wallflower

Someone who isn't necessarily shy, but never really tells you a lot about themselves. They observe almost everything and listen to everything you have to say without criticizing or judging. These people are often the most sincere, kind, and wonderfully interesting people, yet fail to be attractive to the opposite sex for some reason.

I thought that she was mean and stand-offish at first, but then I got to know her and found out that she's really a somewhat shy, beautiful soul. She's a bit of a wallflower if you ask me.

wallflower

someone, usually in high school, who sees everything, knows everything, but does not say a word. they are not loners. they are introvertive, meaning they are shy and have a social disease. they cannot handle having someone pay attention to them even though they crave it as much as everyone else. wallflowers are just phased in, and faded into the backround.

Wallflower

A person, normally in high school, who knows/sees everything that goes on around them, but doesn't say a word about them. They go unnoticed as if they don't belong. Yet if you were to talk to them, you could tell them every single thing and they would not judge you, not one bit.

He's a wallflower. You see things, you keep quiet about them. And you understand.

wallflower

Perennial plant native to southern Europe, bearing fragrant yellow and orange flowers. The name is derived from the fact that the plant, when naturalized to a region, is often found growing out of the nooks and crannies in an old wall, or a cliff. The natural tendency for this plant to separate itself from the other denizens of a formal garden, and grow in isolated locations, doubtless led to the use of the term "wallflower" to describe an anti-social, or shy individual, who lingers in the background, against the wall, as it were, at social occasions.

The heady fragrance of wallflowers growing on the embankment wafted up to me.

wallflower

Somebody in the background. Not attention-getting at first glance. Like part of the wallpaper.

That group of girls in the corner looks like wallflowers.
