Answer 2

Quote: "Hey I'm an emo and goth, don't hate it be it. I cut all my arm, and my face, hey that isn't a bad thing at least for me, hey contact me plz "


Translation: "Hey, I do everything MTV tells me to. Don't hate being a mindless sheep who follows whatever trend gets you the most attention that month, embrace it. I cut myself so that when someone walks by they get shocked and ask me what's wrong or tell me to cheer up or stop doing it, all so someone will pay attention to me. Hey that isn't a bad thing at least for me. I paint my nails black and slick my hair over my face slightly so that more people look at me, and every once in a while a girl thinks it's kinda cool and talks to me. It shows I'm a true rebel to society, even though I'm actually the complete opposite of a rebel, since being goth is just the cliche thing to do now when you want to try to show you don't like the way the world is. Hey contact me plz so I can put on even more of act in hopes of getting your attention long enough to flirt with you a while."


Oh, and as for the actual question, just try not to be over-dramatic with complaining or being sad. Also don't do things like huge long dramatic sighs everytime something doesn't go your way. If you do any of those things, that's probably why they call you that. If you don't, maybe you're just really depressed and people can pick up on that, and then call you emo cause they're stupid and over-use the word. Depression and emo are 2 completely different things. So if you don't do any of the things I or anyone else was talking about here, you can probably just ignore the emo comments and write them off as people being dumb. Hope that helps a little! =)

Answer 3

Emo is over. Overused, overglorified, overpopular. To stop being labeled as anything, whether it be emo or something else, just become more of who you are. More diverse, more real. Get hobbies, and then make friends with others who share those hobbies. Laugh out loud, then laugh some more.Dont worry about what everybody else says and thinks, they are being labeled too.

Answer 4

Let things slide instead of making a big deal about them. Consider other's feelings before you have a tantrum. and stop whining when you have to do something you don't want to. In other words, grow up and stop acting like the world revolves around your wants.

Answer 5

Stop being a depressing bore, get rid of the black hair, and cheer up a little. Life isn't that bad. Oh, and get better taste in music. Emo is crap.
