Yes, it's an awkward situation. It's interesting that you would describe your self-affected appearance as "creative" in one instance, but "colorful" in another. I suspect others may see things differently, and that is the real issue.

No need to answer here, but have you asked yourself....are you trying to attract attention, or are you trying to hide the real "you" behind the facade?

In any case, you are more than likely correct in assessing the facilitators thoughts. There is nothing to be gained by confronting him. You can put the issue to rest by simply sending him a message saying you have reconsidered, and would like to withdraw your name ....thanks for the consideration, etc. etc. Everyone can then breathe a sigh of relief and go about their lives.

Good luck !
