i got called out for this shyt at a dinner once. back in hs, it was the end of the year so all the athletes go to a dinner. the manager of our bball team was taking shots at everyone on the team and when it got to me she said,
'and flexta, idk about him, he never talks. he must be planning to take over the world'

i laughed it off cause everyone was fukin staring at me but on the inside im like :snoop: bytch you never even tried to talk to me foh with that :pacspit:

i think people are intimidated by quiet people. im lucky im good looking or i'd be fukked :whoo:

I used to eat while reading a book or watching a video on YouTube, minding my own business...

Suddenly...

Person: ":gladbron:Shaktus! Hey, can I sit here?"

Me: "I was just (insert solitary activity here) and grabbing a bite, but you can sit here... How you been? "

Person: "Me? Well, I was.... (proceeds to talk about ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for 20 minutes)"

Me: :beli::francis::snoop:

My first few months at my job had my white coworkers with a permanent :dahell: face.

They were all like "are you always this reserved?"

Now at work, I think I've stressed this before. You have to be approachable. You're just making yourself replaceable if they find someone with your skills... And they happen to be friendly too. Outside of work, cool. I can be who I want.

As a quiet person, I can relate. My whole life it's been, "why are you so quiet?"

Um, I dunno??? I would rather deal with those types of questions than sit next to another quiet person tho. There's nothing more awkward than that.

My high school experience was filled with these types of friendships. Dudes who were quiet like me and it was sort of a bond over that. But as time goes on people usually get more comfortable and those mfers always ended up annoying me lol.
