(WYR) Scenario: Would You Rather?

[Rosexøxø]

look uncomfortable or be uncomfortable?

(Extended version):

You’re in a public setting, but uncomfortable:

Would you rather feel/be comfortable, yet look noticeably weird/ concerning to others?

Or

give the ‘appearance of comfortable,’ aka drawing less unwanted attention to yourself? (But feeling tense/anxious )?

summary:

(so *look* uncomfortable, but *be* comfortable? OR *look* comfortable but *be* uncomfortable)?

I really….. dragged this out. Lol Just want this to be simple to understand 👌

When I was a teenager yeah be uncomfortable but try to look good and not show that I was uncomfortable.. but I grew up and now it's function over fashion.. You can still look good and be comfortable these days.

[Rosexøxø]

Yess! Definitely function over fashion! I love that. Gotta write that down ✍️
Thanks for the honest share 😊

[Zolly99999]

No problem. Thanks for the MHO 😁

[NathanDavis]

I don't like to drag attention like that...

so I don't want to look like a mess

besides, I am used to feel like a mess while acting "completely normal" lmao...

I rather go with what I know

[Rosexøxø]

Interesting. Going with what you know 🤔

Also I do feel like a lot of people take this route usually. I’m certainly guilty of having done this before.

Thanks for the share!

I hate to be in the spotlight but I hate being uncomfortable more. I'll take the comfort. If you look uncomfortable, but you Own it, people won't mind.

[Rosexøxø]

Love the thought.
Thanks for the share Addlynn :)

[SnowedIn]

Give the appearance of comfortable regardless of the reality.

[Rosexøxø]

It’s like a primal safety measure- never let them see you weak 😲😱

[SnowedIn]

YES!

[Rosexøxø]

😄😄

[msc545]

I prefer neither. If I look uncomfortable, I AM uncomfortable.

[Rosexøxø]

😂 I love your intentional going against a lot of these questions. It’s like you are going out of your way to be different and I respect that 🤝💯

The persistence is admirable

[Andres77]

Look uncomfortable…

[Rosexøxø]

😂 thanks
