I'm a quiet person, too. It's ok to be that way, sometimes it makes people think you are a good listener. If you are in situations where you have to talk to a bunch of people, just have a repertoire of questions memorized that you can ask people and really listen to their answers which can bring up more questions for you to ask. People love to talk about themselves. I ask people where they are from, what kind of work they do, do they have children, boys or girls, stuff like that. Or I compliment them on their hair, cloths, shoes etc. But trust me, I'd rather just be at home and be my quiet self. I crave quietness so just accept yourself as you are. Just cause you're quiet doesn't mean you aren't as important as anyone else. It's the variety that makes the world go round!

I don't think you are to quite. Being shy is not a bad thing. No one really ever knows the right thing say. If you want to talk more do it. Try getting into clubs or sports. You meet people with the same interest it makes it easier to talk about stuff. Just start off with a common interest and build from there. And I am sure you act just fine. Don't worry about it to much. If someone has a problem with the way you act that is their problem not yours. As long as you are not breaking the law. Just be yourself. I have heard and Know it to be very true. "That you wouldn't worry how much other people thought about you if you knew how seldom they did" Well take care of yourself. And I am sure you have other great qualities.

You remind me of myself. I'm very quiet, and I've always been shy. I'm guessing you're young, and this MIGHT change as you get older. I'm not saying it will, but there's a good chance of it.

For starters, I'm guessing you're self-conscious. Otherwise, you wouldn't worry about saying the wrong thing or wondering how to act. You have to remind yourself that you're not perfect.

When people are around you IF they don't know you, the same thing is going on in their head. They're thinking 'What if I say the wrong thing, and she doesn't like me?' It's part of being human, and we all wonder WHAT to say at times.

I think you just freak yourself out too much. Calm down, and realize that no one is judging you. You don't have to seem perfect to someone, and being human means making mistakes.

I hope this helped you! Just relax, and be yourself. Say what you feel, and open up to people.

You are not alone. Millions of people around the world face the same problem day in and day out. The solution is to not worry too much and think about the world. What i am trying to say is that many people waste time uselessly, thinking what others will say, and that is what holds them back. Think about it, if you dont express yourself, how will YOU know if you said the right thing. Even if you didn't, it is not the end of this world. You learn by experience. So keep your head up and DO NOT be afriad to speak out. Trust me, it won't kill you.

try to be yourself! if that doesnt work then think of things that people like to talk about, find a interest that people like just like u like make a club that people likes that u like!, or when people are talking about things that u kno add something in that they might want to know! don't be just standing there when somebody calls u names or something! stand up to them and then you'll be noticed! i have had these experiences when i'm too shy but soon like in a few weeks i make soooo much friends because i did the same exact things i have said! but the most important thing to do is be yourself everyday! anyway good luck!

be yourself, the reasons that u r so quite might be because that u dont know anyone , or u r just really shy, and nervous, so when u talk things come out not the way u want it to be, so just be casual, think of something interesting or something that people talk about and go from there. GOOD LUCK

Just relax, start small, maybe the night before going to a social event write a few things down that you can talk about. Anything funny that happened to you, music groups you like, tv, anything but the whether. Just smile and ask how they are doing.

Just be yourself. It is OK to be quiet. However, if you have something that you would like to say, make sure you work up the courage to say it. But, don't talk just to be talking. I happen to find quiet girls very appealing.

You are just like me!
But I guess older. I'm just quiet because I want to get my schoolwork done. 4th grade schoolwork. All I hear is my two friends talking. Jesse and Madison. But I have some tips.


Who cares if you are so quiet? It is your personality, and its just who you are. If you would like to change, read paragrapgh 3.


Start by chatting to your friends a bit more. Call some friends on the phone and before calling, write down some interesting subjects to talk about.


So have fun, be yourself and live your life!~*Alyssa*~
