Were not superficial 🙂 I (well most of us lol) We actually value things that are truly important because we know what it's like to live without them... if that makes sense lol.
We don't have to deal with a lot of the drama that most of society faces on a daily basis, and (at least in my mind) I live in a "smaller" world, and I have found more control over some important external aspects of our environment.
In my case, I hate listening to people who complain about politics all day, people who shove religion down my throat, and having to be exposed to indecent media/art/pornography. Stuff like that makes me mad because its obtrusive and offensive to me, but because of my SA, I get offended a lot less because I spend time alone in my personal little comfort zone where I can keep things I don't like out. 😛
We are able to truly understand what it feels like to live without something that everyone else takes for granted and don't even think about.
I find that this helps me empathise with others who have been deprived in some way (e.g. extreme poverty / physical disability); things that the rest of society might not truly understand because they take so many things for granted.
I agree with you on so many levels. When I try to think of any benefits I'm getting out of this, I think of this and it makes me feel slightly better 🙂
We are all members of the SArmed Forces, which is the most dominant world power. However we like to lay low for now, but when the time comes, the SArmed Forces will save the day from the evil extroverts!
I don't know if it's true or not but maybe us SAers have greater empathy towards other SAers and other people who suffer from OCD and depression and what not because we know how it feels first hand and can relate to these people. We are really caring and strive to help one another out.
Another thing "good" about SA is that we have more spare time and alone time and more space and privacy which we really can't complaint too much about 🙂
- Never have to clean after house guests!
- We probably appreciate a walk in the park ten times more than a social person would
- We have a lot of free time that we don't have to waste on relationship drama. So we can read books/work out/better ourselves, etc...
- We're not troublemakers
- Don't have to check facebook every 5 seconds like other people
Just think of how many wrinkles you're avoiding by not interacting with people. Every time you smile or make facial expressions you just get more wrinkles.
