Online friends who hear my voice for the first time think I'm like 18..then when they actually see my face, they think I'm 13 =-=
Along with everyone thinking I'm a helpless loner with no friends. Haha..I hate it when they just assume that. In reality, I have friends but I'm distant from them. I'm an introvert so I don't care about being alone, I got yaoi fan fictions on attack on titan mudda fuggers 0u0

People assume I'm a bimbo when in reality I am more intelligent then average person. Its just that I'm not a showoff and don't need to prove myself to anybody.
I'm in my late 20s but people always assume I'm 18-20, and will consequently treat me with less respect until they find out my true age.

That's the saddest thing I've ever read.
Wow, this is so like me. Most of the time when I'm around people I don't have much to say, but I can be super obnoxious around my close friends. As far as acting tough, if I don't at least pretend I'm sassy, I always end up being the butt of everybody's jokes.

Same, and I hate it. I get that people joke around with their friends, but some of them can be downright mean.

A lot of people think I'm mean or quiet when I'm not really either, I think I just have a bit*h face.___. And I'm so short people think I'm younger than I really am xD

Keep the wolves away
That I`m unfriendly. People seem to be wary when I go into a store or use public transportation. Then when out of some form of necessity there is an exchange of words, you can see them sighing relief. Its not their fault though, my bodylanguage doesn`t match my personality.
Also that I`m negative about everything. Its true that a lot things in this world bother me, in that sense I`m negative. But i comes from seeing potential in the world around me not utilized. In the end it just comes from wanting people to be happy and having a clear route to realize their potential. I`m very sensitive to even the smallest of obstructions thrown in their ways by (mostly ignorant and unpurposedly (that can`t be a word)(to many of "()"?) (deal with it)) others.

A lot of people have told me they thought I was quiet when they first met me, but when they get to know me it's the complete opposite. It's just hard for me to really do me that hard in front of people I don't know. Also, if I don't feel like I'm ready to make a good first impression I'll kinda be quiet and avoid making much of an impression for the time being (other than the impression that i'm quiet lol). If I'm gonna show you who I am I'm gonna do it right you know??

The Raggedy Man
When I was in high school, people assumed that I was gay because I wasn't an overly masculine man, didn't have a GF, showed zero interest in girls, generally hung around women and the "gay" crowd.
When in actuality, I had zero interest in a relationship in HS and in College. My friends actually happened to be gay and didn't know prior to befriending them (rather they didn't come out until afterwards). Females at my school were typically easier to befriend than the men at my school, as the men seemed like douchebags.

Many things :3
Here are a couple.
People who aren't that familiar with me tend to think I'm this innocent, sweet little angel who would never ever say a dirty joke or cuss at all. I find this slightly weird considering the fact that I have an "emo" hairstyle and my wardrobe consists mainly of black, band tees, beanies, flannels, and combat boots or converse.
However, people who really know me.. hah... I might as well be the spawn of Satan himself.
People who first meet me seem to think that I am older then my actual age, the most commonly guessed being 17.
This may be my height's fault though :3

I think, speaking more seriously, the biggest misconception about me is my own brain. The capabilities of my thoughts are not so much underestimated, but there is an assumption there that there is a limit. My mind wanders and I can often come out saying the wrong thing. My words can be manipulated to sound arrogant and I can intentionally sound like one if I want to. I think I'm comparable to a cave, really. Come and you will find gold, but the exact amount depends on how far you venture into it and how willing you are to possibly waste your time searching.
I am often a failure to myself, but I don't necessarily care about that. It would be nice not to be, but I think it's important for everybody to feel that way at least once in their life, otherwise they wouldn't ever improve. That's another thing you could twist to make me sound horrible, by the way. I think I need to work on myself a lot more and continue developing, like a network. I'm a network and I need to be the fastest. I just strive to be the fastest network, so when you connect, you don't have to worry at all about slowness.
Everybody should strive for perfection but be able to cope with not being perfect, because I really think you need to have a balance between the two. If you just want to be perfect, than you're less likely to reach it, and will kind of become a fabricated version of perfection. If you strive to be perfect but remain humble and do not even think about it very much, you can live in peace with yourself but always improve, reaching for that perfection which may never be, but you can still hope for.
My point is that, if you have a balance between perfection and imperfection, you can always strive for better and never stop improving as a person, even if you never actually reach perfection. In fact, the biggest misconception in the world may be that perfection exists, which is another reason I believe there needs to be a balance between reaching that and being comfortable with your current state.
It is incredibly difficult for me to speak about things like this, as I am actually rather insecure. I try my best to speak with the most perfection renditions of the English language only so I can be comfortable with myself and formal in the most ridiculous way possible. Formality can be awful at times, but it can also be fun. It helps me express myself without becoming any less of myself, which eliminates all of my insecurities. This is not me being at all negative, by the way. I'm happy and I'm excited! That is all.

~Impossomble~
People seem to think I'm a quiet, shy, reserved person who has really soft feelings during the day at school because of appearance, dark eyes, and frown I wear to school. If only they knew me on a Saturday night, I'm the complete opposite 
cannedcommunism
idk man
OK before I start Imma post a pic
People usually think I'm an emo (can't tell by this pic since I was wearing my at-home sweats) because I usually wear a black hoodie, t-shirt, jeans, & chucks, and I'm very quiet. That's usually the case around people I barely know. I'm normally very distant around people I don't know too well, but once I warm up to them and am comfortable around them, IM CRAZY ***** WATCH THE **** OUT BRO
So yeah I'm very particular.
