Why do some people get more quiet as they get older?
They are much wiser & content with life… It is much wiser to listen than to be heard (especially all the time)! They don’t feel the need to respond to everything, to always be heard, to prove their point-of-view, or have time to debate & justify… Peace within, comfort & confidence in silence.
Why is it difficult to deal with quiet people?
Quiet people tend to keep to themselves. Most quiet people are introverted. They love the solitude and having to be alone .But that doesn’t mean that they love to keep quiet all the time. They can be the most talkative people on earth when they are with the right people and when they are comfortable with that certain person.It is not difficult to deal with quiet people. That’s just the way some are when they were born and some became quiet under certain circumstances and the environment they grew up in. You just have to view how they act and why they act the way they are from their perspective. Do your research.Quiet people are quite sensitive and more aware of their surroundings than others. They perceive things more quickly than other people, that’s why they remain quiet because they do not want to go against a certain opinion or argument. They would always follow the most extroverted person and willingly agree to what that extroverted person would say. Quiet people may seem difficult and closed off at the world but they are more in tune with their surroundings. They love to listen rather than give the initiative to talk.Don’t try to change someone to be something they are not. Quiet people may be difficult to deal with at first but if it is in a comfortable setting they would be the most open people and talkative people you can ever meet.
Do people become introverts eventually, or are they born like that?
I think the important thing here is to clarify what it means to be an introvert vs extrovert.What introversion is not:Being shyBeing quietBeing lonelyHaving poor social skillsWhat introversion is:Getting more energy from being alone than being with people.What extroversion is not:Being sociableBeing loudHaving lots of friendsHaving the best social skillsWhat extroversion is:Getting more energy from being with people than being alone.What this means is that you can have an introvert with amazing social skills who’s the life of the party. It’s just that after the party, they have to go spend some time on their own to ‘recharge’. You can have an extrovert who is completely shy at the party and has no social skills, but still gets more energy from being at the party than the introvert.Are people born introverts / extroverts ?Yes.This should be easier to accept given that our definition here has nothing to do with things like social skills. However, it’s not black and white. Introversion vs Extroversion is a spectrum and everyone has a varying amount of either.
Why do quiet people always get upset when you tease them for being so shy and quiet?
Because we don’t want to talk damn it!.I’ve been the target of this my whole life. There will be a circle of people talking and I’ll get sucked into it. I always want to fit in but I can’t think of anything to say. The whole time I’m arguing with myself in my head.“Say some thing damn it! You’re acting weird. Do you think anyone notices? How does everyone else come up with clever topics? Where did they learn so much about cars? Why don’t I know anything? I’ll just wait until it’s over”Then, in the middle of the thoughts about how I don’t fit in, someone decides to say “Hey, why don’t you ever talk?” And everyone else looks right at me. This damn near causes a panic attack. I never like being the center of attention and that’s what I am right now, all because some ass hole pointed my awkwardness out.Now I’m standing their with 10 people staring at me waiting for me to talk. I’m on the spot and start having trouble breathing. I can’t think of any response other than “I dont know” which can lead to a whole discussion about me and why I never talk.If saying “I don’t know” satisfies the asker and they go back to talking about something else with the group, I’ll be where I started, only now people know that I’m there and not talking. I’ll feel even more nervous and just want to disappear.I’ve never fit in and I know it. I also know most of this feeling is in my head, but it won’t go away. I know there are other people with anxiety problems in big groups.The reason doesn’t matter in the end, if someone isn’t talking, then they don’t want to talk. Leave them alone. If they want to talk, they will. If you try to force them, you’re only making their personal problem aware to more people. Then they get mad.
How come if your quiet, people think your stuck up?
Im 14, im smart, and im pretty and this girl at school always tells me that im stuck up and conceited. I dont know why. I talk to people and im nice. I dont bother anybody. Ive been shy all my life but that doesnt mean im stuck up. The girl told me that everybody thinks your stuck up but i dont think its everybody. Only her stupid ugly friends. I know im not stuck up, just because im quiet, its doesnt make any sense.
