Given your writing style and personality type what traits or tendecies do you possess that the members of this forum would find surprising if they met you in-person?

To be fair I will go first.

I am extremely organized and a relentless task master.

I am a perfectionist with everything except for cleaning my apartment. :thinking:

I'm not very cuddly- I don't like for people to touch my back even! :laugh:

I never cry or really even look sad- an unhappy expression from me is merely neutral! :)

I'm kind of a bitch- to the point where people borrow me if they need someone to bitch someone out in real life :cry: - not that I'm really MEAN or CRUEL, but more that I'm kind of very assertive and say what needs to be said- I'm more restrained here ;)

I don't believe this can be answered. I have no idea how other people see me.

I am pretty loud-mouthed, silly and irreverent with my friends. And I'm (almost) never serious.

Also, I'm probably nicer IRL than I come across here. Maybe. Less blunt anyway? :unsure:

People tend to think I'm annoying, obnoxious and full of wacky ideas. My mother even thinks this. My former art teacher, however (who is also an abstract expressionist), enjoyed my company.

I'm a lot of things, so it's hard to remember at times. =)

But here's one: I can be cruel and arrogant.

I am really attention-seeking, and not really power-drive at all.

I have a tendency not to talk much in school. I spend a lot of time waiting and listening, sort of looking down at my hands. I'll talk more openly if there's just the teacher and a few students before class starts, but I become more reserved once there are more than 5 or 6 people in the room.

I tend to panic if I'm told to get into a group, because I'm worried I won't make good choices about group members (since I can't administer good tests, or even know what qualities will be beneficial in group members), and I'm not sure which people want to work with me, because I don't even know most of them. I don't like being rushed to do this, because I usually can't do it quickly the way other people can. It seems ridiculous for them to expect me to know how to do this without more specific instructions.

I'm not sure these are surprising, however.

I tend to be somewhat of a "hell raiser". I have a reputation for doing the craziest things, and emerging unscathed.

Btw you're clearly an ENTJ (from your pic especially)

Do you think so? I've been pondering this myself. By what means have you come to this conclusion?

In real life, some people can't believe I'm an introvert! :thumbup: I guess I can fool the best of them when I need to! ;)

Haha, I really have no idea how people on here see me either. Maybe some people will be surprised to see that I am a likable person. ;)

IRL, people don't think I am an introvert and only a couple of people know that I totally avoid confrontations.

I don't think people would be that surprised my seeing me in real life, they might expect me to be more talkative or with more of a tendency to talk in a long, complex way.
