the kid that is too nervous to ask questions because they'll overthink everything/be nervous about how someone will react. also, the kid that some
people say has "bad intentions" or is depressed.
they overthink too many things and hate when
people say "oh he talks" or anything similar to that.
also, they don't like to talk with other
people because they'll either stammer over their words because they're anxious/overthink
normal scenarios and believe the worst.
they do not
like being socially awkward because it can limit them from future jobs/
normal conversations that they want to have.
they in fact do not know the definite reason why they're quiet, and when
people ask why they're quiet, they shrug their shoulders or say "
IDK".
quiet kids are typically smart and they may also have a friend(s) that they awkwardly (not rudely) talk to and wish they could have more friends and be more verbal but their nervousness and amount of overthinking make it appear impossible. the quiet kid could be the person who has encountered when a person is passing out papers and they say
"(quiet kid's name) is in this class? he never talks." they also try to speak loud enough for everyone to hear but wind up being too quiet.
