How much "alone" time do you need?
Whether it is to get away from kids, significant others, work, hustle and bustle.

Do you need time to read a book, watch your favorite show/movie by yourself, or just be alone thinking your thoughts?

I bring this up just having watched Johnny Carson's life story. He was able to separate the person we saw on TV and turn 180 degrees for what he relished as a private person. That is, he needed "alone" time in big chunks.

Mostly this. But everyone else is asleep by 9 so I get a few hours at night.

But, I really don't think she is because she wants someone around every waking second, whether it be me, friend, or family. She is unable to go to the store, or do virtually anything by herself. To me, I think you can definitely be an extrovert, and still be shy.

I don't know how married family guys with four kids do it. I really don't. Is there any relevance to being an introvert and not seeking a family vs extroverts?
I would think so. I am definitely an introvert and most definitely not shy.

I don't think you have to rule out marriage because you're an introvert. You just have to make yourself clear to your wife before it goes very far. And make sure you don't have a crazy wife.

But really, don't get married.

On another note, I enjoy traveling with my wife, but I'm also happy traveling by myself. If she doesn't want to go somewhere and I do, she just bids me adieu and I go have a nice time. I like being an anonymous stranger in a strange land.

I used to go days without seeing or speaking to anyone.
Growing up out in the country solitude becomes a gift.

Now I have four kids and work at home. Sometimes it makes me ****in crazy.
I mean I didn't have a phone for close to ten years.
It's constant chatter.

So usually when I make morning and evening rounds I go alone.
But sometimes I wanna bug the **** out for a week or two.

Ya dig?

At my old job, I'd go all week not talking to anyone and then go to my house 13 miles out of town. Being alone definitely worked for me. If I got bored, I'd step out the back door and go through a box of shells. PARADISE!

Now I live in town and work with six people. Three of them are chatter boxes and I'm the "quiet guy". It's like heaven getting home to an empty house.

However, get a few beers in me around friends and I turn into the chatter box.

all I can get
but I am a father, and have to earn a living

and get drunk and think I need people (female)
then I get drunk ,
and realize I have no social skills
so then I go back to my cave

rinse and repeat

You should set some goals of some sort - just something small.
