What can I say that makes them see I am not perfect, and not a snob!?
Question Posted Tuesday March 15 2011, 10:45 pm
I honestly can say that I am not perfect. A lot of people think I am though, and its embarassing. I have a larger house in a wealthy neighborhood, I get straight A's, and I am extremely thin! But to counter, I am not good at sports and I dont think I am attractive. When people tell me that I am perfect, I say stuff "No, I am not" and that makes people think I am snotty for some reason. What can I say that makes them see I am not perfect, and not a snob!?!?

Don't let their words define who you are, and don't change. you are being modest, which is great. If you are not snotty, and people are saying that anyways, they are prob just jealous. They want to lower your confidence. It's great that you know that you aren't perfect. If it's that annoying, just start telling the person your imperfections, that you aren't ashamed of (not good at sports, my nose is to big, my parents fight, my parents won't let me date, the guy I like turned me down...etc) of course don't say what I said unless some of it is true :P come up with your own. But stay true to yourself, don't let them make you believe you are stuck up. [ britZ67's advice column | Ask britZ67 A Question ]

Except..I'm overweight..and I don't live in or even near wealthy neighborhood but I do have a house...but anyways! Try saying that they are perfect and not you! That's what I told my friends....and they stopped...I didn't like it either....just tell them no ones is perfect and that just because saying the truth doesn't mean your a snob! XD

If you don't want someone to think you are a snob then all you can do is just ignore them. Pay no mind to what other people think. Be yourself [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]

If you wanted to be perfect, you'd care what they think. Try it. [ xomegaroni's advice column | Ask xomegaroni A Question ]
