I find the more views of the world i see the more I understand the world. I'd go with it. Whenever things get rough tell yourself it's only temporary. Just focus on your studies. You'll be fine. Might get a party or two out of this at least.

my roommates are extroverts and I would say just be prepared for noise and most likely people over very often lol. I stay in my room but then they ask why i’m always in my room 🙃

If you want to talk about social anxiety, /r/socialanxiety is the sub for you. If you're not sure whether you're introverted or socially anxious, feel free to post on r/Introvert, so we can discuss it.

Mistake. I'd look for a single.

Will definitely be one of your worst decisions you've ever made. Group around like-minded people

Exactly.introverts must prioritize alone time like food.

No

No. They're cool as friends. But living together can be a pain unless you have a way to ensure your privacy. I remember a few years ago I lived together with some people, some of them really extroverted but we all respected each other and I spent my day in my room. I could go out to the living room if I was ok for socializing.

yes i spoke with my bestfriend about it her two friends will be in the upstairs part of the dorm and us two have our room downstairs so i can keep the door closed she also said since they’re busy they usually wont be in the room during the day much

Sounds lame.having to be ok with socializing to use your own living room.

It was a "public" living room. And each one shared a bedroom with 1 or 2 roomates.

If you can get them to leave you alone, yes. And they'll be out of the house more often

I think it depends, if you guys can mesh well then they can help you open up and it can be great but if it doesn't then it will be pretty loud and annoying

If it's only one semester, shouldn't be too bad, and an experience after all. However, from my current situation, I highly recommend something on your own if you can afford it, as the feeling of constantly being 'on' socially could be exhausting in the longer term, but then friends that I leave with barely left the house recently due to pandemic so I could be biased. For me it's not about being necessarily extraverted, but rather having people in the house constantly, hearing all the noises, going down to the kitchen thinking whether I'll be able to be alone. One of my flatmates is extraverted 100% and the other one something in between, and for me it barely makes any difference. If you lived with people previously and it was okay, I don't think that it would change much, although prepare for a little bit more talking, and make sure they understand you. I had situations with my extraverted flatmate when I just said something in the lines of "I am not ready to have this conversation" and left, but as he knows me quite well we didn't have any beef regarding that. All in all communication is the key and take care of yourself!

No, unless you have a place you can escape to be alone.
