Are you talkative and very open?....or not

It really depends on who I'm with and the situation. When with friends, I'm talkative and very open. When with strangers, I tend to analyze them first before talking. Some strangers cannot be trusted. Also, at work, I need to be able to talk a lot, so there's no room for being bashful. In a party full of strangers, I would not talk to you unless you talked to me first.

I am an introverted person. I have always been shy. I am not usually the first to open a conversation specially in the midst of strangers. I am more of a listener in a conversation and would once in awhile utter some words. But I can be open to my friends or to people I am very much comfortable with.

A few years ago I was not a very talkative person. I would not go out of my way to converse with others because I was kind of shy and kept to myself. This all went out the door when I started working at a bar. At a bar you cannot be shy at all. It really brought me out of my shell, and I'm sure my husband thinks that sometimes its created a monster lol. But in all seriousness it made me start conversing with people, and reaching out to people. I no longer work there, but has taught me to branch out to people, and to not be afraid of who I am. It gave me a lot of self confidence and all in all made me become a talkative person instead of this shy girl who kept to herself all the time.

hello Lady, I am the kind of person who is talkative and open but only with my friends and family i take this as a positive attitude of mine there are some people who is talkative in a non sense manner (i think it's not me) i am very vocal and straight to the point person . My bestfriend is my opposite she is shy, don't talk too much but she also have lot of friends talking is one way of communication but not a basis to have lot of friends i rather have one or two at least i am sure they are true Happy Mylotting

we have the same character, but not that silent even if i met someone I don't know I still try my best to talk to him/her, getting to know them.

I am almost the same as you, silent but alert at my environment. As what they say..."There is peace in silence". But mind you there is also a saying, and i qoute " Your best friend is your worst enemy ". I am an objective fellow, i do enter into conversations to people be it friends or not, and gave my point of views on the topics discussed objectively not subjectively. I am an attentive person and a good listener too.

I am the opposite I love to talk but I also love to listen. What dont means that you have a lot of friends. I am very open for almost everything some people cant handle that and are ashamed about me. I dont like to go away with someone who has to be ashamed of me. So my friends are very reduced But I know they are true friends. Here on my lot I have the oportunity to have friend and talk a lot even that my english is not that good. Did you ever thought why it is that you are so silent? I would really like to know greetings Goth

I could be talkative or absolute quiet, it really depends on who I am talking to. I usually am very quiet when I am dealing with somebody that I am not close with or somebody that I don't like obviously. If I talk to my sister, my mom or some of my fclose friends, we can have endless topic and I can be very talkative.

I used to be shy but with age and help from the people I love, I have learned to say what I want now. You must have seen it at my posts. I think that it is important that you learn to accept you as you are. The rest comes out easily. I don´t mean you´ll ne a cheerleader, but your personalitly, quiet as it is, will flourish and you´ll say what you need to say. Small talk means nothing. Talk is important when you have something to say that really matters. Take care!

Hello lady, I am not exactly the silent types. I mean i am, but i am mostly silent friends who i am not really close to, or when friends are with other friend of theirs' . I am quite close to a certain few friends of mine and i am not shy talking about anything with them. I take time to befriend someone i meet for the first time but that doesn't mean i am not friendly at all. I just need time to open up to others, and when i do i can get quite talkative to them. [i]Get me drunk and you can see how foul mouthed i can get.

Well for me when I am around my friends I see myself as being just that. Very talkative and open. Unfortunately though when I am around strangers I usually dont behave like that. I usually have to get to know a person first I naturally start to behave that way. But I am also talkative and open to my relatives and neighbours. I am definitely not like you. I seem to be the quite opposite. Are you a shy person? I wonder because you really seem that way like you are a shy person.

I'm a quiet type of person,I don't talk that much but I'm friendly though.I talk with friends and likes to listen to them. But I don't talk as much they are. But when it comes to business then I often express myself quiet well then.. I enjoy being quiet and listen to people around, observe and learn..lol.. Happy myLotting!

I am talkative since I was in grade school up to my highschool. When I was in my college I seem to be distant to some of my friends because I don't know if I have the right words to day. A good speaker is also a good listener. Start opening yourself little by little, it feels great to share something if we are not feeling well inside. Take your time.

If I have to talk I talk, if I do not have to talk I shut up. No need to be more on either of the sides. You just need to know when you have to talk. Do not bother to over talk, its a waste of time. I do not like people which talk only to be put in account for.

I am the irrepressible talker. And relatives always wait for my stories, even the little ones. Talking is my way of telling people what's in my mind, how I perceive situations, and what are the varying opinions that could help us look at the issues. But when in the company of friends, I allow them to talk first. I listen and assess if my sixty peso worth of talk is still necessary.

You see, there are many varities of people in this world.Until you gain some experience in moving with the society (people)it needs lot of patience to understand them first. Only on gaining some experience you gain confidence in either talking or keeping silent. In your case - I feel you have not come up boldly to talk with people. Try that..And only on practice you can gain the confidence.It may take some time - but try. This is the only way you can open your mouth with either your friends or relatives.

I'm an introvert (though not entirely), so I sometimes need to just keep quiet. As for small talk, I'm awful at it and try to avoid it as much as possible. But I can be quite talkative and excitable at times, especially with close friends. It depends a lot on my mood. The thing is that I get tired easily by too much socialising and if I don't get some time on my own to recharge my batteries, I become rather listless (and bad company). It annoys me to no end when I'm in a noisy group and people are just pressing me to talk when I'd rather just go read a book in some dark corner.

In this respect,I am similar to you.I am not good at talking specially before a big crowd.I think that It has something to do with that I am introversion.Some people are good talker.when they meet stranger,they always feel like old friend,what is more,the more the people the more their excitement.

Well, you are not alone there lady1993. I am one very shy person. I am more into writing than talking except of course, if I am comfortable with you already. I've been fighting off my shyness ever since I was a kid because It's kind of a hindrance to meeting new people and starting up a conversation with them. I have many friends though, and most of them are the exact opposite of me and I enjoy being with them a lot. Try not to be scared. Remember this always, they won't bite you and I'm sure they also have their fears and inhibitions.

I envy you for being a listener rather than an outspoken person, we need people who are just there to listen. I am referring to you hope you're a good listener, I am a talker my self I teach so partly I lecture and I facilitate.
