Quiet Guys
 

I really do not like quiet guys, because they are very hard to talk to. I went out with one a couple of years back, and I tried to get him to talk, but he was quiet throughtout the date. BTW, the date is a blind date. So, so you like quiet guys?

You talk like a strange combination of Rain Man and Dr. Seuss.

I mean, do you like quiet guys? Stupid typo.

I actually went out on a date last weekend with a guy who is real quiet and shy (which is pretty much the same thing). He actually talked on the date but he is really quiet at work and even when I go talk to him at work he is really shy- he is one of those smart mechanical engineers so all he thinks about while he is at work is work. But besides that he is really sweet and interesting. I like quiet guys if you can get them to open up.. There are some taht won't open up and I don't like that. All in all they are just like regular guys

I dated a quiet guy once. At first it drove me nuts because he would want to just be silent when I wanted to talk. But once I got used to it, it was rather nice. We would just sit together, listening to some music and it was very nice. :)

I'd date a quiet guy again now that I know how to work with it.

Personally, I am not into guys my self!;)

NO!!

I am a talker and I hate feeling like I have to carry the convo all the time!!!

Sometimes, the most amazing people are just a little shy, but once they open up to you you'll find something really wonderful! My boyfriend is one of those people... he's pretty quiet until he gets to know you better. We've been dating for almost a year now, and I wouldn't trade him for the world!

Yes.

--Shhhhh!

I like a quiet guy if he cultivates a sense of mystery about himself. Otherwise I would feel like he was apathetic/socially inept. There's a fine line to walk.

I used to think that I couldn't date quiet guys because I'm loud and obnoxious. Then I met my fiance. He's very quiet, and I've found that we balance each other out. Yeah, he'll complain that I talk too much sometimes (particularly when I strike up random conversations with people in the supermarket checkout line), but he always makes sure to let me know that he misses it when I'm not there. Of course, get a little beer in him and he'll be the most annoying, loud, drunk bastard in the world!



Edited about a month later because I'm too slow to realize that I can't spell.

I had a date once with this guy would was so shy and so quiet it was painful. We went out to dinner and I carried the conversation the whole night. He would answer yes or no toquestions he could otherwise he didn't say anything. The most he said all night was when he ordered his meal.

I'm a pretty quiet person myself but I managed to do all the talking. It was one of the worst dates I'd been on.
needless to say I didn't see him again.

You sound like me.

It's so cute when they are shy! I think it is adorable, as long as they are not too shy, like to the point of being dysfunctional. I talk a lot, but it's okay - sometimes shy guys really like to listen.

I'm one of those smart mechanical engineers! And I'm not quiet at all, I'm a loud ass, crazy pike!

You sure about that one?

My boyfriend is a "quiet guy", except when he's talking to me :p When more than 2 people are in a room he's clams up and doesn't say a peep. Many of my friends and his fraternity bro's don't believe me when I tell him how talkative he really is.

Just to be clear. I'm not into guys. And yes I'm sure.

I just wanted to comment as a "quiet guy". Females often mistake me for quiet because I am not a fan of small talk. Not that "big' talk is so important but the small irrelevant stuff boars me.

You ever thought maybe sometimes you are talking too much?

I've sat back on several dates and let a female just talk and talk.

At first it's bearable. But after eleven straight minutes you wanna hand a chic a nice big cup of Shut Up. Being talkative is a good thing if you are a speaker and getting paid.

If you are on a date there should be a conversation. Not an interrogation nor a wholesale purging of personal trangressions and secrets or a recount of the weeks events. There is so much more to share about who you are and what you like.

Someone once told me you should listen twice as much as you speak. That's why you have two ears and one mouth.

If you wanna get a guy talking ask him about some things he finds value in. Most guys, generally aren't gonna be all chatty chatty, unless they are trying to sell something in order to get something. Most times the Na Na. We'll talk for that.

A good conversation is an ebb and flow. Not a one way stream of speech.

On the other hand, if it was a blind date. Maybe he didn't think you were too cute. I've been set up with some 'gremlins' and I didn't really wanna share a whole lot with any of them. It was hard enough gettin the meal down while avoiding eye contact.

laidbackfella- we wouldn't make a very good couple :p

We would be quite a couple if you could respect "the look"

I actually do know when to shut up, believe it or not. Sometimes I ramble and I get that "feeling" that I should just stop. Like right now...

:D

I guess you could say Im a quiet guy. Quiet guys just dont like to say anything unless spoken to. I think its because we're very observational, I notice everything... Something good about quiet guys is that they won't say anything stupid and regret it!

...Im quiet until I get some liquor in me....

See and we didn't even need "the look"

Now can you do that while the game is on?

As long as the game includes fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and some okra... I'm hungry!

So I'd have to cook for quietude?

That might not be a bad deal.

Oh, you don't have to cook to get me to shut up... not a bad idea now that you mention it, though...

*in my very bestest Homer voice*

DOH!!

hehehe

you walked right into that one! :D
