming much like the wallpaper–inoffensive, silent, and decorative. We may be present at every function, but as we recede into the furniture cushions and the pies grow stale on the counter, a truly antisocial introvert knows they've reached their socializing threshold.
Jealous of Grandpa asleep on the armchair, introverts don't always have the same luxury of falling asleep whenever they're tired of chatting. If only! So if you're saving up your social battery for chit-chat at the family dinner, remember that you'll always have your cozy bed to return to at the end of the evening. With a simple goal in mind–like executing a perfect Irish goodbye after the first course–you'll be getting through the holidays in no time!
