      People either think I'm a b**** (not sure why) or they think I'm way nicer than I really am. I'm somewhere in between.

      I also love when I can tell a server at a restaurant assumes my husband and I are crappy tippers because we're young. Not the case.

      Some people that don't know me well also seem to think that I'm the person to talk to about their emotions. I'm not.

      I suffer from BRF - B!tchy Resting Face, therefore I am a b!tch

      Me too! I even have a frank discussion with my classes about this the first week of school, letting all my students know that I'm not angry, or sad, or want to kill them, that's just what my face does.

      My students probably assume that I'm super lame and never go out or do anything remotely fun, and that I'm a killjoy. Not sure about people that aren't minors, they probably just think I'm angry about something. Oh well...

      People assume i'm a vegetarian/vegan a lot because I'm fairly politically active...the conflation of ideology and stereotypical lifestyle imagery just kills me on that one.

      I totally get this! We have:
      -Nice cars
      -Big house
      -College fund for the baby

      Besides that, there's nothing really we splurged on. We don't have:
      -Credit card debt (we pay ours off every month too)
      -Car payments
      -Any kind of debt other than our mortgage.
      -Frequent vacations
      -Cable/internet
      -And we almost never eat outside the home.

      See, I think that's so cool!! Even though you guys clearly have different priorities than we do (we are childfree by choice which is a big part of it I'm sure)...it sounds really similar to the way we think :-) I bet you have at least a few friends and acquaintances who think you guys are major ballers AND/OR struggling with debt. haha

      I can only wonder what people think about me or assume about me upon first meeting. I honestly don't know.

      People assume I am promiscuous because I can be slightly aggressive and appear confident with men... Which is SO far from the truth!

      People meet me and think im "Mr Nice" (really horrible label) then they find out I ride a motorbike and an atheist, all of a sudden I'm evil personified.

      People often assume I'm Spanish as well. I find it odd that people are so eager to categorize.

      People assume I don't date white guys. Wrong. :noway:

      People assume because I laugh at their jokes, I am interested to hear more. Wrong. :noway:

      People assume because I don't eat meat I then must eat nothing but salad. Wrong. :noway:


      ...my longest (3.5 year) relationship was with a blonde hair/blue eyed guy; I am a very polite person. Peace not war? And also....




      .....CARBS mmmmm nomzzzzz :love: :love: :love:

      I've had people assume that I'm European (I'm American). I guess they also assume that I should have had boyfriends or something but I never did.

      People assume I'm mean, due to my chronic b*tch face. I've also been told I'm intimidating....... In reality I'm just a really goofy, uncoordinated nerd, who plays way too much Skyrim.
