Classic introvert, have to have the aisle seat in theatres, but not on planes (getting jostled is negative drain.) Time to first words in a group is proportional to the square of the size of the crowd with each member of the crowd having a value of .1 (well known) to 1 (unknown.)
There is a gifted/perfectionism factor mixed into this, where one would like to know all of the mores in operation, appropriate role, and such. Also good to know what roles each member of a functional group fulfills to identify which role would be best to function as.
There is also the factor of giving total attention to the person/persons/group.
