Everyone thinks my boyfriend is weird, help?

[Anonymous]

I've heard the same thing from several people about my boyfriend. They all describe him same as "very weird." They don't know he's my boyfriend but I ask them on their opinion of him. They say he doesn't talk and he just walks past them and avoid eye contact. It makes me think of him in a negative way. What do I do when I'm getting told how weird he is?

Minding ya own business is normal compared to what I've seen in this world.

But on a serious note, he's probably just got anxiety & self-acceptance issues. I imagine that if he wasn't struggling, then people would suddenly welcome him with open arms! Funny how that works.

But he could also just be not attractive to many people. Kinda like the opposite of the halo effect. People are more likely to assume bad things about ones that are ugly. So if they have certain behaviors or characteristics that aren't favorable, people are less lenient.

He doesn’t know your friends that well why does he need to talk like they’re his friends it doesn’t matter what they think it matters what he does with you in person that’s all that matters not about what your friends think

Maybe he's just shy/intro
Does he have any form of social anxiety? Have you talked to him about it?

If everyone is saying it maybe you should listen. They can't all be wrong.

Why should they care. you're happy he is happy that is all what matters. Maybe he is antisocial.
