Emo freak!?!??!?

Question

ok so i am NOT emo and never will be.

i just wear converse, have kinda emo hair style, and listen to that hardcore rock stuff, (not scream0)

but i dress totally preppy, hollister, abercrombie, american eagle. those are my usual wear.

a couple of mean b!ches keep calling me an emo freak. i normally dont care what other people think, but they used to be good friends of mine, so it gets bothersome.

what do i do?

Answer 1

labels are for soupcanssssssss

Answer 2

You're in highschool right?? Believe me, in a couple years you won't really care what people think about you.  I know now it's really pissing you off but the fact is, these girls are so insecure about themselves they have to pick on you to make themselves feel better.  And what's so wrong with being emo anyways??

Answer 3

Just tell them where to shove it, coz tbh there probably just jelous that you have a decent style, after a while they get bored, trust me i get called an emo all the time :)

Answer 4

well obviously they don't know the meaning emo.

emo is short for the word emocore, which is a type of hard rock music that has emotional lyrics.

people tend to think that the emotional lyrics in the songs mean that the people that listen to it are emotional and tend to do harm to themselves.

i'd confront those girls and tell them the meaning of emo.

and check out my source for more information.  and while you're at it, check out the meaning of prep too.

Answer 5

wow i have the same problem except its kinda reversed i wear skinny jeans and have edgy hair except im super happy and peppy! You can always confront them and tell them you dont even know me so you dont have the right to treat me this way. They will get to thinking about it cuz that sorta stuff hits the heart. And if it keeps going into the school year get the counselor to have a meeting with you guys cuz in my school we can file a harrassment charge on people. We take things like this really seriously.

Answer 6

OMG!

Same here

I am a total prep and this kid in my grade is always calling me and emo freak and an emo luver. All becuase i like falloutboy! Hes always ssaying, Hey Emo Luver, gonna eat some of your meat today lunch?(he means my wrist meat even though I DONT cut my wrists) and i gets annoying!

SO...

I just tell him this...

"Yea, me and emos are kinda tight...Oh and I heard about last night at the malll...Build A Bear, righteous."

He usually just shuts up and leaves me alone.

Good Luck!

Answer 7

dressing preppy is not at all emo. show them that ur not as low as they r and ignore wht they say DONT take the p**s out of wht they wear cos then u will get into a huge fight and fights always turn out for the worse in the long term. belittle them and if they say something like 'ur an emo' say 'ok ok then whtever u say' ignore them and they will leave u be.

good luck. xx

Answer 8

just ignore them because when people make fun of you it means that they are jealous of you or that they are the ones with really low self-esteem or you could just tell them off and then they will leave you alone.

Answer 9

dont listen to anyone people are never happy with the way others look so who cares let them talk there just jealous because they cant express themselves dont worry in time they will find someone else to bother

Answer 10

You know what you should do? Tell them straight in the face,

"You know what, I don't give a rat's a$$ what you think of me. You can call me whatever names all you want, but I know who I am, and so do my real friends."

Honestly, just don't give in to what they say. They don't even know what they're talking about, and for all you and I know, they're probably another one of those b!tches who stereotype people who are different. The best you can deal with them is to say these very words and ignore them. They can go on through the rest of their lives insulting others, and rot to h**l when they're done.

Answer 11

People make fun of other people because they feel lower than you. They feel like you are more pretty smart beautiful exc exc When thiis happens to me I tell my self I know what they are saying is not true so I do not care what other people think. If you tell your self that soon you will beleve it.

Telling the other girls would do one of two things eather they would quit and relize that you will not put up with that stuff or it would get worse personally I would ingore them.

Answer 12

Say... Im not an emo freak... im a girl who stands up for herself and doesnt let ur bitchass walk all over me. so get a life other than messing up peoples lives. cuz todays the last time ur messing with mine.

Answer 13

just be like "don't be calling me things you know nothing about"

good luckk

:]

Answer 14

Ignore.

'I know you are but what am I?'

or just say 'Fnck you' and smile

Answer 15

they could be intimidated by you.. girls from the age of around 13-17 are a pain. they're mean. just find a group of friends who like you for who you are and who have the same morals as you. sure sometimes the teasing gets to us.. but that's when you smile at them and block out anything they say. because you know who you are, and they're still trying to be paris hilton or some other hollywood icon. you aren't mean. the friends worth fighting for love you for the person you are.. not what you wear. watch the sisterhood of the traveling pants.. you'll see what i mean. i'm perfectly content in old jeans, a black polo, skater shoes, and my hair up in a messy bun. you have to be the judge of whether to be the person you are, or whether to be the person your friends need you to be. you can be both. but never lose sight of who you are on the inside. be there for your friends. those girls will move on and grow up hopefully. just believe in yourself. good luck. keep smiling :)
