I have something that i just need to get off my chest. This has been eating away at me for quite some time.
There are things in life that I hate about how other people act. One of those things that i greatly dislike is how people judge others before they give a person a chance. I'm not pointing fingers at anyone in particular, but it really bugs me.
For example, there are parts of my life that I don't like at all and I don't normally talk about them. I've been judged most of my life because of these things. (If you want to know about these things just ask and I will fill you in). I'm not a bad guy and I've never done anything horribly wrong. I just don't see why people don't take the time to get to know me and because of past actions they think of me in certain ways. I've never really had friends and it just really sucked that people judged me. I wish i could have said that on Friday nights i "went with the guys" to a football game. I wish i would have gone to homecoming more than just my senior year of high school. I wish people would have looked deeper and found out that I'm actually a really nice guy. I wish that people would take a chance to get to know others before they judge them. Some fo the best guys are over looked because of how they act in public, how they dress, o rhow much money they have.
Don't take this as I'm trying to make people feel sorry for me. That's the last thing I want. I just want people to stop judging others because of how they look, act, or past actions that some people may think are "un-cool". However, I don't think that will ever happen because there are too many stereotypes that people use to judge others.

really ironic, but i totally posted about a similar topic. i wasent the one being judged in mine, but its about being judged in general, and how almost everyone judges people. ive been judged before and know how ur feeling.i dont know what the past events were, but this is how i look at things; what happened, happened. you just gotta learn from your mistakes. they make up a big part of who you are and everyone screws up a few times. people shouldnt look at others pasts' and judge them accordingly. they need to just take time to figure out who they really are inside, because a lot of times, it doesnt reflect what may have happened in the past.
I agree 100%. I know you dont want people feeling sorry for you but, being that i know how you feel, i am sorry that because of the way people judge, you didnt get as much out of your past as you wanted. I hope, though, that being in college and living the next step of your life will give you a fresh start and great opportunities for lasting memories.
Wow. Pretty strong topic. I feel that everyone can relate to this somehow or another. The thing is...most of the people that judge others are ones that have been judged themselves. It's rather annoying. I agree with you on every aspect of this!
I'll admit it, I have judged people before. I believe that everyone at a certain point in time has done it, and we all know that it's not a good thing to do. I've been judged so much to the point that I began changing myself to what I thought other people would want me to be like! I'm back to being myself now and I could care less about whether people are judging me or not because it's not going to change who I really am! I'm glad that you stayed yourself during those times that it was truly hard for you--congrats on being yourself!
