For me i just like being quiet sometimes, i don't care whether its a sign of strength or weakness. See its does not matter whether you are loud or quiet, as long as you know what you are doing. Knowing what you are doing is all the strength you need. |

PrimadonnaO: Quiet people don't have talk because, a good percentage of the people out there lack comprehension, talking to them or expressing how you feel makes no difference. I am a introverted quiet person, if you see me take a stand with my siblings or mum, you will be shocked, but when I see some stranger behavior rude I just don't care enough to have a conversation. It's not worth it, I just ignore, and no its doesn't build up because I don't care about the person, I won't even remember him in the next 5 minutes. Anger, love, feelings are connected, if you don't mind, it won't matter. 1 Like |

Being quiet makes you very unpredictable because people don't know your next line of action as you don't talk too much |

Amarahly:Sometimes is good to just let things slide and just walk away. To some it's a sign of weakness on your part but it's actually maturity on your part and by doing so you will heap hot feiry coals on their head. If assuming you act on Impulse or anger and things go very wrong, you will have regrets later on. Just let it go and have rest of mind at night. |

Being quiet might be a sign of strength to u but outwardly its a sign of weakness cos it opens u up to all kinds of hostilities, misdemeanor and unkind acts, is wiser to show outward strength cos the world we live in doesn't care if u are quiet or a gentleman or not, it would Bleep u up! It would deal ruthlessly with u, till u learn how to bend steel! I used to be like u b4, felt that being quiet, and introvert was the best it kept u out of trouble, but no, it puts u out there as a soft target even people that where going to mind their business on sighting u would make u their business and would use u as a joke! So even if u re quiet, wear a mask in public and when u get home take it off! 2 Likes |

Being quiet is both a weakness and strength, you should learn how to transit between the two, being quiet doesn't mean you shouldn't stand up for yourself and being quiet sometimes is a biggest strength. I know this cuz I'm a quite guy, tho i talk when I'm with guys i vibe with, for my neighborhood I no dey vibe with anyone just normal chat when necessary, with this you will earn people respect, and maybe sometimes people will find it hard to you� 1 Like |

Its strength but sometimes you follow it up with madness especially when people want to take you for a ride like in my place of some people if you are trying to create room for peace they will think you afraid for such people is madness for madness. 1 Like |

IamYourNeighbor: It depends, being quiet can be weak in certain scenarios and very strong in certain scenarios. Also depends on the reason ure being quiet. Sometimes being quiet is due to locked up emotions and thoughts which if not let out properly or neutralized Can be a problem. |

Still waters run deep. Quietness can be either.... I do not take chances with quiet people. No doubt... some are weak.... while some are like volcanoes..... quiet but can suddenly explode. |
