Oh, interesting....I think people may be misusing a word here (a common problem in our language and culture) instead of saying, SHYNESS is cute, I wonder if we should say COYNESS is cute...hmm....something to chew on here.
True true. So much goes on in an introvert's head and so little comes out that extroverts must learn to get inside there.
Coyness implies playfulness and acting, so it's in the field of human attraction psychology as it is consciously used as an asset for one's personality, rather than a real detracting such as shyness. Nervousness is also not shyness, though you have stated that there is the difficulty in understanding "shyness" with today's language.
Hmm, an interesting statement, "get inside" the introvert's head. Most often when extroverts and introverts do not get along, it is because they lack a common subject or goal. There is also the factor of communication, which is a difficulty for all humans. When in a relationship of any kind, it is a common fellowship that two or more must share first, and second, good communication must be implemented or the fellowship will fall apart. There is also the point to be made how introverts do not always want other people "inside of" their head, as it is often crowded as it is without someone else trying to become part of it.
Indeed. I think we use words wrong sometimes. There are so many different meanings and implications for words that people get confused.
I like to get inside people's heads, helps me understand things better and get along with people. : ) I would agree with that, or when they don't take time to try and understand each other. Communication is a huge deal, I agree! True that, I just feel that if someone doesn't speak much, then I can't help them if I don't know what their thinking.
"Free and released! From hands that, gave us flight! Hands too little to hold on tight! And now we float forever! In and out of sight." Chills can be a good thing.
Oh no, is that poetry? Hm, well, yes. But in this case I feel as if they were a bit ominous.
No, it's from an old movie I doubt anyone's seen called The Little Toaster. Well, nothing I can do in that case. *shrugs*
Oh, I wondered what that strange feeling I got all the time was. It must be....sadness! It's that exact feeling I get when Nexo doesn't come! You have revealed a great mystery to me!!
Don't give in to it. We have a limited supply of tissues.
I don't often cry...I just want to eat and get depressed. XD
Oh, when I'm full I get sleepy so sometimes it helps wind me down. : p Also I forget to eat sometimes and have to snag something late. : p Cereal is tasty. : D
Really? I'm glad!! : D
Not that one, there are so many tests though. I'm a Lotter! XD
ah HA! See Con, it's truth! Nothing like having a tissue flake out on you right when you need it.
No idea why it's relaxing. *shrugs*
I don't like sticking my snot back in my pocket, thank you very much.
I guess the difference is my lifestyle needs hardy. And my allergies factor in.
Forgetting to eat usually isn't a problem for me. Regularly skipping meals isn't unusual for my life and not eating for a day or so hasn't held any problems for me either. There was Saturday night though. After having a so-so lunch, working the Saturday night dinner shift, and not eating any dinner for myself either, I woke-up the next day feeling the consequences of low blood sugar. Thankfully I was able to muster enough strength to eat a little breakfast and soon returned to normal for better hunting through the cupboards. So note to self, at least eat a good lunch or grab some cereal for dinner when working Saturday night.
Human breathing is relaxing, even one's own. When listening to different music, especially slow music, one's heartbeat and breathing often match the tempo. Just hearing another person's breath adds to the presence of that person, and can be comforting. Your case may also involve autonomous sensory meridian response, or ASMR. A sensitivity to human sounds resulting in relaxing and good feelings.
I just get distracted or absorbed in something. : p Low blood sugar is a problem, glad you pulled out of it. :x
Hmm, true. I've never heard of that, sounds like something to look into. Sounds like me though. Do lots of people have ASMR?
I more often prefer to work or write rather than eat. Although cooking is a hobby of mine, eating is not. :P
ASMR is fairly common among people. It's a relaxation/comfort response to many small, isolated sounds. I think it's related to what is observed in "social grooming" in groups of animals.

Most often when a person does not talk much, they are either uninterested. The cause being that they do not feel able to socialize (socialization that introverts are not always interested in, such as movies or talking in large groups, etc.) on the same level as the other person, or they just want to keep to themselves. I feel that the direction of this conversation is slowly changing to the discussion of people who actively do not wish for any socialization, which is an asocial personality, which is in no way to be confused with antisocial personality traits. There are also those who "build walls not keep others out, but to see if anyone cares enough to break them down", which is a kind of coping mechanism.
