If you're being extremely quiet what does it mean?

For me it usually means that I'm thinking or that I'm sad about something.

It means I'm being me.

More than one person has assumed I'm angry/sad/tired/etc because I'm very naturally quiet.

But I'm not. I'm just doing something more interesting.

Quiet is my normal state of being. I "talk" a lot online, but in person, not so much.

If I am quiet, it usually means I am alone and have nobody to talk to or I am sleeping.
I am not loud but I like to talk.

It usually means I've very, very angry, sad or tired. (If I'm just a little angry, sad, or tired I'm usually talking about it.
)

It could mean I'm deep in thought or it could mean I'm daydreaming or it could mean I'm sad or it could mean I'm biting my tongue. Or...It may not mean much of anything -- I'm not naturally loud or boisterous.

As odd as it sounds, I have a few different "quiet modes"

if is a cold quiet (with a bit of glares and pointly not answering questions with more words then need be) I'm very angry.

If its a warm quiet (answering any quesitons I'm asked, but not adding in my own) I'm content, and usually deep in thought

I am naturally quiet, but I think its fairly easy to see which mode I'm in. I'm not big on bring up something I'm upset about until I have my emotions firmly in hand
