Oh yay, this is a really heartening comment, thank you! I'm really really pleased to know you like my blog, and you're right, I am always happy (and not freaked out) when I get comments from people I'd not previously been connected to.
When you say you love that extroverts do social heavy-lifting, it reads to me as if you said "I love people with big appetites, they eat up all the tasty food so I don't have to eat as much". For me socializing is almost purely enjoyable, it's not heavy lifting at all! But it's good to have all kinds of different people around. Another extrovert trait is that I love meeting people who are very different from me, definitely including introverts.
I wonder if wearing a more sartorial and less religious veil would help you? Perhaps from a historical period when respectable women tended to cover or partially cover their faces? Though I suspect it might attract unwanted attention if your clothing were anachronistic, instead of getting people to leave you alone more.
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
