It seems that lately people have taken to calling me cold. I don't even know what to do or say to that. I am not very open with anyone, but I do not think I should be called cold. Maybe I am cold. I am very bad with people even family and friends.

I have felt bad for a really long time. I cry every day. I just wish people wouldn't call me cold.

((ABS9988)) - I agree they shouldn't assume your silence or lack of emotions are "coldness". Maybe your illness is making you numb or you might not be comfortable showing emotions for what ever reason.

I'm thinking they're expecting something, so when they don't get it, they assume the worst. When I was younger I was painfully shy and sometimes people would refer to me as 'stuck up' which was so far from the truth - I was just too shy to respond to or approach people.

It would be good if you could tell them not to assume you're cold. Stick up for yourself or maybe tell them how you're feeling.

its not right for them to be calling you cold just becasue your not very open. everyone is different, some people are more open than others, but even so it doesnt give them the right to call you that. i wouldnt listen to them because they dont know what your going through.

how do you mean that you very bad with people even family and friends?

my advice is not to listen to people who call you cold.

ABS,

I'm sorry you are called cold, or judged as cold. I used to be called "Aloof" and told that I looked down on people. The fact was that I was preoccupied with things that were happening to me and I spent many years without glasses and had to tilt my head back and squint to see anyone too far away LMAO.

I hope peple realise that you aren't any of the judgements they make, and that you have things on your mind. People who are able to process quickly don't understand those of us who have to deal with mental and emotional consitpation; they also don't realise there is a pill for physical consitpation, but not emotional.

Take care and know that here you are just who you are and are accepted for that. Most of us understand what you are going through and how it affects you,

Greetings,

You cannot rely on others to tell you who you are. Especially in a world, like today, where people's view against others can be more than bias, corrupt, and well, self-serving.

Be as positive as you can be and fate will take care of the rest.

Have a good one.
