I realize that many extroverts or people who like to talk don't like shy people. and besides, they see shy people as weak. it's funny because shy people also apparently don't like people who love to talk, xdd why is there such contempt for shy people? I've also read that shy people are selfish. what do you think of that? I can't see any selfishness in shy people. shy people may be insecure, nervous or embarrassed, but I can't see anything selfish. |
| I don't understand why someone would hate a shy person JUST because they are shy and for no other reason. I think everyone should be liked as long as they aren't awful people |

| Neutral, but leaning on not liking them. I look at it as a math problem. The opportunities to find a common ground with a non-shy person are GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO the opportunities with a shy person. I don't judge shy people, but if I'm trying to be friends with you, you have to at least respond to my effort for us to get somewhere beyond acquaintances. |
| Well, that's like answering if I like myself or not lol. However, I never felt hostility towards me for being like that. Maybe I'm lucky, who knows. In fact two of my closest friends are extroverted and we're perfectly alright. One time, one of them 'noted' my passiveness -or lack of assertiveness- and that but we talked about it and that's all, no problem. Maybe the key to success it's just respect the boundaries. |
| Well I'm an introvert and I like myself. |

| i like them ? im not displeased by shy people but i dont rly view or would treat them differently from people who arent shy, idk theyre cool i guess i dont rly have an opinion on this lol |
| Honestly I would rather be introverted than extroverted. Being extroverted has caused me more harm than good. I honestly much rather be by myself and not be bothered by other people, as much as I try to be a recluse it doesn't ever work. I don't prefer either over the other though, just too extroverted people tend to be annoying IMO |
| Doesn’t really matter to me, as long as we can get along, you’re okay with me. |
 |
| shy people are okay as long as theyre not boring. being untalkative is boring but with most shy people once theyre comfortable around you they have weird and interesting shit to say. |
 |
| I'm an extrovert. Why the heck would I hate a shy/introverted person? Why would I reduce someone to just this. They are a person with feelings after all and there is more to them than just their way of acting around others. |

| I've never seen any shy people tbh, it's like I'm the only introverted one in my highschool class. But I would be friends with anyone who shares the same struggles as mine. |

| i don't dislike them. being a shy person, i kinda can relate to them so i don't mind them. i'll try to talk to them but if they're mega shy, then i'd probably just ignore them or something. |
 |
| I'm introverted, but I have no problem striking up conversations with strangers who appear to be 40 or older. On the other hand, I never speak to young people, regardless of whether they're introverted or not. I simply hate young people. |
 |
| I don't mind them, I like having some alone time for myself too but if I'm with others I would prefer them to be more extroverted since awkward silence makes me anxious to find something to talk about which I'm not always good at. |
| meh. To me it doesn't make a difference as long as you aren't an asshole lol (but I do think "good-natured assholes" exist xD) I don't care if you're introverted, extroverted or ambiverted. just that we connect. I'm not very talkative IRL, and I find beauty in just peace and quiet. |

| I don't mind as I'm quite shy myself. Sometimes people appear snobby but are just shy, and that is when it is difficult to differentiate. |
| I'm pretty sure I'm just an ambivert confused as an introvert because of lots of anxiety. I'm more introverted than extroverted, but the definition of ambivert makes a lot more sense. It's difficult to talk to untalkative people as I'm not a conversation starter type of person, so I'd prefer people that can communicate quite a bit, so, the occasional introvert and ambiverts and extroverts. I can do pretty well with extroverts, I think. I won't be as extroverted as them when I'm around them, but I can definitely up my confidence with them and will respond whenever they talk to me, and over time I'd be trying to start conversations instead of them. I really cherish my time with people so I'd prefer them to not get socially drained out as quickly. Theme parks, cinemas, cafes, they all sound really fun if that person's engaging very often with me, otherwise it'd be pretty silent. |

| well, as a socially anxious extrovert... shy people are usually very easy to approach! and from personal experience? they make for the best friends as well! when i was in middle school i met a shy girl who i befriended after some time. it was hard to get close at first, but she was always very kind and caring and eventually she opened up a little more. it turns out she was raised into believing her voice didn't matter, so she just kinda gave up on making friends after a few years of feeling ignored. whether it was intentional or not, i'm not sure, but she always made it a point to tell me that shy people are talkative as well at times, if not even more talkative than most extroverts. she has social anxiety and, as mentioned above, i do as well. we just coped with it in different ways. unfortunately we haven't talked in a while, and it's been YEARS since middle school, but i do think about her every now and again. i hope she's doing alright. |
| Shy people like myself at work anyway do not really respond much which causes contempt or neutrality from extroverts. I like shy people as I am shy myself (while not online or at home). I do not mind extroverts though I doubt much at work like me much. Lol |
 |
| doesnt really matter,, if theyre a good person then they r but if not i would obviously stay far. |
 |
| shy people are pretty chill. i like them. |
