Honestly, I've been told in the past that I am rather intimidating. I am a direct, to the point type person IRL who doesn't sugar coat things and doesn't believe in small talk. I tell things like they are and I don't take people's feelings into consideration. In fact, I used to have a saying: "I ain't a therapist so it isn't my job to care about your feelings". This personality of mine combined for my penchant towards wearing all black and always having a stoic look on my face might be off putting to people... IDK
Regardless, I will try to do better. I can't make any promises that I will be successful because when I get into one of my moods, I don't hold back. It's hard for me to change on my own with nobody to guide me so we will see what happens.
No promises.

I getcha. While I try to avoid wearing all black to prevent unwanted stares and feeling like I'm some sort of whiny emo/goth teen, I do always have a sort of stoic look or even a constant frown on my face.
I just want to avoid the whole looking like I'm going to go ballistic on someone at any moment look, I suppose.
