I agree -- and I have, in the past, had the really bad tendency of making up for my inclination to be quiet by attaching myself to extreme talkers. I've been practicing being more talkative myself, which is helping screen out those people.

It seems like this stuff hits in waves for me - I have some friends and then all of a sudden I'm not close to any of them anymore - maybe because they moved or I got a new job or whatever.
