Exactly this, my dad’s an introvert but is the most charismatic person I know. He does great with people, but is the last to arrive and the first to leave since he finds it so draining. He “recharges” when he’s by himself.
Introvert doesn’t mean shy or socially anxious. I regularly tell people to shut the fuck up if they’re in my space being annoying.

That’s kinda what I do too. I acknowledge it as an effort that needs to be managed and have strategies to recharge afterwards.
I don’t hate being around people but it does take a lot of energy.
I’m the opposite. I’m an extrovert but really shy.
Oh, does that make him MajorEffort? Or GeneralEffort?
He’s actually AdmiralEffort.
I did that for a while, but got shit for it everytime and just stopped going out because it wasn’t worth the hassle.
