Danes in general are a very quiet and patient people. They are seldom loud and self-indulgent (except for the occasional teenager). They keep to themselves out of courtesy and consideration for others. Don´t take their reserved nature as indifference or unkindness, because it is often more due to friendliness and their respect for your privacy. Just like, if you meet a horse or a dog for the first time - you don´t run up to it screaming your head off - it will be frightened if you do so. No, you sit quietly with a friendly attitude, until the creature comes to you. Then you can stroke it. Much like that, they sit quietly and wait to see if you are interested in contact. If you show interest, you will see, that they can be as talkative and social as every other people around the world.
