+636 It's easy to assume that the quiet people are the "deep, intellectual ones", because all of their stupid thoughts are kept to themselves. It's very admirable, amirite?

That was a very deep and insightful comment. Thank you for sharing your opinion, I found it very thought-provoking.

It was actually a pretty stupid thought. Good thing I kept it to myself cool

Now you have to pretend you never had it so no one knows and you keep up the intellectual persona

I don't assume that quiet people are deep and intellectual. I assume that they're too afraid to socialize.

I hate that. I offten keep quiet, not because I'm afraid to speak up, or talk to people, but because I have nothing to say at the time. People that meet me for the first time always assume I'm shy, but that's not the case. When, and if I have something to say, I'll say it. That's just me though...

Exactly the same way.

While I //am// somewhat nervous at the idea of socializing, that's not the reason I'm quiet. I'm quiet because I don't have anything to say, and I don't like to socialize because I'm not going to have anything to say and it just gets awkward.

@Skylar that's exactly how it is for me. People always ask me why I'm quiet, and I just tell them I won't talk if I don't have anything to say.

Well... it's true. I never speak up in class unless I know I'm 100% correct (which is hardly ever).

I tend to think the quiet ones are the "serial killers and shit" ...

My business teacher was afraid the quiet kid in our class was going to become a serial killer and kill all of his teachers except her, because she would be his partner in crime my business teacher was weird

I don't understand the admirable part of this post.

i think OP thinks quiet people are just stupid,or are grateful they have the decency to keep stupid thoughts to themselves

Well, I think all people think stupid things sometimes, but it is admirable to catch yourself before blurting out whatever is on your mind to everyone. Like that quote, better to keep your mouth shut and have people think you're an idiot than open it and remove all doubt

I don't think it's admirable. I think there's some virtue in being willing to take risks and say things that might be wrong, as long as you're brave enough to fess up to and correct your mistake afterward.

Maybe i just read this wrong or something, but im pretty sure there is a difference between being deep and just not saying stupid things
