How do you feel when someone underestimates you? Does it happen a lot? How do you deal with it?

it's funny because the person is shocked when you prove that you can do it.

^ Yeah people can't believe I can carry 250 lbs on my back. I picked up my 265 lbs friend, and did an F5 on him. Everyone was like HOLY SH*T!

i hate it when tourists ask me if i speak english than ask for directions. i dress like a preppy white girl, no sh*t i speak english! if i dyed my hair or changed my eye color i could most likely pass as white.
i just get mad and stomp away  this other time the attendance something or other guy from my old high school tried to kick me out of school because i cut too much. he was all "we don't need you here, do you know how many students i have discharged? this morning i have gotten 5 calls to discharge students!" in my head i was like, people call you because this is your job  he underestimated my intelligence, he thought that i was an idiot with like 5 credits since i rarely showed up in school junior year. but then he pulled up my transcript and realized that i'm not a dumb ass and then he was like "you can stay here if you try to come to school more. i think you can do it, you're a smart girl." i was sick of the school and that guy so i decided to be discharged anyway. did he really think that i'd want to stay after what he said to me?  i hate most people...or is it most people hate me?  |

blehh people underestimate me all the time...it kind of makes me furious too..
well, first of all guys love to pick on me because i'm short and small...like pick on me like make fun of me and such, not like my guy friends messing with me, but i just get "crunk"...hahaha heyy...atleast they don't mess with me anymore  and people also think i'm not so smart because when i don't need to be serious i prefer to just have fun...well, when report cards come i sure do put that high honor roll certificate in their face....  when people underestimate me i just prove them wrong...if i know they're wrong then i make sure they know it, but if they're not wrong then i MAKE them be wrong....

the image isn't working. but yes. often. i get overestimated in school/grades...but underestimated in dance (only sometimes) or just by other people because i tend to be an outgoing, not so serious person, but i can be when needed. but yea...i do get underestimated a lot. and i don't like it. i try to prove people are wrong when i know they are. |

i hate it when people think that i'm a kid just because i look really young. like crap, i'm tuning 14.
they always think that i cant do anything, but in the end, its always me better than them. i hate it when people think that i'm stupid. i always get better grades than them and they dont believe me. when i got my report card, i get a 95.2, i'm like, "in your face!" hahaha. and they're like, "phhhsss..yea right. i never said that you're stupid." what liers ^  i hate it when people underestimate me..

I don't think I've really encountered that before...if anything, people overestimate my powers.
Oh, but there is sports. In athletic stuff people always underestmate me. I don't really have a reaction, because I know where they're coming from; they have reason to. I'm pretty bad. |

People underestimate me most that they can put me down because I'm "quiet, shy" or most of all, sensitive. Because I cry in front of people a lot. They don't know that if I have something to stand for myself on, I can be really strong.

Most people underestimate me with my physical strength, and my ability to fight. So you can say a lot of people try to jump me, waiting for a special surprise.
and people overestimate me because since I'm Asian, they think I'm the best at DDR. Truth is, I hate DDR, I suck at it, and I would never want to be good at it. |

Hmm .. Im never really underestimated. Sometimes im over-estimated. People think im up to do and for and have already done everything. When I most certainly have not. But some people, depending on my mood, when they first meet me underestimate either my strength or my compassion. =\ But in the end they find im a happy medium ... that tends to lean a little bit more towards a tough persona.

I have this one friend, Lindsay, who...doesn't realize what she says before it floats out of her mouth. Or, rather, she doesn't realize the impact of what she says has on other people. I'm terrible at chemistry, and since that's the only class we share together, she thinks I'm this moron. Which I most certainly am not. So anywho, she's always underestimated me, calling me stupid and stuff like that, and it's like she's asking to be stabbed in the face.
And I probably would really stab her if, you know, it wasn't illegal. |

People think since I'm short they can take me. I just beat up my brother and his friend because they were trying to steal my journal. They have claw marks and bite marks all over them, not to mention lots of hair pulled out. I went all crazy, animal like. 0_o Like a mother protecting her young.
