What are misconceptions people have of you.

People have two of me (that I know of)

1. Everybody thinks I dont like anything that was made past the year 1966 (something that is so untrue)

2. Most people including my friends think I am a couple of can short of a six pack. Not true either. I am different I will admit that, and I am on the ecentric side, but I'm not insane.

Some people seem to think just because I have vision and hearing difficulties must mean I also have intellectual difficulties. Not true at all!

Some people think I'm gay because I listen to Ginuwine, Jagged Edge, and other R&B musicians. Not the case.

Some people think that just because I'm shorter than they are that I will freeze up, get nervous and never say what I want. On the contrary, I've surprised people because I have a tendency to be more blunt off line than on line. I've gotten into a couple of arguments because of that, but I have tried to tame the bluntness. I don't let people walk all over me, and those that think they can walk all over-well, I show them.

To be honest I don't know what people's conceptions of me are, my problem is i THINK I know, and I automatically carry that with me, and I usually think it is something bad.

I don't get why people think that. I know a lot of guys that listen to those musicians.

You'd be surprised at how many people 1)Never heard of those musicians, or 2)Assume that their music is baby making music. You can make that argument about Boyz II Men(who I'm also a fan of BTW). Thing is most people my age listen to musicians like Lil' Wayne, Soulja Boy, and rock musicians. Unless it's R&B, I generally don't like today's music.

That I'm a stuck-up bitch. I'm really not, I'm just untrusting and shy.

I think that people get that same feeling about me. Fact is I'm very open-minded and accepting of others. Hell I hang out more with nerds and awkward people.

Same here. I'm painfully shy and not a big talker. I'm just not good verbally.

i think that people think im some sort of pushover because im so easygoing most of the time the other misconception is that people think im never serious and they act so surprised when i jump in and take care of things for people when they really need it

That.

beautifuldreamer · 08-25-2009, 05:25 PM

I don't know... a lot of people think I'm cheerful all the time, and eager to listen to their problems... but they only think that cause I have a smile pasted on my face 24/7 (which is really more out of habit

). People also think that because I'm a music major, I want to perform for them at every chance I get.... ugh.

And I think because I'm really quiet, people think I think highly of myself... but whatever.
