The only problem with seeing people you know is that they know you.   Brent Runyon, The Burn Journals Boy isn't this the truth.  This is so me - and so typical of an introvert I think, even outgoing ones like me.  I've been places and spotted people I know and I have gone down aisles and backed up and changed my course just so I don't have to interact with them if I'm not feeling up to it.  It almost always has nothing to do with the person but everything to do with me and my preference to be by myself - even in a store full of people.  Maybe you can relate to this - if so you have at least a little introvertness in you.  Maybe you can't relate on any part to this - my guess is you are extroverted.  :)  And both are okay and acceptable. I love having people in my life, I love having my "circles" but I'm pretty inward, more so than most people guess, and so I crave time by myself and I know when I enter into public I risk seeing so...
