I...don't want to scare you! o-o;
er...I tend to scare people for some reason. I'm not trying to. It's like their first impression of me is some creepy girl who doesn't smile and is very quiet. The problem is that it's my 'normal facial expression'. I can't do anything about my face. Despite how much of a face lift I want, it's just wrong, so I don't want to. I try to be a bit more social with everyone, but it DOESN'T work. In P.E., all the jocks and preps tend to like...disperse away from me or something like I'm a freak or something. I don't get it...What did I do wrong? o-o; |
Jocks are just jerks. Who cares what they think of you.

I kind of know how you feel, my face is naturally kind of frowny too. I have never actually had people disperse when I come around, it just seems to take longer for people to warm up to me and start getting to know me than other people. Do you dress differently or anything? It just doesn't seem quite right that people would act that way even if you look like you're frowning all of the time. Maybe there is some kind of rumor floating around that you aren't aware of? Try smiling a little more, for some reason, I smile at work a lot ( I work at an elementary school) and the kids seem to respond very well to that.

Jocks and preps are losers. A lot of people think I'm just a weirdo and I'm not. :|
I'm just very loud and my laugh is loud and scares people, but I'm not that weird as everyone thinks I am. Stupid hypocrites :roll: |
Yeah, I know...but whenever I smile, it doesn't LOOK like I'm smiling. Then whut? o-o;
|
I think you are being too critical of yourself and maybe that shows through. I don't see how it could not look like you're smiling if you are. I also kind of have to agree with Mango and Chantar, jocks and preps could be real jerks when I was in school and I doubt it has changed much. It would be annoying to be treated that way though.
|
I agree with all of you. Thanks you guys, I really appreciate your help. ^ ^

people tell me I have an evil stare O.o I don't think I frown or anything, and my face isn't "normally" evil looking to me.. >.< but I've heard it from so many people D:
even my own fiance told me the first time we started to go out how I had glared him madly at school D: maybe you have that same kind of problem? try to look more happier? :D but hey, atleast you know how to get a room for yourself in classroom.. 8--D no one dares to sit next to you when you look at them xD |
My eyes are perpetually droopy (even when I get good sleep >> I get it from my grandmother) and my 'normal', non-expressive face makes me look like a stereotypical, bored goth/emo. Not sure how else to put it. :/ And my best friend can quite easily give you a look that says "I want to slowly choke you to death and laugh while doing so" just by rearranging her expression ever so slightly- she made a guy flee once. XD She's a lovely person, inside and out, she just happens to have a face that can easily be menacing...just like I have one that can easily look bored.
You've just got to work with how you look; prove everyone wrong, defy what they expect, be yourself, and honestly, why give a rip what the 'popular' people think? They're the freaks that get divorced a few years after graduation and become embittered, crotchety old men and women. =D |
Haha, thanks you guys <3
I guess I'll try to just be myself. And maybe show gas (smile) more often. ^ ^ |
That's exactly the same as me...
I don't like talking to people I don't know in case I say the wrong thing and sometimes when I am thinking deeply, my friends say I look kind of scary... Like this year seven kid asked me where the toilet were and I told her to follow me but she said she didn't want to because I looked scary and might kidnap her but to tell her the directions instead Damn you, year sevens!!!! |
gosh you did nothing wrong, it's peoples perception and i hate it as much as you do, just be you, ignore those people, be yourself shrug all the negative tension around you and focus on your school work and if you do have fun then have fun don't do anything drastic there is no need for it just get through school, and relish your freedom once you finish school lol

I tend to scare people all the time too. Though it generally isn't the way I look, it's my over the top personality, which goes into hiding when i first meet someone, only to explode out a few weeks later when i'm finally comfortable. I'm sickeningly open minded and will talk about ANYTHING at random, a lot of things other people seem uncomfortable bringing up... I dunno why. o_O
I always look like I'm depressed or moody unless there's actually something directly in-front of me to make me smile, it's just my neutral expression. |
I can so relate to this situation >____<.
I scare a lot of people before they get to know me better as a person (if they do at all). I remember when I was standing in line at Costco for food and some little boy looked back at me and his eyes got huge and he started getting near-to-tears and clutched on to his mom's arm for dear life. And what did I do to freak him out? Nothing, nadaaa :l. This happens a lot though xD. I mean, not always with small children though but in general. Like me just standing there made this kid freak out. Me just being around in classes scares a lot of people because I wear a stuff with skulls, a lot of black, crapload of eyeliner, and such. But really, it's just how I dress. I don't see how being me is all that frightening xP. Another example is when I was in Spanish class and one of the upperclassmen was scared to death of me because of my arm fishnets =/. He was all, "Oh my gosh! Why does she wear those? I bet she slashes her arm all the time! Blah blahhh". I hate those stereotype craps about people who wear darker clothing, I really do. I just think more people need to look beyond the surface of what company or color of clothes someone is wearing and just get to know them >x<. The level of ignorance the world has come to is truly amazing x.x |
OMG im like that too. :shock:
I thought i was the only one that was like that... but sadly i don't know what to do about it. :[ |
It happens to me sometimes too. I get jokes from friends about being a weird goth girl or an emo kid really because I'm just real shy so I'm usually very quiet, and maybe because I used to carry around a little coffin purse.
I guess it happens to a lot of people and I wouldn't let it bother me if I were you, because usually once people get to know you they love you even if they thought you were scary before. |
a lot of us can relate to that. I was the every so friendly fat/goth hyper girl. some people loved me, which were my friends, and others just side stepped around me and wanted nothing more but to get away from me. basically ignore it. wait till college it all changes. preps are snobs anyway. they only like skinny girls who smile and look exactly like them. Jocks are just jerks anyway and actually go no were in life.

Kids can be harsh for no reason other than they have nothing better to do with their time. Take it from someone who was teased mercilessly in high school, it stops and you didn't do anything wrong to cause it. They just need someone to pick on and because you are quiet you become a target. I'm not saying it is okay that they pick on you at all, I'm just letting you know that it isn't your fault and it will pass.

I find you need a reason to smile before you do. There is nothing wrong with you, you are just unfortunately in a situation at school where most of the people are close minded around you.
I would say try finding an after school hobby club with people who share the same interest as you. They'll get to know the real you and not find you scary or anything. Also.. just for fun, you can always try smiling at the preppys and jocks randomly one day. A really big sweet smile, just to confuse them. Ha ha ha! People in the jock and prep types don't think about you as much as you might think. They pass a simple judgement by looks, so I would ignore those people just as much as they ignore you. Don't let it bother you, they aren't worth it! |
