When a lot of people first meet me they think I'm the dumb-intimidating type. I'm not exactly sure why. I'm athletic, but usually I wear long sleeves or sweatshirts. I don't think I come off as aggressive or mean. There's been many that have told me that initially they were scared to talk to me, because they thought I'd go off and/or hit them. It's absolutely mindboggling. I can kind of get the dumb angle. I don't read much (dyslexia is a bitch. oddly enough, some also refuse to believe I have it), only try hard in my studies when it's necessary (professors call me out on this often), and I guess all of these combined with my personality leads to assumptions.
