I've been pondering it since you replied and I'm absolutely not sure at all. (How's that for a mix?) I mean, am I a Delta type for the easy-come, easy-go, or am I just a really insecure Alpha who'd rather bolt than deal with the hard stuff? because I'm also strongly Beta in many ways, or is that preference for being the power-behind a sign of an undeveloped Delta?
Actually, Type-A and extroversion... hrmm. I dunno. Always makes me think of a favorite quote: "She'd be a lot happier if she wasn't trying so hard to be happy all the time." The Western cultures do see extroversion as a sign of 'health' or 'normality' and right up to mild social anxiety really looking (to this untrained observer) as just strong introversion -- but that's okay, there's drugs for that now! Cripes.
