    1)i'd be like....ok then...whatever init

    2)if its something really outrageous, i'd would feel the need to show them that im not...but this is rarely the case....

    3) I wouldnt do anything cos i dont really knnow them
    so i dont have to justify myself....
    i'd just say: Believe what u want init...i dont care...

    so it happened to me
    I have a friend in the miltary who thought that it must be so cool for me to have a friend in the military and assume I don't have many friends therefore no friends over sea and I must be estatic to get this one special birthday treating from an over seas person

    If it was just a birthday greeting than I would have loved it, but because he made himself sound so all mighty it kinda detered me from enjoying the message

    On top of it, it didn't bother me to burst his ego to tell him he is only one out of a few over sea friends to send me messages

    my first reaction would be wtf? why?!
    and if someone would hear it, he/she probably had even worst image of me - swearing.
    so for me - it's better to not to do anything... im gonna make it even worse XDDDDDD
    and besides, as long as it isn't my parents, boyfriend, very close friends - i simply don't care.

    lol, I been through this before. I felt kind of shocked and surprise then confuse. I know people to an extent naturally cares about how other people perceives them, but the more emphasize you put into how other looks at you, the more it will consume you and eventually will make you depress. Everyone has their flaws and everyones percieve everyone else differently so there is not point trying to change their perception. As for close friends it shouldn't matter really, since you guys are close friend anyway.

    1) How does this make you feel?
    Makes me feel awesome! My true self is well hidden!
    2) What do you do when someone you are close with has this image of you that you dont agree with?
    meh...don't care. Even better for taking advantage in the future XD
    3) What do you do when someone you aren't with has this image of you that you dont agree with?
    PSH! who cares....

    I seriously don't care if people got this wrong image of me.. not really my business..

    I might have a wrong image about other people as well.. I don't really care cause there are other things
    that's more important to me than that.

    I have always been a joker and never take anything seriously but when presented with a crying friend who is upset about her work, friends and general life and I try to offer her advice and comfort I get back "You wouldn't understand you never take anything seriously".

    In actual fact I am a very serious person and have had kind of a hard life, just cause I don't show it doesnt mean I can't take things seriously.

    happened to me... some girl said stuff about me for being hypocrite self-centered and other stuff
    i ended up believing that person and getting hurt... then i got depressed...until maybe someone or myself came to the conclusion that she completely wrong and i got better (still recovering)...
    then i kept distance from her until i found out what she was accusing me applied to her and she was just using me to make her feel better.... kind of releasing all her stress on me...
    my friends all supported me and now i'm snubbing her and some of my friends are also lol

    alot of people have bad impressions of me, because i'm an openly angry person. -harhar-

    so here are my responses

    1) How does this make you feel?
    Oh pretty pissy.
    When i'm already pissy, then yeah, I'll be like WTF. but tbh, after a day, I really couldnt care less.

    2) What do you do when someone you are close with has this image of you that you dont agree with?
    So be it. They can totally have that impression if they want cuz i know its not really me and it just indicates that they're not as close as you can be.

    Oh and if i'm really pissy, I'll play it up. for example, if they're gona say i'm bitchy. HELL YEAH IM GONA PLAY BITCHY. might as well have some fun

    3) What do you do when someone you aren't with has this image of you that you dont agree with?
    Ignore it if i'm busy thinking about something else, or ditto this answer

    Oh and if i'm really pissy, I'll play it up. for example, if they're gona say i'm bitchy. HELL YEAH IM GONA PLAY BITCHY. might as well have some fun
