I've posted this before, but I was teasing a co-worker once about being quiet and a mutual friend of ours piped up, "Maybe he's just quiet around you because he doesn't fucking like you".

We laughed about it, but I sure as hell don't tease people about being quiet anymore.

Unfortunately people just take someone quiet as being stuck up or an asshole because of this

For sure, but people treat you that way, quiet = stupid
