I was specifically looking for an artical to share with my extrovert husband, to help him understand my introvertism. Pre COVID, he traveled quite a bit and that was the perfect solution for us. Now we are home together. I haven't had to explain myself to him because we had a built in solution with his travel. Now, I'm struggling. I have never had to ask for alone time. Now, I have to ask and it crushes my soul to tell him that I need some space. I think introverts have a very hard time asking to be alone because that goes against the grain of being a loving human. For me, I feel like a monster telling those that I love to back up and give me space.
