Chatty, I'm new here, but I don't think you are selfish. I'm a part Sanguine Personality so I get energized around people, but I need and depend on my alone time to also recharge. I actually made a decision last year to allienate myself from all activities that I ccould so that I could finally concentrate on my own writing and speaking which had been sadly neglected. It took a while, but I'm certainly seeing and knowing I made the right decision to exclude myself for a time. I'm feeling more vibrant and on-target now than I have in a long time. I'd been so busy for so long consumed by activities that I didn't have time to focus on me. Sometimes the "me" gets put last and you have to go find "it" again.
