Keeping your words inside.

I don't shut up when I should and never say anything (or say the wrong thing) when I should.
Mostly, when anything is politically/religiously related, I won't shut up and end up offending most of the group. Luckily, my friends are used to me and just let me rant without having any hard feelings (and since they mostly have the opposite views from me, that's saying something about how awesome my friends are).
However, when I find out things like the guy my best friend is completely in love with and sleeping with is technically actually dating another friend (who we never see anymore because she lives so far away and goes to a different school), I don't tell anyone concerned but wait for them to figure it out on their own...guilt guilt guilt In my defense, I knew my bf wouldn't believe it unless she learned on her own...

I sometimes wonder why I can't shut up when I should, and why I can't talk when I should...if that made any sense at all 😛
But maybe my slight (slight in my opinion) antisocialness is because I am too social 😀

Most of the Time.
When I want to say something, I usually overthink it in my mind, and see what kind of consequences my words would cause. I think about the reactions to my words. I over-analyze it to see if they have any undertones that would lead to a misunderstanding. I would usually say the "right things" ONLY when I'm in the calm state of mind.
Otherwise, when I'm angry or sad or panicked, I would probably say something on a whim and I'd deeply regret because now the consequences are limitless. -_-;
i cant shut up. in general and when i should be quiet. oh well. its better that way! 😀

i say what i think when i'm with my friend but i can't say anything when a (beautyfull)girl speak to me or speak to someone near me, i'm just looking at her with my mouth half-open and some drool on my face.
So it depend on the circumstance, i think.

The speed of light is faster than the speed of sound, which is why sometimes people look bright until they start talking.
for some reason, i tend to be rude towards my friends a little too often lol but i pretty much tell the truth most of the time.
i voted sometimes, since i try not to hurt people(at least my friends) 🤨

Most of the time, especially when I'm in a new place, surrounded by strangers, sorta like starting school and getting a class full of unknown people, or people you've only seen but never talked to. I can barely start to open up at the end of the year, but besides that I'm mostly always alone, I even tend to never raise my hand so the teacher won't pick on me.
Although it sometimes happens even when I'm around my friends. I guess I feel that they wouldn't understand my thoughts, and I've tried experimenting it and its true. They end up taking me for a random person, but maybe I am a super random person so I'm okay with it. I guess I end up having problems shutting myself up. XD

That's practically the same as me. Sometimes I try to act more social when I'm with new people but it usually doesn't turn out too well. And it's almost the same with my friends too. I feel like I'm not really their friend sometimes.

It depends on the person I guess.
Sometimes I do randomly blurt out sentences by mistake, even more often when I'm in my own comfort zone.
But overall, I keep the words to myself. Especially the unpleasant ones. ;P People don't tend to notice, which is totally great.

Exactly. It's like you've been alienated, right?

Sometimes.
I tend to be a bit blunt. (Okay...a LOT blunt.)
But I do know when to shut up in a situation.
But when I'm around people I don't know, I seem like a socially awkward person because I'm as quiet as a rock. 🤣

If I know that my saying something can actually help, then I might say somethin... Otherwise I say nothing.

I just keep my thoughts for myself when on professional situations, talking with a patients or the staff

i really depends on the situation...cause perhaps uttering one single useless word can make the situation a lot more wrong...and you can also use a good comment to brighten up the situation...
so its better to use the right words on the right time... 😀 🙂

I'd say I do that very often.
Although it depends on the situation.
Random people, people I'm only professionally friendly with, just people I've met:
The nasty thoughts and opinions I have on people...
If they were to be verbalized...
The truth can only be spoken to people one can trust...
Really... I'm just not the type to "pierce people with the truth", since they often would not accept it, and it would just ruin a perfectly fine passive relationship.
And who knows, my opinion might be wrong. Who am I to judge? I just keep those things to myself.
If we share a close friendship/I know the person enough, things are usually different.
Then I'm more easy to get a true opinion of.
But of course, here comes the part of me that "doesn't like to hurt people"...
I try to be as direct as I can, but then, as less direct as possible, not to hurt the person...
If it's not a personal issue, let's say a discussion about a film/part of history/book. Then I always speak my mind. (most of the time)...
I tend to be very chatty in situations like that.
It depends on a lot of things, and I'm busy ordering my piles of books right now. 😀
Hrodulf and Bjornolfr, you will not be forgotten.
