Definitely! It works best when the guy is the introvert and the girl is the extrovert though! I've also been in two girl/girl relationships where my girlfriends were both introverts, while I'm a TOTAL extrovert! I think introverts NEED extroverts to bring them out of their shells!

I couldn't agree more. You nailed this one. I'll expand this question. Could a liberal progressive and die hard Conservative coexist or even thrive in a relationship?

That's funny because I would say I'm an introverted extrovert. I do need a bit of a push.
Anyway, don't they say opposites attract.

I agree with most others on here opposites do attract. I'm quite introverted. So Derek if I give you a gentle push.....

They can but it is a lot of work. My husband is an introvert and I am an extrovert. We struggle with things.

I like to face my problems and he likes to keep them inside.

Sometimes I get very upset and frustrated.

I think communication is the key....

I am very outgoing and very friendly and love to have fun. It is like two different worlds sometimes.

I'm an introvert, and to be honest, people are exhausting. Being around extroverts feels like my energy is being sucked out, and it really drains me. My partner is a bit of both - sometimes he's a total extrovert (we tend to fight more, because I just want him to leave me alone when he wants to play) and sometimes he loves sitting quietly with a book.

It can work, communication is the key as with any relationship.

You're an introvert? That surprises me. Is there an extrovert trying to get out? I think that's me, more insecure than introvert.

or vice versa.

Yeah, I'm not sure how two extroverts would feel about sharing center stage.

I definitely think they can, as long as both people are understanding of the other. There needs to be compromise, but that should be present in any successful relationship.

Of course they can. Cause I've been in a relationship like that. I'm pretty introverted outside of lush and my gf at the time was a huge extrovert.

She did bring me out of my shell a bit too. So I'm now more confident in conversation. But initiating one irl still fills me with anxiety and dred

Introvert or extrovert, I think no relationship can truly grow if you go on holding back. In spite of their differences, introverts and extroverts make great romantic partners. But if you remain clever and go on protecting yourself, only the apparent personalities meet, and the essential human centers remain alone. In this situation, only your mask is related, not you. And in introvert or extrovert relationship, partners balance each other out. Perhaps it’s a case of opposites attracting, what one partner lacks, the other more than makes up for. But the most important thing is that heart and soul is involved, otherwise, there are four persons in the relationship, not two; two false persons go on meeting, and the two real persons remain worlds apart. Is't it ? smile

Of course. I'm an extreme introvert and my wife is extroverted (relatively). For the most part we complement each other. She encourages me to get out and be more social and not get carried away in my own head, and I can keep her grounded when she gets caught up in friend-drama. At the same time we respect each other and make room for each other to be ourselves. I accept and appreciate who she is and don't try to change her, and vice versa. We've been together for about a dozen years now and most of it has been happy.

We compliment each other. As extrovert I am naturally dominant in the bedroom. As introvert she is naturally submissive .With roleplaying we sometimes change roles .

So Yes .
