Being as I am one, no I don't. I'm also shy as well. However, I do understand from personal experience that people don't like people who are quiet, it's problematic for them (for what ever reason). So, I've dealt with all the negativity and all the other things that come with being a quiet person. I just prefer to listen and observe situations and people, I think if you listen and pay attention you gain more insight about things. I can't change who I am and I know what I do need to work on, that's not one the things. If I have something worthwhile to say, I will but I'm not just going to talk for the sake of talking or because that's what people think I should do, what would be the point in that?

People like people who are agreeable. People that talk a lot are in some ways social facilitors. They give reasons for people to connect and even if they are hashing about another person, they can be agreeable to additional input.
People that are quiet can be agreeable. Or they can sort of sit in a corner thinking they are better than everyone else. It depends on if the quiet person is radiating judgement (my thoughts are better than yours) or if they are genuinely quiet (but no less engaged).

To me, I think it's perfectly normal to be silent in a room next to your partner while you are both doing your own thing over your phones. But I'd say overall that there should be at least a brief time of talking to check in with each other. Like, how was your day? That's good or oh no, I'm sorry to hear that type of small talk then going back in the zone after that with the idea too of making a time during the week for no phones as well, just time spent together, maybe watching a movie or with a roommate going shopping for example

I am one of the quiet ones. I speak when someone asks me something, when in the company of those I trust, or when I can chip into the conversation, otherwise I have nothing to say nor do I feel like saying anything.
People love to call the quiet ones "boring, weird, the next mass shooter, arrogant, etc." Just because we are not talking your ear off doesn't mean that's who we are. Knock it the fuck off with those labels.

Quiet person here, so allow me to chime in-
No, it's not weird at all. Most of us just prefer not to talk unless we have a reason to. Or they're usually shy, introverted, or antisocial. Whatever the case, I don't judge them. Perhaps they're just happier being left alone and not talking. Usually quiet people will talk if something interests them, or they feel they need to talk.
Otherwise, just leave them be. I have the below image hanging in my office at work and point to it anytime someone asks me why I'm so quiet: it instantly shuts them up! LOL

Because I am one of them. We aren’t weird, just misunderstood. A lot of the time, we don’t talk because there is either nothing worth saying, or nobody around that is worth using up our time talking to.

I find people who talk too much as being weirder. Especially if they don't know what they are talking about which happens more than the talkers think

I don't find it weird I actually admire people who are more quiet. It just gets annoying and draining after a while if I'm doing most of the talking.

No , that is mostly how I am , many people need to learn the noble art of minding their own business. Better than spouting inane verbal diarrhea constantly.

It's their personality. People read too much meaning into every little thing. Leave them alone!

No, I'm quiet type but I open up once I meet someone new
Being a quiet person myself I can say that the sense of entitlement to information makes them suspicious, and not knowing is an easy leap for humans to hate.

People that run their damn mouth are very annoying. Speak what needs to be said or something worthy to talk about and learn from.

Weird? No. But not for me. I prefer a convo going between the both of us

Depends how quiet. Some people can just be shy at first, but if they’re not coming out of their shell then that’s just them but we may not be threat close as I enjoy conversations.

Only those who never try to strike up a conversation or who don't greet.
