I'd like to relax people around me, make them happy and communicative. Imagine entering public transport during rush hour, and all of a sudden, everyone around you puts away the phone and people start to talk to eachother, with a smile on their face.

That's my nightmare scenario. I just want to get where I'm going with as little interaction as possible 90% of the time.

When extrovert and introvert collide.

That's the whole point of this superpower. No nightmares.

But the having to interact with the other people regardless of how nice or relaxed they are is the nightmare for me. I very rarely want to interact with strangers beyond a hello.

But some of us get stressed out when people try to talk to us.

If you're there, you'll enjoy the conversation :) Superpower, remember?

You underestimate my power to not talk to people.
