Do people get you all wrong?

Answer 1

Long ago, someone told me this and it has been invaluable to me:

It does not matter what people say about you or do to you, it only matters how you react to it.

Answer 2

Yes they see me, long hair, skinny jeans, a bit of a beard, quiet and a little prone to weakness and ineffectualness and the immediately assume that I am a vegetarian or an animal rights activist / environmentalist whereas i drive a stonking great 4X4 and eat anything that is going and rarely draw the line because of pet or such like issues, loved my horses when growing up, loved my bunnies when growing up but will that stop me eating rabbits and horses now no. Also they seem to think that because of my job (added to my appearance) that I am some sort of Communist or at least vote Socialist Workers' Party, far from it I am Liberal / Conservative.

Answer 3

Yes at times they truly get me all wrong. I really wish that the people who get me wrong would just open up their minds and hearts and truly listen to what I am telling them instead of reading things into what I am saying that aren't there to begin with. That would end alot of the misunderstandings.

Answer 4

At time people get me wrong and i think is always due to misunderstanding that is they don't keep their assumption lightly but they allow it to control them the list i do they don't ask their self question they just assume and start thinking that am wrong

Answer 5

all of the time--if i were you, i wouldn't read too much into it, as long as you know who you are, and what you are about, it does not matter what anyone else thinks. i have this saying, that if a person does not pay my rent, or wash my underwear, or i do not owe them anything, then i really do not care one hogwash what they think. people are naturally insecure with themselves, and have nothing better to do with their time, that is why they feel the need to fill up that space and emptiness by being nosy, and lying on other people. you just keep your chin up.

Answer 6

Yes most times

Answer 7
