Is it right? Silent persons are not like more talkative persons.

It matters what they much speak about. Some people are jsut keep speaking but don't have any meaning, they want to speak and not bother how others feel about and think of it. But there are people speak much and but it give messages, information, and ideas. They are actual worth to speak and they are always rememberd for their sevice where as the people just deliver 'junk' also will get rememberef for their horrible TALKS. Also, there a few category that people won't talk much but they conveys much information in their short words. People who are in the top level categories normally won't much speak but they notify things. Even fewe managers and some partners in our office never speak much but their short 2-3 mts. of discussion make others to work and discuss for the whole day...

Hi dear, I am not a talkative person, I must admit that. But I have no hatred towards the talkative people. Sometimes I really enjoy such people. They really can spread a positive energy. It is not easy to be pleasant always and talk much. I think those people are lucky, even if they have problems they like to talk and talk...

I think it depends on the situation. I can be very talkative myself, and have been known to dominate conversations, but I try to allow others to talk as well, I like to inspire interesting conversation. And it can be fun to be around lively conversationalists, as long as everyone can have a go. But if the conversation becomes oppressive, so that each time I try to speak I am ignored, or dismissed, then another's talkativeness becomes unpleasant. In these situations, I will try and leave without too much embarassment. I don't think talkativeness is good if it's designed to make others - especially quieter, more sensitive, more timid people- uncomfortable. If it's loud, intimidating, it's not good. And it can cause people to become quiet and resentful. Even frightened. Or angry.

I think you can be silent one day and talkative another. For me it is a matter of mood : I have days where I like to talk, and days where I am a soundproof wall. It depends also of people around. If I am in a talkative day, I don't like to be called to order, and I can immediately welcome this with a witty remark that can be unpleasant, though, getting older, I try to be wiser and to keep my tongue locked in my mouth.

It depends on what the person talks about. If the person is talkative in a boastful way, that is just a total turn off. But there are those like my father who's talkative in a funny way and people loved him.

Well, for me it depends on my mood. If i feel a bit grouchy at that time when someone is talking in a loud voice as if he owns the place, then i would surely hush him. But if i am in a good mood, maybe i will join the talking too, because i could be talkative at times.

I always thought that I was very talkative...but then I met my husband and he talks even more than I do. Sometimes I find it a little annoying especially when I am trying to concetrate on something. It is hard for me to finish the things that I do when he is around, because he talks and talks and he interrupts me all the time. Sometimes I tell him to be quiet for a moment while I finish the things that I am doing, and then he says: "Okay, sure"... and 5 seconds later he talks again! He simply can't keep quiet, but I know that is one of the things that people sometimes find annoying about me, too.

I think that you really need a nice mix of quiet people and talkative people in your life to keep you happy. I myself tend to be one of those people that is more of a quiet person, but I find that a lot of my friends are more talkative people. One of the things that I really like about people that are more quiet is the fact that I think that they are taking everything in and that is the main reason that they are quiet people. Those people that tend to be more talkative are the kind of people that you are not able to share any secrets in your life with.

Yes, there are people who are talkative. Sometimes it really annoys us to hear if a person is talking too much, for me it's alright if he/she knows what he/she is talking about. I'm not much of a talker but I'm a good listener especially if the person I'm listening with is talking with sense.

Hmm..how to say??? I like to talk and I like to be quiet as well~ If people talk rubbish, I will avoid them. Social small talk which is like trivial things we always found in people's wall in facebook- I don't like it so much~ It's not really depends on my mood either. Even if I don't want to talk but when others talk and the subject interest me then there is possibility I will join the conversation...I don't know how to say it but since I can be either way I don't get mad when people like to talk too much or less~ Accommodate the less and ignore if it get too much~(^^) I don't know if you get what I mean~~~hehe....

I think it is not true. People who talk a lot like to be heard and be in the centre of all attention. So they need people around them who are quit/silent otherwise you can't hear them speak.

hi surekharathi!i am very silent in nature but it doesn't mean that i don't like the talkative person.Moreover i think talkative person are less harmful than the silent person because one can easily understand,judge and justify the talkative person by helping him/her to be aware of his every step that going ahead.

I think Yes. They are introvert, but have great idea sometime.

i also think thet way i think thet i am also quiet person and do not talk to much becouse i do not want to be some leader talking person in my society . but i do not think thet i am differnet from person who talk to much but i have some shame when talk wit persons who i do not know but with my friends i talk like every other person .

yes, every person is different. you have to get to know them to see what type of person they are. you then can see if you need to talk or remain silent.
