Would you rather date someone who was the life of the party - but couldn't stop running their mouth, and just had to speak their mind all the time?
Or someone who didn't say much - but occasionally could participate in conversations that interested them - but generally was content with long silences, and mainly talked when necessary.
Let's say both were equally 'intellectual' - the former wasn't necessarily less intellectual or thoughtful or intelligent, or the latter.
Sometimes I think an extroverted lady might bring me 'out of my shell' a bit, but I wouldn't mind someone who was quite quiet, as long as they weren't boring and when they had something to say, it was worthwhile, not mindless chatter. Not to say the former always talked mindless drivel or small talk.
P.S. 'neither' or 'something in between' is not an acceptable answer. This is a binary question!
I would much rather be with someone who talked too much, although it could get annoying by your description. I can't stand when people clam up and don't talk, even if they are shy, at least a smile and say a few words. I'm somewhere in the middle and can go either way, but would much rather be around a talkative person, unless I'm tired, then shut up
I'm not shy, but i'm not overly boisterous. I tend to stand back and observe and make my move where I see fit. But I would be OK with a woman that enjoys being the life of the party. If that's what she enjoys I'm certainly not going to stand in her way.
I'm in the zip it catagory. I don't like to talk much either. I guess it's because I don't like noise overall.
I am going on the assumption of "talking when necessary" means stating opinion or furthering a conversation when she has something to add, and not just nodding her head or doing onthing at all when she disagrees or has something to add to the current statements being made.
This is a hard one. I am a chatterbox. But two chatterboxes? Might be too much. But it is working out fine for my parents, they are headed into 40 years of marriage.
A girl that talk too little = I get to talk about how awesome I am
Both sound good to me!
