How many of you pretend to be cool?

Sometimes, boy or girl, they don't want to express their true feeling at outside, even they like the person who standing in front of them. They always pretend to be "cool", casual, or even careless. How many of you even pretend to be "cool", even you saw the person you like, but you won't express your true feeling toward him/her?

No, I don't...tend to care. xD I don't tend to act stupid just because society, or the people around me seem to believe it's "good". They don't tend to be very...what's the word? Er...wise, according to how people should live their lives. Expression, hey, I'm all about expression. I used to lie alot, but that wasn't because it was uncool to be myself...it was because it wasn't very smart to tell the truth at the time (it was crazy times, hush). Nowadays, I just prefer to be quick about how I go about things, but stay laid back about life in general. *shrugs* In all honesty, I'm quite pleased to be the weird kid on the block.

I remember when I was much younger I would try to make myself look cool. So I would have combed my hair in a weired cool style or wear certain types of clothers etc. But now after realising that this is not what makes a person I have changed. I act like me and if persons dont like it well that is them. They are not my friends. So i like me for me. Trying to be cool will only land a person with the wrong type of friends.

I don't have to pretend I am cool because I AM cool.....Hahahaha, I am just kidding. I think everyone has gone through that at some point in your life where you try to act they way you think someone else sees you or a way you want them to see you. But I think it is more of a kid/teen thing. I think once you reach a certain age you somewhat grow out of it. Now I know not everyone does you still have the ones that will never grow up and out of it but for the most of us once you get older you reach a point where it becomes to much like a job to pretend anymore and you just start being yourself and realize that if someone doesn't like you for that then to hell with them.

I think part of me is always pretending in front of people, even friends. Come on, we're youth, we're rebellian. although we're different, but we want to show that clearly, sharply, we want to be cool, all the time. But in essence, come on, it's just fake, none sense.
