As you get older.

So that's how extroversion, extroversion changes, it doesn't rise.

Agreeableness goes up in almost everybody.

Well, I mean, of course, when your gregariousness goes down, if you actually don't have people around you, then you're going to get lonely.

What will happen is that people who have a good family life will just lock into their families as they get older.

Yeah, that's not great.

What is that?

Well, part of it is just you can't stand new people.

The new sound we're all rocking.

I mean, he will become less gregarious and he's just less light.

Gregarious people actually want to have a conversation about something they've never talked about with somebody they didn't know.

That's what they want to do.

That's a pretty rare thing.

Is that a small group?

Well, that's if you're really, really extroverted.

But gregariousness is always zero to one thing.

It just means more or less of that.

More or less, right?

And if you're naturally introverted, when you get older, you're going to be more likely to be shut in.

Because if you naturally have low gregariousness and it goes down, you're not going to want to meet anybody.
