Do People Fear You?

Post Reply New Topic

I wish people WERE scared of me, then maybe they would have left me alone! People come up with psuedo-phsycholigist BS and tell me that they ARE scared of me and that's why they picked on me... HAH! Honestly I once threw a knife and a pair of garden snips at the kids in my class... if they were scared of me they would have shut the f**k up, NOT go "oh why shouldn't I throw something at her! whine whine whine!". At the end of year 8 I got into a fist fight with a girl who had been picking on me non-stop, and she STILL kept on picking on me, even right in front of our principal, and even when she was SO close to getting expelleled for other BS she'd done and she had to be on good behaviour at all times! Yes she SUUUUUUURE was scared of me alright (by the way in that last sentence I was being sarcastic!)
Honestly, if I threw a knife at you or beat you up, would YOU still want to pick on me?

Yeah. I've definitely scared people. Not sure why - maybe they sense the violence seething within me. Still, some seem attracted to it....

I think people are mostly irritated by me

I think so.

I get the feeling I intimidate them, because my voice isn't quiet, it's very loud and bold, and I hate to say it, but I swear more than I should. Also my aspiness makes me distant. I do my best to be friendly, but I cannot help coming across that way to some people.

There is a few people at work I can use as an example, I mean they're cool, I like them but I get the feeling they're scared of me.


When I was at school, people were "scared" of me because they just didn't like anyone different, and thought it would be gross to be friends with someone that is not like everyone else.

I've been told that I am "intimidating" because I'm intelligent I speak very formally. I guess those things put people off, but I don't do it deliberately. It irritates me that people don't accept that I am not trying to be stuck up or disagreeable. I'd really like to have more friends.

They did until Junior year. Before that, people would try to avoid me at all costs or harrass me to see if I'd explode. But I wasn't afraid to attack them if I had to, which was often. Nowadays, since I don't live in those areas, everything's been going great.

Oh, yeah. I got that, too. I was told the most horrible things about my apperance, the way I did stuff and what I was. They wanted to make me cry, or get mad I never did. I just said "I know" or "thankyou" calmly.

But it really screwed me up.

I think people are afraid of my ability to make any side of an arguement, and of my tendency to correct people. by my last year in high school no one ever challenged me in the classroom not even the teachers, and now in college most people avoid contradicting me becauses they know i'll tear them to pieces...

ARRRRGH!! ! That reminds me of this one time I tried to have a debate in catechism class. The teacher just wasn't up to it, so he blew me off. THEN, to make matters worse, I ran into him at the deli when I was riding my bike home from school and he threatened to make hell for me if I ever tried to debate him again.

I feel hated and feared at the same time.

People might be scared of you even when they are picking on you, the teasing is a defense mechanism, kids these days are obssessed with humor and use it to deal with an increasingly hostile world. Autistic and Asperger's kids are a part of this terrifying world they are forced to deal with, and instead of dealing with it in a mature manner, they instead use humor to overcome the stress these strange, alien like beings cause in their lives.

I didn't have too many problems in High School cause I stuck around the same kids continuosly who just got used to me, but trying to find new friends in college was nearly impossible. There just aren't that many niiiiice people around. They are out there though, nice, understanding people do exist, they're just difficult to find and they also tend to interact freely in the hierarchies of those more inclined towards cruelty.

I think they might. I defiantly make them uncomfortable and that along with the fact that I'm pretty big and what my mom calls 'wild looking' probably causes some sort of fear. That's probably why people usually don't give me a hard time and just try to avoid me instead.

I was once told by a person that they hated me. So, I said good, I will feed of of that, because, it only makes me stronger.

I hate the feeling of going to work. Most people i work with think i am insane or creepy, i guess from my aloof comments to my vocal tics as well. I am always called mean and my face usually always stays deadpan. I can't change my attitude around a place where everyone has my dubbed. It makes me wanna shrivel up and die.

I was very quiet in elementary school, but if someone really pissed me off, I was agressive. And kids couldn't do anything, teachers didn't believe them because they thought "a little shy girl like me couldn't do these things".

I scared people with my presence. Last year, I was with a girl I met in high school, she told me "When I saw you on school, I think you were always angry, mad and irritated. You scared me. Now I see I was wrong".
