first impressions

There are some people I dislike (or just don't care much about) at first sight. This is wrong, I know, but it's natural instinct. In some cases, when I do get the chance to get to know the person better, I'm proved wrong.

The same way I know some people may have an impression of me. One of my classmates (not so close though) insists that I'm too intimidating. Which sounds silly because why would he continue to talk to me, if I am indeed intimidating. This guy is a few years younger -- so I'll just think he's just being immature.

I told him I've accepted that some people may find me intimidating AT FIRST. I know that once they get to know me I'm pretty easy going. He debated that first impressions last. I don't think so, buddy.

I don't know if I'm being stubborn. But there's nothing I can do to change how people may perceive me at first. I can't make myself shorter. I won't change my posture.

I won't accept the theory that I'm still single because I look intimidating. I don't think all guys are weak and insecure. I've just been exposed to the wrong ones. I just have to stay patient.
