Should i start showing my true self

all my life I alway been so freaking nice even when thing was bad I alway try to be nice and cheerful I thought that would make life better. and sometime it did make life a bit better. but with each passing year my life get worst and worst like today I...

think I lost the girl of my dream. I alway try to be nice and caring. am tired of people talking stupid to me I really dont like that but each time I walk away. so many people try to fight me cause I dont talk a lot and they think am a punk and each time I WALK AWAY!. people dont think I can fight cause am skinny but I can hit people hard but I keeep walking away. people think am scare of a lot of thing cause I dont do it but am not scare of nothing. my family know am like a thug or a gangsta but I alway try to act nice and cool. but not that working out for me should I start acting like a thug/gangsta?. or should I keep going with the nice and cool thing

you should start acting like yourself.. a normal human being. NOT a thug. LAME.

Act like yourself hun ...

you sound like a little kid, I lost the girl of my dream now you want to act tough because you're hurt??? just calm down and move on with your life

nope wrong I dont get hurt

you can lie to yourself all you want but that isn't going to make your problems go away, you are clearly hurt you wouldn't be making such a big deal out of this situation if you weren't.

Thug / gangsta is a bad / probably dangerous road to go - your choice.

ok maybe I am hurt but dang man what can I do

Be yourself, don;t even let these ideas cross your mind

It's okay to feel. If you hurt it's a normal thing, so don't stress so much about it. If the two of you aren't together, it just wasn't meant to be. When something bad happens to you, you can't just instantley give up on yourself and who you are, don't be like that, just stay positive and move on. You don't sound like a kid by the way, it's understandable that your sad but don't be a bad person because of it. You should always be yourself, just don't be a thug or a gangsta... that's rediculous.

Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation. Your character is what you really are while your reputation is merely what others think you are. - Dale Carnegie

stop caring what others think, even if we all do this a lot, even me, we have to STOP CARING

Remember that it takes more strength to walk away and forgive and forget than it does to fight and make yourself look like an idiot. You should be nice (if that is the real you) but assertive. You don't need to be a floor mat. Your needs should be above all elses.
