WAIT - Why am I talking?
For the people who can't shut up during meetings when they don't have anything useful to add.
I have actually said that exact phrase out loud on occasion. I used to be really quite introvert but then I found my group and I'm pretty extrovert with them! Sometimes so much so that I realise I've been 'holding forth' and should probably shut up and let everyone else have a go.
I did this the other night on discord when someone brought up politics. Girlfriend had to step in and tell me to shut up.
Normally I'm the quietest one on VC 😂
I've been going to therapy after realizing I'm somewhat autistic and had a revelation that for all the groups I've been in where I felt extroverted the other people were also neurodivergent. It feels awesome to find a group that you really jive with!
