Being outgoing isn't a requisite for being extroverted, so don't worry about that. I know plenty of IEEs who aren't necessarily the most socially out-going people. Apparently this is a fairly common habit of ENFps, or Ne ego in general I guess.
Being outgoing IS a requirement for being an extrovert (MBTI, more so)
Being outgoing is not a requirement for being an extratim (socionics)
(an extratim is what the IEE is, and that's part of why I like the 3 letter code than 4 letters...)
Anyhow,
I know a few IEEs who don't think themselves a social yet I think she is, because she's so good with people and always doing a lot. But I don't think anything you said makes IEE seem unlikely.

If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.
~an extraverted consciousness is unable to believe in invisible forces.
~a certain mysterious power that may prove terribly fascinating to the extraverted man, for it touches his unconscious.
Actually no it's not, it's a big problem for people who are coming to socionics via MBTI.
I wasn't trying to nitpick you though; I did it just so other people might understand.
I'll buy you a _____ (beverage of choice) next time I get the chance to make up for it, how about that.

yeah I can be very quiet in some situations. Other times, very outgoing. Really depends on my mood. At times I can look like an introvert, especially if I don't like the company or if there is too much Fe or I have to try too hard or am tired. However, I do go out pretty ofen and organize things w/ friends. I also used to be shy, which meant I was very not outgoing. Now that I'm not shy, I'm much more outgoing. I also care less if I don't like someone or if they don't like me, where as I used to think that was a huge deal. IEEs can be quiet, yah.
Hi! I'm an ENFP. :-)
It's a shared trait. I'm just like that.
I think for me how outgoing I am HEAVILY depends on who i am interacting with. If i'm among friends whom i've known for months or years and feel positively about and well accepted by, I can be chatty, bubbly, center of attention, even loud sometimes.
If i'm new somewhere and dont know anyone in a certain environment, I will be quiet quiet, I will mostly prefer to observe until I can assess what kind of people I'm dealing with and how friendly they are. But if I have to speak, I will be VERY softspoken, choose my words carefully, and feel embarrassed often.
If i'm in an environment where I know people are hostile, I will also keep my contributions to a minimum and choose my words very carefully. I will be as diplomatic as possible--try to find the key to getting along with each such person and use that as much as possible in interacting with them, with the express purpose of avoiding confrontation and getting out of the situation relatively unscathed. My philosophy is that if in doubt about how someone will react to something, sometimes it's best to just remain silent (depending on the situation of course).
So, I'm starting to think that people who comment on the various kinds of IEEs out there in terms of more outgoing vs less outgoing, just happen to see IEE's in different sorts of situations. We are fickle people.
Oh, also, like you, I like my me time. I dont mind being alone doing my own thing. Except when I'm lonely, like these days. Even so, being by myself is better than going out socializing with unpleasant negative people (which doesn't exactly help me meet new people when I've just moved somewhere--I admire my dual for being so great at this, actually!).
