What's the biggest misconception about you?

[hotwords229]

Okay, let us know something about you by telling us what the biggest misconception people have about you is.

We all have that thing everyone says about us that just isn't true.

Mine seems to be, "He's shy, he's always so quiet" Nothing could be further from the truth, I just like to observe before I pounce!

Besides, you know what they say--It's always the quiet ones.

What yours?

 

[Azuldrgon]

That just because I respect people on the board, I must not have an evil, dirty mind.

I can prove that wrong in a heartbeat.

This one is true for me, too. Well, not here obviously. lol But in the face to face realm, people often assume I'm either shy or stuck up. Neither is true.
I'm just a people watcher. I like trying to figure them out. I've found that if you're quiet and you smile, people will tell you all sorts of things about themselves. I'm also very private, so I have to be close to someone before I open up.

Here at Lit, many assume I a bit of a slut. I flirt outrageously, but those who really know me understand that it ends there. In PM, I'm more likely to talk about work or family than sexy stuff. I understand why they make the assumptions they do. I could stop flirting and having fun. I'm not going to, but I could. I've just never really cared much what others think of me. *shrugs*

It's a double edged sword. I honestly don't care what people think about me in the long run. The folks I like, I like for a reason and it's not usually sexual. I am friends with the folks I am friends with. I don't run with a clique or anything because I'm too damn old for cliques anyway.

You're not a slut, VT. You are a thoughtful, kind, sweet person who has been there for me a bunch of times when i needed it. If people get mad at me for saying that, fuck it.

 

[hotwords229]

VT anyone who has read your writing knows you better than that--a slut isn't that insightful.

You observe, that is clear from your written works. You know us, you know you.

You are kind, wonderful and kind of wonderful!

Azul, I kind of thought that about you at first too, thanks for proving me wrong.

You're awesome!

That I'm some kind of Casanova player type.

I'm not even good at flirting.

And I'm an introvert.

Thanks, AZ. I don't imagine anyone would get mad at you for being kind.

I honestly don't care what people think, I was just answering the question. The people whose opinions matter to me all know me well enough to know better.

Dang it, y'all stop that! You're going to make me blush.

(Thank you. )

I would argue that you're an expert flirter, but I do believe the introvert statement.

You have a Casanova voice, bro......I can get the introverted part.

Damn.....

How YOU doin'?

The biggest misconception people seem to have about me is that I'm not intelligent. I can't tell you how many times people have seemed surprised at how knowledgeable I was about whatever topic they were discussing and they're always shocked at how much I know about sports. I'm very quiet and shy IRL, so maybe they're just surprised that I'm actually speaking.

I know you're a quick wit. You are pretty fast on the baseless lie thread.

People actually think that? Whoa!!! That confounds me. I could tell you were intelligent the first time I saw your posts on the board.

 

[lovetopleasewomen]

I don't know...

 

[Daizie]

The biggest misconception about me is that I'm unapproachable or it seems that people think I'm a "player". I just like talking/flirting and kidding around here with everyone (some more than others *wink). Sometimes I do keep to myself by just posting what music I'm listening to or what the last thing I drank was but that doesn't mean you can't talk to me.

Well like you I'm an introvert.
I also feel like I don't know how to flirt.

Sara, it's because you're very pretty and, okay, well, hot! Let them underestimate you, it gives you the upper hand.

Soon you will take over the world!

And you're going to need henchmen. I'll be sending you my resume.

That I am not genuine...because of my "sugary and fru fru" delivery...

I was raised in that kind of environment so it has carried with me...it is just one small part of who I am though...

Am often judged by one chapter of my life story...

I am flawed surely...but I do mean what I feel in my heart
