I work with a guy just like you, and I think that's great. Some people are natural extroverts, and love the interactions and water cooler conversations that come with that personality type.

Just don't drag me into the office just because that's your personal preference. I will be miserable and looking for a new job.

It's not necessarily about introversion and extroversion. I'm a natural introvert, and I also have working at home. I want a strong, clear boundary between work and personal activities. It's not so much about being in an office; it's about being a place that isn't home.
You need a home office for your own sanity, this much is true. I found this out the first year when the kids were out of school. Many others I've talked to also found satisfaction in co-working centers.
