Ha! Fooled you.

I would normally consider posting stuff like this on my blog, but most people I know in real life actually read my blog and I don't really feel like being a non-anonymous attention-whore right now.

Recently i've become increasingly aware of how wrongly people "get" me. People have commented that nothing seems to bother me, which is exactly wrong. I take just about anything, regardless of how serious it was intended to be, very personally and it weighs on my thoughts for quite a while. Most people seem to assume I just shrug off any remarks anyone makes about me.

I generally consider myself to be quite romantic, i'm an old romantic fool and get quite emotional (no tears though :p) during those sentimental moments in films and stories (one of my favourite films is The Lion King). Today I was in the kitchen with some lady flatmates and I commented that something was romantic and the ladies (all of them) said that I didn't strike them as very romantic,


I have no intention of holding this against them, but the comments were more cutting than I expected. Obviously it's my fault if people are getting me so wrong, I just wish I knew how to be more... like me when people are around.
