Introverts: Attentiveness from partners?

[charlatan]

One thing I really like is the idea of long distance communication, because it means you can get the emotional connection of feeling you're always plugged into those you care about while sitting in a dark, silent room alone.

I don't really know that I want to feel alone ever, so much as I don't want feeling not alone to involve an excess of stimulation/energy from me. It's more of a physical thing.

I'm very openly affectionate myself. Just kind of low energy--at least when stressed, which is often--, prone to thinking a lot, and so on.

I think I need a partner who is independent and busy (enough, not all the time), just like I am. A bit of attention every day, but it doesn't have to be a lot. However, when I spend time in person with my partner, I am always very affectionate and loving, and I desire the same in return.
