Sometimes people are real quiet as a calculated measure.You learn many more useful things that way and get a rep as a good listner.As an added bonus if you are the anxious,worried type you look cool and collected simply by shutting up. What bums me out is that sometimes I get quiet because I'm trying to process how I feel about what's been said,to not speak too hastily and make an ass of myself and people assume I'm mad or something.That bums me out when it happerns because when I get quiet it's usually because I'm anxious about saying or doing the right thing.
