Why in the world should a person who is "usually more open to new situations and dangerous environments" necessarily have the other features that Jung would categorize under the tag "extrovert"?
And why would a person who usually "thinks rather than acting" be an "introvert"?
Where did Jung take the freedom to make those connections/correlations? |
You really should be looking at Myer-Briggs' Type Indicator (which is also built on Jung's work).
If you get familiar with it, you may see that those who have an active social life are those whose inherent personality traits predispose them to seeking out an active social life. Eg the four classes of people under the broad heading of "Extroverted Sensors" are probably most naturally inclined to interaction in a nightclub kind of setting.
Others have personality traits that predispose them to other things. We're all different.
I think people should respect their own individuality. Don't fall into the trap of trying to conform to someone one's, or even society's, ideas of how much of a social life one is supposed to have.
