I'm about the same either way. I tend to be a wall flower until I get comfortable in a situation and get to know the people better. Then I open up a bit more, but still hold certain things pretty close the the vest.
On here, I mostly lurked my first few years, even though I read the board every day.
In RL, people tend to get the idea I'm unapproachable when they first meet me. Then once I get comfortable enough with them or the situation to let down the forcefields a bit, they are surprised how much more relaxed I am than what their initial perception suggested.
