Why does this always happen?

I consider myself to be a nice person overall but also a quiet person. I just really don't have much to say and usually prefer being alone. But for some reason I think I come across as very approachable, so people are nice to me, and you know, I'm polite to them and everything, if they want to talk to me I'll talk, but for some reason I always get the vibe that they're disappointed with me, like they want me to say more. And I just don't have a lot to say. And they really don't give me any openings either, they just get disappointed. I think its me because it happens with 90% of the people that I meet. It makes me feel guilty a lot of the time.

You sound like you lack of self confidence DARE to be yourself you don't have to be ''nice'' 24/7. You should dare to have your own opinions DARE to disagree with others.. also to be able to be open about stuff say how you feel and shit it doens't always have to be politically correct.. you don't always have to be afraid about offending people.. and if you do well it's their problem ,,!,,  haha

Just be yourself.  Don't change who you are to make people less "dissapointed"

I know what you're saying, but I am just a naturally quiet person, but "myself" is a quiet, nice, polite person. I'm just not the loud type. I'm not criticizing anyone who is but its just not me. Makes it a hell of a lot harder to make friends.

Attempt to say a little more, you are bound to have more to say than you think, plus it doesn't have to be related to what they have been saying, once that conversation is finished, you can start up a completely new one that you know you'll be able to hold on for a while.

Is there any reason why you are like this? After reading your post, I feel like you aren't open. Where is the real you? You have friends, I'm sure. Try to be more open, more personal, more intriguing. Don't try to be someone you're not, but try your best to let others in. I don't know you exactly, so whatever I said may of had no impact. By the way, I think people may end up feeling disappointed because they share their feelings and whatnot but you aren't sharing yours.

I totally agree with maxxie but I'd like to add more to that. You don't have to feel like you owe people when you're talking to them. You're just a small talk person. You get straight to the point and there is nothing wrong with that. Don't feel like you're a disappointment, thats just how you are and some people are like that. Sometimes I'm like that. If I don't feel like talking much, I'll get straight to the point.  Just be confident.

There's a song inside of my soul.
Its the one that Ive tried to write over and over again.
I'm awake in the infinite cold,
but you sing to me over and over again.

Just ask them about how their day's been going, or their interests, or bring up something you watched on TV.  These 'friends' of yours are still pretty much on acquaintance level so you have to get to know them more, as difficult at it is.
