I hate how everyone bashes me just because I'm emo?

Question

I am emo, so what. Actually I shouldn't label myself that because people will think I'm "seeking attention" which I'm not... I love how people judge you without even knowing you..I will be in the halls and someone will be like EMO ..... Wtf? I guess I don't get it

Answer 1

I wouldn't label myself either. Emos are just like other people, just they listen to diff music, and dress differently. Everybody nowadays is trying to act "cool" and preppy, that's why they do that, they don't think emo is "cool". I think it's awesome. I respect everyone, and everyones choices. As long as your fine with who you are, then go on with it.

Answer 2

those kind of people suck!!! they arnet open minded enough to see that thats they way you are. If they met you they would probably like you. of course i dont know that cuz i dont know you!!

Answer 3

Answer 4

its ok if that

is who you are

then i think

its fine

its okay

Answer 5

"Seeking attention." No way. WHY would anyone think you're seeking attention? By making your presence known with an insipid comment seeking comfort while on a website centered around QUESTIONS, and not publicly whining?

Answer 6

There is this fat emo kid at school and all my friends make fun of him because he is arrogant and thinks he is tough.  

Answer 7

You should try being introverted, people beat us up and refuse to be friends with us for that.  If only people could learn to accept others for their differences.

Answer 8

s***w them.

do you like yourself? do you have family and friends that love you?

that's really all that matters.

Answer 9

I haven't been in high school for quite a while, but it hasn't been so long that I've forgotten what it was like. Those cookie cutter people judge you because they're afraid to step out of their little box. It's easier to be like everyone else but you should always be true to yourself. Next time someone says something to you, try giving them a smile and saying " thank you". They won't know what to think.
