But I always though if your quiet and soft spoken, your not asertive. And if your loud and talkative, your very asertive. I don't know, thats what I thought. -- Posted by xRaggamuffinx at 6:06 pm on Mar. 25, 2008 sometimes quiet people can be -more- assertive. making a point quietly and seriously is very assertive. -- Posted by miserysbusiness at 6:06 pm on Mar. 25, 2008 Yes -- Posted by torissexy at 6:09 pm on Mar. 25, 2008 yes you cann -- Posted by lilac at 6:12 pm on Mar. 25, 2008 I see.

How though? Isn't it true that quiet and sensitive people usually think negatively and often get there feelings hurt easily? They get picked on too. Whereas soemone who is not quiet and sensitive, they can assert themselves and are liked. People respect them and care for them instead of non asserters. I was reading about this. Is it true? I'm learning how to be assertive. I'm sick and tired of people trying to take advantage of me. When I think about it, it bothers me. So is any of the stuff I mentioned here true or false? -- Posted by blahbitch78656 at 12:09 pm on April 24, 2008 yes. its all how u present urself
