Both here on the Org, and in "real life"??...

I don't think people misconceive me usually some workmates were shocked that some acquaintances of mine called me "quiet"

that im a cocaine addict..and a repressed homosexual..which is somewhat vague.

on the org i think that people think i flirt too much but usually i'm just bored and its something to do. in real life i don't talk much and people either think i'm mean or stuck up (they don't know how far from the truth that is )

People actually think that I'm nice.

that i'm serious. i just can't think of anything funny to say sometimes, but i like to laugh, a lot.

People mistake my patience for acceptance, both here and in person.

Some people think i hate women. And some people think i am not a nice person.

Err... you do know that "know" and "think" are two different words, don't you?

no clue about the org, but in real life people are constantly assuming I'm stuck up, or some stupid crap along those lines, when I'm just too shy/socially inept to figure out what to say most of the time.

I have been told that some ppl on the org think that I'm a very religious person I mean i do believe in God, but not as in fanatic...

Irl..ummmm ppl think that I'm a very understanding person but there are quite some situations in which i realy think but still am able to bring a charming smile on my face (or just say : fuck off )

Here: newbies think I'm mean, I'm so not

Elsewhere: before getting to know me folks think I have an attitude b/c I don't walk around w/ a smile plastered on my face. My normal look could be mistaken for "mean" I guess, but it's just the way I look, wtf am I supposed to do? I totally light up when I see people I know, all smiles & jokes. But who's like that just walking down the street? I can't help it, my face looks how it looks, can't force some "pleasant" half smile to make other muthafuckas comfortable - get to know me... bitch

some people tend to think I'm fake or phony (I know it) because I'm very affectionate... but that's just who I am those who have met me will hopefully say the same

From those I've met on the org, I think it surprises them how shy and reserved I can be in real life.

Heck, even good friends and co-workers forget or don't know I can be shy.

seems people here think i am a sex mad nekkid hippy

( points to charlottegelin )



seriously though I dont think about this topic much

if it's a misconception then they own it ... not mine to worry about

people think I care.

People actually think I'm sane.

As far as the Org is concerned, I don't know but, in life...

People don't think that I get angry and mistake my kindness for weakness. Big mistake... So, when I do get pissed they look like this: . I get accused sometimes of being nonchalant. I have no clue where that came from

I've been told "imtimidating"

Yeah , I can see how you'd get that. I think it's because you're very outspoken and opinionated...In a good way IMO.

aloof or arrogant

I don't think so!

purpleizpassion said:

You to??? I get the SAME thing!!!

On the org-that I'm a baby hater

In life-that I'm a sissy

CalhounSq said:

I always crack up when guys walk up to me and say "why aren't you smiling". Well damn, up until you came along I was standing alone!. People who smile into the blank air are crazy!

I am very quiet, and soft spoken.

In real life people take my kindness for granted.

That's more or less what I meant about being a sissy. People mistake my kindness and my big heart and my ability to cry as weakness. I'm anything but.....
