Ok... In my defence. I don't actually go "why are you so quiet", especially since considering that I don't even speak English in my day-to-day life. I assumed the quotation part was not a definite quote, because I don't think I have ever in my life actually asked that from anyone. But more of the spirit of the question.

Unlike my poorly written english form might show. I am fairly good with words when it comes to speaking. And I like to listen to people. I'm the confessor of random strangers. Sometimes I go to a bar and I get to hear people's life stories. At work I have heard worries from random co-workers. And I have always listened.

When ever I have asked anyone anything like this, it has always lead to something fruitful and good. By my experience quiet people have lot to say but not enough people to listen. I have never had someone quiet who I have struck up a conversation with end in a negative way. Hell often I have gotten very good social relationships with.

So by my experience, asking that has only resulted in good things. And you know what... I'm not letting random strangers online who send vile hatefulshit to my inboc convince me otherwise.

I have collected so many stories of human experiences and I cherish every single one of them, and wish to know the story of every human being. And almost always it has started because someone was quiet.
