How to Help Your Introverted Friends

Note: This is a 90% humorous post I did because of all the craziness right now. I do not mean to poke fun at either introverts or extroverts.

During this time while most of us are at home, you may think this is an introverted person's dream. And... you'd probably be right. But it's hard on them too. Libraries are closed. There are no coffee shops to just work and chill in. There's a bunch of things that are hard on them, so here are some things you can do for your awesome introverted friends.

1. Send them snail mail. 

This is a fun, non-face to face way of showing them you care, and giving them something to brighten their day. Try putting in a poem, story, quiz to do together, or really any small flat object to make it more fun!

2. Get them coffee (or tea).

They could probably use a good cup of coffee or tea right now with all the stress. So send them a gift card to their favorite coffee shop, or send them some coffee beans/tea bags. 

3. Share a book with them. 

Since introverts are all busy doing their cool introverted things, they are probably running through their book supply pretty fast. So, send them a recommendation, or send them a book. 

4. Do a no phone challenge together.

Do a challenge not to use your phone for the whole day with them. Not only it'll this give y'all a fun thing to do together (whether you're in the same place or not), it also gives y'all a chance to unplug from other people and social media for a day. Believe me, you will both enjoy it.

5. Encourage them to go outside. 

Being faced with the happy prospect of not having to get out for a while, your friend may tend to forget to get outside. Remind them they can just take their book outside. =) 

Thank you for helping keep all the awesome introverts happy! Comment below with your favorite thing to do for introverts, and come back for a virtual fistbump for when you've done something off the list!
