Co-worker asked me if I had siblings, and are they like me. What's that mean?

I asked what do you mean like me?
I just replied they are different.
I asked her about her siblings. Said she has one sister and that she, herself, was the outgoing one.

People try to make quiet/reserved/shy a bad thing. Is it really?

I keep getting that.
Guess the lesson is, don't take things personal.

yes. i used to get that a lot too. "Are your siblings as weird as yourself?" and with a snicker too...don't take it personally. it's their ignorance, let them bathe in it.

@gobacktoyourroomandstudy I mean, she wasn't being rude when she asked, but to say " I'm the outgoing one, and my sister is the shy one" makes it seem like your saying something is wrong with me being myself]
