What is the one thing people initially misjudged about you?

Question

MissSunshine2 · Accepted Answer

Everyone when they first meet me, immediately looks at my pretty face, big, doe eyes and big breasts, expensive clothes and bubbly nature and instantly assumes I'm a pretentious bimbo and a bit of a princess. To be fair, I don't look intelligent and I do come across as dumb and materialistic until people scratch the surface and get to know me better. I have actually been IQ tested by my therapist and apparently, I actually have a higher IQ than many people, not that it even matters. But once people get beyond the initial prejudice and assumptions that they won't like me, we often end up being really good friends, so it's okay.

That I'm just an airhead. I know it's also because I often present myself that way. Online and off , I bounce around a lot just being rather silly 'cuz I like to have fun and laugh and try to get people to smile, if only for a minute.

But there is more than air between my ears. There's also Marshmallow Fluff! At least according to my evil, middle sister.

aceleon · Answer

just because i look disinterested and detached doesn't mean i am not aware.

i just spend more time in my head than outside world.

me being this easily angered but not doing something to you is not me not being actually angry enough to hurt you, it is the result of almost 2 decade of anger managment therapies i suffered, trust me, when i'm angry at you because you don2t answer to your phone i feel like murdering you in gruesome ways, i just developed enough control not to, my twitching eyes are not a sign of moderate annoyance they are the sign i actually want to kill you but tighten every muscle i can feel to not to.

OneViewpoint · Answer

I'm an introvert. I don't want to interact with 95% of the people I run into. Because of that, when faced with a blank slate and very little information about me, people tend to make up all sorts of stuff in their own heads. Especially women, but it happens with guys too. Most completely misread me. And I'm generally not interested in devoting my time and effort to correcting their misconceptions. People aren't very imaginative. The themes tend to be... He must be shy. Nope. Not even close. He must be arrogant. Maybe. But I hope not. He must be mean or dangerous. Nope. Not without reason. I need to get him out of his shell. No. No you don't. He's mysterious. Not really. More like I have an unusual background. He has no personality. Nope. I'm just not showing you my personality.

Because of my height, they think I play basketball. I play drums, records and cards!
Because of my looks and long hair, they think I take drugs, smoke and drink a lot. I don't do any of that and never have!
Also because of my looks, women think I'm some scary monster that's GOING to hurt them!! If they'd give me half a chance, they'd find out that I'm one of the kindest, sweetest, loving, loyal and non-violent guys they've ever met! Oh, well!! THEIR loss!! Especially now that I'm no longer on the market!!
Some people think I'm stupid. Last time (ONLY time) I took an IQ test, I was a few points shy of borderline genius!!

FreyaRed · Answer

I'm a pretty looking dummie who breaks together under slightest pressure. Who have been raised by loving parents who protected and covered their little girl from evil world. Who just played with fluffy bunnies, never thinking about something bad.
It was surprising for them when they realized I came from hell.

LifeHitMeandRan · Answer

People think I am cold and distant. It always surprises people when their pets are drawn to me for attention because they think "cold" people like me are uncaring. I'm just wise enough to keep my mouth shut because most people are too dumb to open their minds to the possibility their views could be wrong. OR whatever they want to babble about means NOTHING so no point in engaging.

NathanDavis · Answer

most, if not all of my best friends first did assume I was arrogant, or full of myself... as in, I did look down on others, but no, lol

while it is true that I am not usually the one to approach and start conversations with others like, pretty much never... when others do approach me, I always engage and respond, follow up and keep it up too... lmao

ohsheeT · Answer

Probably everything lol. I really dont know and if there judging me.. I really dont care.. but if they are
i hope they are right at least.
That way they won't feel so bad if they take the time to get to know me

VioletHaze · Answer

That I'm intimidating or scary. I am quiet, observant and often don't feel a need to talk unless spoken to. If you do though, you'll realize I'm quite nice and bubbly.

Still-alive · Answer

Anonymous · Answer

When I tell people I’m conservative some people automatically think of a bunch of negative stereotypes in the demographic where I live in. 90% of them aren’t true.

And it’s such insane hypocrisy that I’m labeled the “prejudice” one.
