That's pretty annoying too.
I've had more than a few people tell me that they think I am full of my self.
I ask them why, and they say because I don't talk a lot.
I don't think I get that logic.

neither do i.

but hey, at least i'm not alone

I get that all the time. Even when i am talking.. and I think I'm doing well socailizing I still get that " your quiet".
I guess its one of thoughs personality traits that will always be with me.
Im quiet sometimes.. and not quiet other times. Depends on who im with and if I know them well. Im not quiet but "balanced"

I've been yelled at for talking, here's what they shouted:
"What are you doing?! You don't talk, you never talk! You never say anything, why are you talking?!" ...and so on.

I'm not mute, dammit.

I hate that too. Though what I hate the most about being kind of quiet and more shy than most is that I tend to get lost in though, and someone almost always interrupts me saying "why don't you smile?" or "a pretty girl like you should be smiling", or something equally retarded.

If I wanted to smile I would, okay fuckwads?

being told to smile is my all time least favorite thing ever. people who tell me to smile go instantly on the shit list.

I get that all the time too. But then I have to remind them I'm not a pretty girl, but yet, a really ugly guy.

But yeah, that shit gets on my nerves. I keep to myself most of the time, and people always want to give me a hard time about it. My mom asks why I never smile, my boss asks why I never talk. Hell, the folks I played EverQuest with would ask why I never said anything.

I've got better things to do than chat people up and blow sunshine up their asses.

I usually respond to that with "maybe you're just not interesting enough to talk to..."

It always makes me feel a socially inept loser for not being able/wanting to talk to people or enter into conversations.

ha, i hate that too. usually people that talk the most with lots of nothing to say, are the ones who usually say that sort of thing.

and i really hate it if i'm wearing a jacket or long-sleeves or something, and it's even a slight bit hot outside, and people come up to me and say "aren't you hot in that?" i want to punch those people in the face. "oh god yes, i am hot. and i needed you to remind me of it. thank god you came along or i would have melted! and i'm too socially inept to know how to take off my clothes when it gets hot without someone else's involvement! mind your own fucking business and worry about whether or not you are personally warm or not!"

guh.... people!

I'll talk if I have something to say, but if I'm not talking to you it's probably for the fact that I find you boring.

Like when a person doesn't want to fuck another person because they find them unattractive.

Once, I was wearing a long sleeved top, and some guy came up to me and asked me if I was hot. Then he said I should smile more, and said people thought I was a snob because I didn't talk much.

He woke up in a sack under my house with his feet and arms sawn off. I put them in the bag with him, actually - quite a nice touch, and handy if he got desperate for food. We live quite far out in the country - I doubt anybody's gonna bother to look for him out here. I feed him once a day, and occasionally I scrape his shit out of the bag. You know, when I feel like it.

His hair's getting pretty long now... might be time to cut it again, but the sound he makes when I open up the bag and he sees those scissors in my hand.... Frankly, it actually kinda scares me.

I wonder if he's hot down there - maybe I should ask... although I doubt he'd see the irony.

asking people why they're so quiet --- IT'S NOT WORTH THE RISK!
