Susan Cain’s “Quiet”: Time for a “Free Trait Agreement?: A deal between introverts and extroverts?

A Free Trait Agreement acknowledges that we’ll each act of character some of the time-in exchange for being ourselves the rest of the time. It’s a Free Trait Agreement when a wife wants to go out every Saturday night and a husband who wants to relax work out a schedule: half the time we’ll go out, and half the time we’ll stay home. It’s a Free Trait Agreement when you attend your extroverted best friend’s wedding shower, engagement party and bachelorette party, but she understands when you skip  out on the three day’s worth of group activities leading up to the wedding itself.”
