Just wanted to know about how you guys are when it comes to this.
Some answers may be similar, because I suck at describing things. OTL;;; Just try to answer as close as how you are, and comments elaborating your choice are ALWAYS appreciated. It may not look like it, but I'm kinda shy. |D Or I get really intimidated by others. I get so nervous that I can't seem to gather the courage to talk to people. So it makes me very happy when people approach me, because that's a green light for me to relax around them. Other times, I'm the one who approaches people. I love making new friends though, it's just my sporadic shyness/friendliness. *flops around* |

* Quiet at first but becomes loud after I warm up to someone.
I'm not too loud, I don't think. My voice is quite small. I have heaps of friends, but I still don't like going out and whatnot. Online I'm more talkative, but that doesn't mean I'm not shy when first talking to someone =u=  |

tealgoddess Is an uke who stole your seme
I agree. I'm almost the same as you when it comes to talking, except that IRL, I'm sometimes don't like to talk because I'm afraid my voice is too loud and annoying XD

Somewhere between,
"Very shy both IRL and online" "Quiet at first but becomes loud after I warm up" and "I try to be very friendly, but I get intimidated at times" I admit that I'm a lurker online and off. I always listen into other people's conversations, but I don't have the courage to join in if it's interesting. Online I have trouble getting the courage to make the first move and talk to someone, like you, if someone talks to me first I can relax and become talkative (actually, I get really excited and feel special and giddy XD). I normally become louder as I meet people, but not around everyone. There are a lot of people that intimidate me very easily, but I try to be nice to them anyway. Haha.. don't I like talking about myself? XD |

Waaa~ Paper! T U T I understand where you're coming from. We're the same XD
 I try not to lurk as much as I used to, though...I kinda suck at making conversation, so I clam up really fast when people don't do more talking on their part. Then talk dies down and I get the feeling that I'm boring them, then I go back into shy mode. |D I feel special and giddy too though when people make the move in conversation. Do I make sense? :0 Don't worry, I like talking about myself too |D |

Ahh me too, me too! That's why I'm here, on MB, to try and become better at not lurking (but it's not working).
That's exactly the same with me. I'm the worst at making/keeping conversations. So, when I try to make friends I want to keep the conversation going, I start asking them questions. And.. that just ends up awkwardly lol. Of course you make sense~ it's the same with me! Ahh.. that's interesting! I haven't met someone like you (or me?) before.

I start asking questions to keep conversation going too. XD But sometimes, I spout something stupid like "The weather is abnormally abnormal today", which is REALLY BAD SMALL TALK. XD;;;
you're so awesome *cling*

paper Is a Peeping Tom who will kick one's ass and take one's name
Ahh, I know I know! I always start off with "How was your day?" because I don't know what else to say.. and of course, they just reply with "good" and thus, we're stuck! WORST SMALL TALK
 Have you heard of the comedian "Dylan Moran"? He has a small joke about conversations and how people always get stuck after "Hello". He's pretty funny. YOU, my friend, are AWESOMER! -clings to you tighter-

Avice Is a weeaboo in denial who... nyo~ron
I am pretty much the same, that's the reason why I always avoid big boards and chat's in general
 Mostly I end up talking about myself to keep the conversation alive but I dislike it a lot because it makes me look egocentric. It's the same with asking questions. The weird thing is that I have no problem with talking to older ppl but get shy among kids my age >_< because I don't share their interest and so we never have a topic Is Dylan Moran a good comedian? |

Pocket-Rainbow Is a bananaphone who glomps random people
*feels better* it's nice to know I'm not the only one! I'm really really bad at making conversation, and it usually ends up awkward DX, I tend to become a lot more outgoing and loudas I get to learn more about some people, I try to be nice to everyone (especially those who intimidate me XD)
I've actually subscribed here so that I can maybe stop myself from lurking too much lol. |
|
paper Is a Peeping Tom who will kick one's ass and take one's name
Oh, I hate it when it ends up awkward (because it tends to happen most of the time), but occasionally you meet a person who can keep up the conversation despite how bad it's started... those people save my life, haha.
Good idea! I hope it works out well for you~ |

Pup Is a cheeky fellow who breathes down your neck
Well if like with friends then I just talk to them until I get okay with the other person and then I get so talkative xD But without friends or someone I know I just sit back and meep every once in a while til' I become a blabber-mouth ;O Though online I just talk forever and to anybody that is acceptable :]

* Quiet at first but becomes loud after I warm up to someone.--> copypasta from nonononi
when i meet someone i act quite 5 mins XD and i start talking. I like jokes and laughin' I have a normal voice and im more talkitive at real life becuz my english is poor and it makes trouble at internets. |

alexdabalex is now 21. (*´∀｀)
I'm usually quiet around people I don't know, but after a while of analyzing the situation or probably just sizing them out, I become talkative (when I like the person.) Hahaha. OMG. judgmental -shot-
But when I'm online it's different. I love meeting people. Because they can't judge me by the way I look... like what the people I meet in school do !@#$$^%^#%. (☆｀Д´)/ |

beeswarm17 Is a ninja who faked his own death.
I totally understand what you mean. I don't usually like to talk to someone until I get a handle on their personality first, and then I can get really chatty. XD
And when you're online, you can say just about whatever you like because the other person can't tell if your humor or way of talking matches your RL appearance. |

yun Is an uke who is in denial
Haha it's ok! It's totally ok to be shy baww xDD *HUG SQUEEZE* I'll be an idiot for the both of us ufufu~
LOL it takes me AGES to take down my barrier I have with new people; I think I need time to get to know what the person's like so I know how to treat them. Is that like analysing? I'm too stupid for something like that though...@n@ haha anyways, I wish I was more out going. I feel uneasy with strangers but that's what friends start out as right?  Like how I met you and all~ x3Eh but once I do open up, I say whatever embarrassing nonsense and can be quite loud XD; you're my friend when you have to say STFU!! < LOL. XD

T U T
Waaa~ Yun, you're so nice. I wanna be an idiot too though. |D *your idiot partner LOL*I feel the same with the whole barrier thing, though it takes a shorter time for me. I think that as long as I'm comfortable with someone, I'll start opening up. My talkativeness conforms to how the other person acts, though, so I need to get to know a person first to see how I should act around them. (Which makes me feel stupid because I should just be myself... OTL;;;) LOL People know I'm comfortable around them when I start making jokes about going to bed with their moms. XD;;; I really should be sleeping now. It's 5:20 and the sun's rising.

They'll be all "Duuude, my mom won't take me out today because she's all tired and shit." And I'll say "Well she should be, we were at it all night."

bernoully is a satellite weapons platform who ion-cannons emo people for the lulz
Not too shy and not too outgoing describes it well, haha. It's a balance I've achieved these days~
I have to admit, I still warm up to people easily with not too much self-defense, but nowadays I've learnt to protect myself a bit more. Sometimes, what happens when you become too friendly with people... opinions clash, and worse case, they manipulate you. I have scars to remind myself of all the people I can't face again. I prefer to be friendly and positive, nevertheless! XD |

Aww, I'm sorry you met such horrible people.
But it's good you keep friendly C: Because you're so awesome, Bernie baby

tsukita-sun is a hypocrite who loves mushy scenes.
"Quiet at first but becomes loud after I warm up to someone."
Or so it seems...at least I know I'm not the one who approaches people IRL, mostly I let them come to me, and if I deem them harmless, then I relax. =x Because often times those who approach me are annoying and simply there to ruin my life for their pitiful reasons. But when it's annoying people, I'm not shy, actually I'd be annoyed or angry. XD;; But to friendly people, I really am shy.  It's as if someone stuck something in my throat and cause my jaw to swing, because I wouldn't be able to speak much...I suppose this is why even my own friends think I'm a bit reserved?Though I hardly am when I'm online, quite strange, isn't it? 8D |

Azuness Is a dominant seme who tops Kappa and Karyu ♥
I've got my crazy and quiet moods, but usually I'm in between.
I'm a very cold and calculating person IRL and online. I control the situation of how i meet a person and who is going to be my friend 100 %. I have a system of talking to people to test if they would be a good friend before I actually consider them a friend. People say I appear carefree and happy go lucky, cuz when I'm with a real friend I'm loud and obnoxious, but then after people get to know me they say I'm a bitch and apathetic. XD; The point is, I really don't give a shit about a lot of people, buuuuuut honestly I like to get to know people =w=; It just takes a while? |

LOL you seem so evil. I like that. |D I think I'm like that too to a degree, like I'd be all nice and see into what they are and when we're friends I bring out myself-- they get surprised but they can't do anything now but accept me coz I'm their friend now AHAHAohshit it's like a trap.
*is not creepy I swear*>u< you'd be a fun person to get to know to~
