The ability to get easily acquainted with being alone, is an attribute that dominates the introvert's major characteristics. To be around with people even in a short period can easily drain their energies. To cope up with it, they needed some time to be alone by themselves to recharge.  It’s something that is uniquely coherent to someone like me but that may seem unusual to the common norms that are generally accepted.
