Are you the type of person that loves to tell your whole life story to your friends, or a person who just listens to your friend's stories and never talk?i'm not saying that you're mute,what i mean you just don't like sharing them your story or what you think. feel free to share your opinions.. :)

Neither i am talkative nor reserved. I am more free to share about my personal life here in mylot than my real life. Mylot friends are more trustworthy and supportive to me than my friends of real life. Better can say that i spend almost lonely life in my real life. I have no closed friends in real life. Have a nice time.

In general I`m the talkative type, but there are certain subjects thta I consider something intimate and don`t talk about them. Still, I love telling stories. After all, I`m a writer in my native language.

I gues bieng a writer requires more ideas to talk about..I am also a writer that's why I really consider myself as talkative.. But sometimes I prefer to be quiet for a while because I can think more when that happens.

Hi there emdjay23! Me, when I first meet the person i don't talk to them about my stories. But once my siblings talk to the person I start telling some stories. But when my friend is talking then I just keep quiet until I can tell something related to the story.

I am talkative I love to talk about a lot of different topics and when my friends and I are together we share a lot of stories from our lives. I don't tell everyone private things about me, but my close friends know me well. I like to talk, but I also like to listen to my friends stories and their experiences. They often ask me for advice and I try to help them if I can. At the moment I don't have any close friends from own island, but I still talk to my old friends a lot and when we talk on the phone we can talk for hours.

I am person who will just talk talk and talk when I meet people. I have nothing to hide so I speak whatever comes to my mind. This might be because most of the time I am alone and no one to talk to. So, when I meet people I have so much to talk to and empty my thoughts. have a good day

yeah, sometimes it feels good to share what's on your mind to those people who you just met especially when there's no one to talk to and there's no friends around. Thanks!

I love to talk a lot of stuff with my friends, but I do have some reservations as well. It's just that I think that there are things best left unsaid especially if it is something that I have yet to resolve. I am more of a listener though than a talker.

Well I guess I am more of a talker, because some of my friends were younger than me. But I also believe in what you've said that there are some things that must be left untold. I guess it would be safe for you, specially now a days you can always encounter gossips..

I suppose it is who I am around that this depends on. I am more of a listener really. I am very private and separate my professional and personal life very clearly.

I am always the listener when it comes to talking in person. People come to me a lot for advice. I come here with my situations in life. I vent or get advice here. I like it better than talking face to face about my problems...

It depends on who I am with. I have certain friends who seem very easy to tell stories to. What I mean is, whenever I am with them I seem to become the talker than the listener. I also have certain friends who seem to be the talkers than the listeners. Anyway, I enjoy both kinds of friends. It is just that when I want to talk, I seek the company of the listeners.

May be Im kind of the 2nd type. I like to listen my friends whenever they talk about their childhood, vacation, love life, or when they have some secret or problems :) I will only tell about myself if they ask, never tell them 1st from myself. It made people think that I have close personality, but it's not true cos I will tell them if they ask me or want to know about me. Im kind of person who will give what people ask from me as long as I have or I could afford to give it.

Oh I am the talker! In fact as amusing as I think I am haha I am sure I on occasion border on darn right annoying:) But yeah seriously I do enjoy telling stories and such and usually enjoy the centre of attention. With that said however I am also a good listener and usually provide my best attempt at having something useful or at the very least funny in most situations.

LOL. I think after myspace, facebook, twitter, everyone has gotten even the slightest bit self-absorbed to want to tell their 'life story'. I can count with my right hand on how many people that I love to tell my whole life story to whilst the others not so much. Tell stories with meaning and lessons . Then again there is the occasional , "Oh my gosh. I got my nails done today and..." haha. Then there are some people, that you would just not like to talk to, especially your life stories because whatever it is, THEIR LIFE STORY IS ALWAYS BETTER. Do you know anyone like this?

I think that I understand what you mean, I am a very reserved type of person, and I do not like to tell the world, my things, specially if too personal, but I think that we all need a friend to rely on, is no good to keep all things to ourselves.
