Is being quiet and reserved worth it in the long run? 10 points best answer!?

Question

Well i'm in gr.11 now and i'm a really quiet respectful guy, i guess you could say shy too, when i talk to people im usually quiet and im not the type of person who talks alot about themselves or shows off. I could say girls think im attractive and i'm pretty smart i have a 93% average and just quiet in class and stuff. But i've noticed people who are loud obnoxious and ignorant have alot more fun with themselves and always have girlfriends go to parties etc. I just wonder if its worth it acting the way that i do, i notice i spend most of my time bored out of my mind at home reading or taking things apart or cleaning my gun lol, i feel more combfotable this way and nicer but i think of it almost as wasting my life, people who used to be my friends who act loud and obnoxouis just seem to have a better life, is being respectful worth it?

Answer 1

well, i think you should be you.

you can still be the intelligent and respectful guy you are now but just go out and have fun.

you don't have to go out to multiple parties to have a fun-filled life. go with a group of your friends to a football game or a school sport game. you don't have to like the sport, just as long as your with friends, you'll get rallied up and in the spirit, too.

and when you, you won't regret it because all that matters is that your with your friends.

and when you go out with your friends, other people start noticing and possibly having the girls notice, too. :]

in my opinion, i think guys who are shy, but intelligent are kinda cute.

so the bottom line is, go out with friends. you don't have to go to major parties every night or weekend, just sometimes. you don't want to be distracted away from schoolwork because I'm pretty sure girls don't like dumb guys.

hope i helped.

p.s. take pictures, too. these memories will last much longer and you've got something to look back on.  :]
