    A lot of women do come off as intimidiating because the suffer from R.B.F. (Resting B**** Face).
    Yikes. There's some deeply rooted animosity in there somewhere.

    People have always started stuff with me and I'm told I always look pissed off...but it's the opposite. I'm normally happy and not looking to start anything

    My kids friends are afraid of me. "Dude, your dad looks scary."

    ^This.

    But once people get passed the "look", I'm screwed.

    I knew you were a softie right away. :smile:

    I have been told by many people that i am intimidating... until they got to know me.

    So, I guess I just look intimidating.

    Although, I can be intimidating, if i so choose...

    I make no sense, sometimes.

    It depends on the situation, but even then I probably wouldn't use the word intimidating...assertive maybe, or confident. Yeah, I'm not intimidating at all.

    Over the years on various forums I have been told I have a certain "confident" presence. I've had a few people say they felt intimidated to email or talk to me. I still don't understand that. I'm the biggest goofball there is.

    And...it's the Internet. How "intimidating" can one really b? lol.

    Maybe that's it, I don't know. But it sucks bc I always get the stink eye from other dudes, when I was just sitting there.

    I am about as imtimidating as a unicorn sh!tting out cupcakes!
  • The right combination of intense eyes, apathetic outlook, and somber sociopathic demeanor goes a long way.

    No lie, I get this too..

    EVERYONE says I always look mad, or SUPER b!tchy... it's hard for me to make friends... Once people get to know me they see how fun and happy I really am.. I can't help my angry face!! Sorry! :(

    You weren't supposed to say anything! I told you, I ran out of the blue pills. :sad: :tongue:

    I've been told I look very approachable and easy going in person. I have no reason to try and look or act intimidating.......

    Half a ton of lean muscle, capable of running at 40mph, with a bloody great big spike on your head? That's pretty damn intimidating.

    The fact I know more than most here and am bigger and stronger and more educated and less tactful is a recipe for me being intimidating here.

    I just act a fool to keep it real.

    Right. Not intimidating, but really, who wants to be around that.

    Try me.
  • I'm taking another turn. I realized that I minimized my intimidation factor to avoid scaring you all away. I am SO intimidating that I intimidate myself. Yep! That's right. I constantly walk around in the whole "Fight or Flight" mentality because of myself. I also intimidate the little abandoned kittens that I bottle feed and foster for the rescue...they know what's up. Lol :wink:

    I'm not at all! Though I suppose my height would make it easy to be intimidating in person, if I wanted to be. :wink:

    I wouldn't eff with you....just sayin.


    My personality is quite dry and sarcastic so some people find me intimidating because they never know when I'm serious or not...

    But reality is if you don't cross me, I won't cross you and therefore I remain sunshine and glitter and rainbows 80% of the time.

    Haha.

    In real life. I am.

    Here, no. Hard to get intimidated by an avatar.

    I don't think I'm intimidating. But the salesmen at work, some of them sweat and wring their hands when they're talking to me.
