Why is it because I say what I think, I am crazy? email this discussion to a friend?

sldh20 (12)   ranked 9 out of 23 in crazy4 months ago

Growing up, I really did not say too much when it came to taking up for myself. At least I don't remember being that way. But, I moved from the Shenandoah Valley to Northern Virginia as soon as I graduated and I think my "craziness" came from there.

If I see someone and feel like they are full of bologna or they out and out lie to me, I will tell them so. If I have a problem with a boss, I will let them know. I am not saying, I do this nastily, I just do it. I tell people what I think. I know not everyone agrees with me and sometimes I am wrong and I do not have a problem admitting it. I like being upfront and honest with people.

I joke alot and love to smile and just about everyone I know says that I am "crazy". Not actually, but you know what I mean. I just don't understand why I have to be crazy in order to speak my mind.

I'm exactly the same. I prefer to be upfront with people. Not all people agree with me, but that's really their problem, I hate it when people walk around with a grudge for weeks before getting things off the mind. Why not just take the discussion and get things cleared out?

In my opinion it is not a craziness if you will tell them on what you felt about them and for me being honest is one of the best thing in this life"attitude" that not all of the human have that kinf of attitude as long as it will not hurt someone's feeling.......

everyone I know says that I am "crazy". Not actually,

Maybe they are just using the word in a joking way. You said yourself not actually. So I would think it was nothing and left it alone. I am glad your learning to speak up for yourself. It's the best thing to do. I like people who speak their minds.

I can definitely relate. Growing up I was very shy and as long as people left me alone, I could go on through the day without even talking to everyone. I just felt if I had nothing to say to anyone that was of importance to me or the issue at hand there was no reson for me to speak. I was a loner and stuck much to myself. Once I started getting older and reached junior high school, I became more aware of how people really are. Though not everyone is the same, there are many people that choose to act certain ways that I don't agree with. I have now become a very blunt and open speaking person. I neither am trying to be rude or sarcastic, but i have my opinion and if it is asked, I will give it honestly. I say exactly what I feel and it doesn't matter who it is, I will be the same with everyone. I'm called crazy all of the time by family, friends and strangers, but it is not being crazy. I'm just keeping it real! I say, stay the way you are. It doesn't matter what anyone thinks. Speak your mind and love who you are because it is better than getting taken advantage of because you're too nice!:-) Do your thing! Keep it real and love the fact that you speak your mind. Much respect to you!:]

I like people like you. I would rather you be honest with me, I know where I stand and am not afraid. Some times the truth hurts and I think that is what freaks people out. i think you have the right idea!

it is just that truth is always bitter to take that is why people do not like someone showing them their naked/true self. do not tell me u always welcome all the raw things told to u about u with a warm smile and not get irritated. don't just change the way u r but try putting some makeup to ur words so that the bitter things are taken with a sweet taste.all the best. REMEMBER U R NOT CRAZY. BUT OUTSPOKEN.
