Have you been called a "creep"?

What is a creep anyway?

And how do you not be one?

Augh... it just gets worse and worse...

EDIT: Yeah, I haven't been called a creep to my face either, but some people have made me feel like I must be one... it's just the worse feeling in the world. I mean, you think you're a nice guy, and people should like you, but no!

I don't recall being called a creep to my face....But I have been called a freak and a psychopath though...I was not aware prefering to wear dark colors and not having friends made one a psychopath but I guess so.

hi

relax!, you are not alone, I haven't called a "creep" in my face but I have fallen often in love with people who didn't love me back.... and I am sure they thought of me as a creep and a psycho....

bye,

I can't specifically recall being called a creep, but on many occasions people have said I'm weird, on drugs, or am evil. Not very pleasant.

i can think of many things worse than being seen as a creep.

Yes, my boss called me that in 1972. Come on, she said, don't be such a creep.

At the time I was working harder than she was, and I guess she was worried that I might be making her look lazy........that wouldn't have been hard to do, as she usually spent most of the morning trying on new dresses with her cronies in the ladies' toilets and having catty conversations with them about people she didn't like. I take it she meant definition no.5....I suppose for her, anybody doing any work was letting the side down and sucking up to the upper management.

No wonder I was a Tory! I've since become a socialist, but that doesn't mean I think it's right for a person to produce less than the value of their salary, unless it's just to even up the score when the employer has previously been paying less than the value of their labour....and that's a thing that didn't happen so much in those days, especially in the public sector. I suppose I could have slacked in lieu of compensation for being forced to work under somebody who was so spiteful and morally bankrupt, but I don't think that's quite what she had in mind.

Wether people like you or not has nothing to do with being a good guy. Bad people have made me doubt myself many times when i was younger, this was solely because i had too much trust and respect for other people.
I really dont understand why so many people here are concerned about the aproval of people that treat them BADLY. Being treated bad says more about the perpetraitor then it does about the victim.

After years of conflict you slowly start to understand that disconnecting other people from your sense of self is in your best interest or you will end up like another sheeple. The only thing you can judge yourself on are your own actions. If you are nice to another person and he spits in your face then that has nothing to do with you, but still we ask ourselves questions like what did i do to make him react like that.

Having less empathy can be a major advantage because it allows us to shut out people who dont deserve to have an influence on our inner world and still be able to form a deep connection with people under the right circumstances.

In a way having aspie traits is like having a built in filter that triggers people to show their true nature. Its actually very usefull to see who cant resist taking a shot at the weaknesses THEY perceive you to have. And the people who value those traits.

It takes more courage to be kind then to be mean. Insecure people perceive kindness as weakness.

I'm quite sure I have. I don't care, greatly. If you are attractive and pleasant seeming enough that you might be incompetently pursued by a completely well-intentioned oblivious young Aspie, then your minor discomfort is going to pale in comparison to the sheer volume of romantic successes you have and other flattering opportunities that you don't pursue.

This did, however, help push me toward Internet dating which I found much better.

I haven't been called a creep. But I have been called:
Stupid
Weird
Freak
Snitch (ha ha)

... and so on.

I've been called a "weirdo" by my own mother.

Yes, I remember my Mother telling me about a cousin of mine calling me a creep years ago when I was no more than a toddler.
Haven't been called a creep since then (that I remember), but I have been called weird, nutty, psycho, and "not right in the head". Oh, well. Maybe they weren't "right in the head", either?...

Not directly but in a previous job working the night shift my morning relief said one of the female workers called me creepy.

I was getting quite pale from working nights so maybe that's part of it.

i have not been called "a creep". however, i have been called:

creepy (different from "a creep")
weird
eccentric
strange

my parents were the first ones to call me things like that, but they were not the last. also, they liked to call me an idiot, and airhead, a dolt, and a ditz, among many other choice words. i think that's a post for The Haven though lol

No, but I feel it - the majority of my friends are online, which makes me feel really self-conscious and 'creepy'...

Very good post.
