What is the one Misconception people have about you?

most people assume because most of my friends are male and I have no problem discussing sex and intimacy that I must be a slut.

a common assumption seems to be that I am some sort of uber organized together kinda gal. Reality is that I barely hold it together most days.

Your post reminds me a little of me. Only the guys I work with and my male friends don't consider me a slut, they just consider me one of the guys... :eek:

Because I am so independent they tend to assume the same thing. And the reality of it all is that it is like your reality.

That's kinda how it is with me. Because so many of my friends are guys, everyone wants to assume I'm screwing them all. :rolleyes:
 
Not around here, but plenty of people put me safely in the hetero box because I was married to a man for 9 years.
 
gruff

The most common misconception about me among my friends and family is that because I am often gruff, even curmugeonly, that I don't feel things as deeply as those around me. I do it is just that I have been through so much (my war, the murder of a son, the estrangement of my daughter, two divorces) and my work - as a boat captain where I NEVER show emotion - I have learned to insulate myself. It's merely self-preservation; it is not that my emotions have been turned off merely that they are controlled. I still laugh, still cry... admittedly mostly inside (the crying at least) but just because they can't be readily seen doesn't mean they aren't there.

Whoo... I feel better. Just send me the bill doctor.
 
The one misconception that people have had of me all of my life is that I am a snob. That could not be farther from the truth than anything. I have always been an incredibly shy person. Very quiet and easy to have my feelings hurt. All through school I never had more than one friend because of my shyness. Just to have someone speak to me would always make me blush and stammer with my speech. I have always hated, hated, hated to be the center of attention or to have everyone looking at me. This was not because I am ugly or anything, I have had many guys tell me that I am very pretty, even beautiful. At least that is what the man I finally met and fell in love with has always told me.
I now am over my shyness to some degree, though I still do not like to be the center of attention in any situation. :eek:
 
people think I'm straight middle-class family man but they don't know about the hinterland back there.

almost the same here. People see me as a conservative, suburban housewife in the most vanilla way. They have no idea that I'm a little kinky and wild. And that I'm Bi.
 
...because most of my close friends are women, it is assumed I am screwing all of them....and that I am some kind of player..... :p
 
that i'm human

i'm really just a boil on the butt of humanity
