AJ tended to get very agressive and was sort of attacking Rarity's 'properness'. Fluttershy (unless she's waaaaay off the agressive deep end) rarely comments on anyone's traits in a negative light. I'm just pointing out how they're different is all. ^^

Well AJ wouldn't be awkward, but Fluttershy is almost -always- awkward, and AJ tends to want others to be more forward and honest, which isn't Fluttershy. RD has never really minded that Fluttershy doesn't bring up much about herself, since RD is very willing to offer what she wants to do. AJ is the kind of pony who wants to make her friends happy, and so does FS, but they both usually focus on doing what the other person wants, so I'm not sure how they would actually get to the point of one of them saying what they personally want to do. They're both un-selfish, which is a GREAT trait most of the time, but putting two of the same together ends up leaving them both unsure what the other wants to do while wanting to make them happy, making it awkward since they're both so focused on not making it about themselves.

Ever noticed how Fluttershy ends up with Rarity and RD more often than not? I think it's for that reason. Rarity and RD don't mind making conversation about themselves, but AJ and FS almost always are more interested in the people they're talking to than themselves.
