I've noticed so many people change dramatically when they are around strangers and away from the rents. How do you act? Do you act different?
Are you the: Crazy Type Annoying Type Shy Type Cool Type Perverted Type etc... I think I do change I think I'm normally the crazy type that annoys all the strangers XD. You know the one everyone end sup hating. |

Awkward type. Whenever I'm around strangers like people my sisters bring over or my parents friends I drop stuff and trip and ramble and dont make eye contact and use run on sentences.

I act as though someone's watching me. So I try not to make movements to obvious or predictable and I'm as calm as possible.

Well, many people have told me that I appear to be insensitive at first impressions. I must suffer from the Insensitive-a-hole Syndrome.

It depends. I get to know strangers better if they're outgoing, but if they're shy, I tend to be shy too.

In public i'm shy, and polite.
If I'm with multiple people my behavior sort of reflects theirs. Not that I am copying them, but I wouldn't behave loud and obnoxious if the group I'm with is quiet and reserved. |

You made a good point about that second part, too. |

Overseas, the military tells us to blend in with the locals, making no actions, and wearing nothing that may expose our status with the USDOD.

I am generally a warm person, but I'm the type that waits for someone to talk to me before joining a conversation if I'm around people I don't know. At school, around the music department, I feel really comfortable, so if I see a group of people standing around talking in a circle, I'll walk up and stand in the group and start talking as if I'd been there the whole time. xD
I say I'm awkward all the time, but I guess it's all about how you handle the awkwardness. :P |

I have been told on an occasion or 2 or 20 that I can be a real a-hole in public. I am honestly as quiet as they come, and always aware of my surroundings.

on a normal day, i hold myself up. if i make eye contact with anyone, i try for a smile. sometimes i make random conversation and try to make people laugh.
if i've got a job to do, then i'll be taking fast, long steps and not looking too much at anything. my eyes always flicker around a little so i'm aware of my surroundings and faces of people to remember. |

I think it's natural for some people to act different between those two types of people, especially if there's major age difference. Of course I act different, but not by that much.

I act weirder when I'm not around my mom. At school, I'm a little quieter than usual. I don't act that different, though.
Selvy, stop coming back to and disappearing from CB so sporadically! |

i act differently with everyone
if the person is a flirt...i flirt back if the person is shy...i talk to them if the person is partying...i party with them if the person is being quite...i'll just sit with them if the person is crying.... actually i just realized thats one of the rules at Mcdonalds is to treat every customer differently |

Depends who im with. If it's someone older that are either my sister's or rent's friends, i am extremely anti social and just sit there and just, slowly die. i dunno.
When im around complete strangers, however. xD haha. I give things to them that I find on the street, talk to them randomly, just approach ppl if i'm hyper. If not, ill just keep to myself and do w/e. |

Depends. When I'm around my friends, I'm usually loud. But if I don't know anybody around me, I'm really awkward, mysterious, and shy.

I act the same all the time. There is no point in lying to my mom or anyone else about who I am. How can I expect anyone to love me if I am not myself around them?
I only try to censor myself around children. |

Depends on how comfortable I am with whom I'm with. With my friends I'm loud, with my family I'm loud, but when I first meet someone I'm kind of awkward and shy.

I'm usually really awkward and shy. I have a lot of anxiety, so that's why. Usually, if I'm with my friends I feel more comfortable and relaxed. When I meet someone knew I'll usually joke around, I don't like to be too serious with strangers. In a sense, that lets me know if I want to talk to them again, because if they don't get my sarcasm they probably won't enjoy being around me much.

Well I'm really shy and introverted and I hate being in public so I stay at home as much as possible. When I do go out I'm nervous and paranoid. I'm much more comfortable around a small group of people and they have to be people that I know really well. I certainly don't go out trying to meet new people and when people try to get to know me I usually push them away. I think I've gotten worse as I've grown older, not better. I guess that's why I like spending so much time on the internet. I can be annonymous online which suits me just fine.

I don't act any differently in public than I do privately with people I know. I'm loud, talkative, and I'm not afraid to say what's on my mind, even if it's inappropriate to say in public. But, around strangers, I tend to talk less, because it seems awkward, but, if that person talks to me, I'd try to get to know that person and I'll act how I normally act around other people.

It really depends on my mood. And it depends on who I am hanging with too. But I usually act normal, I can be loud sometimes but it's usually at a loud place and it depends on the rules that place have (ie Library, school). So I'm usually quiet and keep to myself.
