For some reason, shy quiet people, especially females, are quick to open up to me. What do I discover? Usually several things:
1. Those quiet people are often profound thinkers. While other people are talking and socializing, they're thinking. They usually excel at abstract thought and have detailed ideas about life and the world. Sometimes that thoughtfulness is compromised by a lack of communication skills.
2. Shy people usually don't say much or socialize much because they don't think they'll be understood and accepted. Oftentimes, they don't feel heard by the people in their lives. And when a true listener does come along, they can really talk your ear off and attach quickly.
3. Shy people often exaggerate the difference between themselves and others. They assume they are weird and don't realize how similar they are to many people.
4. There are two basic types of shy people: those who wish to be more sociable but feel unable to do so, and those who are content as solitary creatures.
5. Shy girls often make loyal girlfriends. Perhaps that is due to their isolated lifestyle or a lack confidence that they can find someone else.
6. Sexually, I've found that shy girls usually like to take it slow at first and rely on the guy to get things started. They rarely initiate but are submissive and compliant.

I'm a quiet person myself & I've found that we're all too often misunderstood.
It depends on the individual, of course.
But I think, more often than not, when a quiet, shy person opens up to you, you discover a friend.

It depends on the person. i am a quiet and shy person, but when once i Really get to know people i open up and they realize i am nice, honest, and sometimes i am fun. But with other people, sometimes they open up and i think they are great, and i love to be around them when they aren't shy, and other people i think are crazy. I once dated a really shy guy, then once he opened up and showed me what he was really like, he was very wierd. He was not as innocent as i thought, and he was into wierd things. So it really depends on the person.

You can discover many things. It all depends on the type of person. This person can be the most boring person on the face of the world. They can be a great and loyal freind. They can have problems in their lives that are so troubling that you wonder how they can keep on living.

their soul. When someone normally shy can really talk to you, openly and freely, they are letting you see the real them, the one they can't express or articulate normally, but who they believe you will understand. They're taking a cahnce on you.
