Love of manipulating people
Refusal to admit fault/responsibility (never my fault syndrome.)
I think it's a stretch to say that Nodoka is a private person (especially if that conclusion hinges on living alone for more than a decade)
and I'm really curious as to how you rationalized Ranma and Nodoka as being introverts.
For instance, Ranma's honor is really no less questionable than Genma's, and not so much in the way of there being different reasons; it's more a matter of degree, really, and not all necessarily less.

And Nodoka seems to have spent those years living alone, literally living mostly ALONE. She doesn´t seek out social situations or company. Like Ranma, unlike Genma.
Example, could you imagine Ranma dragging any of the male cast in his age with him to a nightclub or a bar like Genma does with Soun? Ranma is more likely to choose a nice piece of roof to relax on.
The difference lies in that Ranma CARES about being honorable, Genma doesn´t.
Ranma may not be all that great at BEING honorable, but he WANTS to be on an instictive level.
