Exactly this, my dad’s an introvert but is the most charismatic person I know. He does great with people, but is the last to arrive and the first to leave since he finds it so draining. He “recharges” when he’s by himself.
Oh, does that make him MajorEffort? Or GeneralEffort?
He's actually AdmiralEffort.
I'm the opposite. I'm an extrovert but really shy.
That's kinda what I do too. I acknowledge it as an effort that needs to be managed and have strategies to recharge afterwards.
I don't hate being around people but it does take a lot of energy.
