35. introvert is not a synonym for hermit: Introversion
is also very different from Asperger’s
syndrome, the autism spectrum disorder
that involves difficulties with social
interactions such as reading facial expressions
and body language. Introversion and
Asperger’s both can involve feeling overwhelmed
in social settings. But unlike
people with Asperger’s, introverts often
have strong social skills. Compared with
the one third to one half of Americans who
are introverts, only one in five thousand
people has Asperger’s. See National Institute
of Neurological Disorders and Stroke,
