First off, and I don't mean this to be rude, but you meant the other 95%, right?


people who think i'm shy- 90%
people who think i'm rude- 5%
people who think i'm "cute"- 5%
TOTAL = 100%

maths is not my strong point (dyscalculia) but i think i got this one right.


Oops!! Sorry bout that, I'm the one who screwed up here.

Yeah...and see I wish I'd get called "cuddly" for the exact same reason. Well, as long as it was by a member of the opposite sex.

...I hate to break it to you but if someone says you are cuddly that means you are physically attractive, and not strictly fat as you suggest. Attractiveness is not bound by weight either... but this is a discussion for another day.

There is also fugly, which variously means fat and ugly or f**kably ugly. The idea is that physical repugnancy might actually induce a more primal lust.

I forgot to mention this in my original post but "cute" seems to be the most common way of describing how I currently look. Better than "fugly" (or fugly by NH's definition) but not by much.

I didn't know that, about "fugly." O_o

And I am about 99.9% sure he was trying to be annoying. People like to piss me off by feining affection.

No one really calls me 'sweet' except Serissa.

I've been called "a sweetie" several times before. I wasn't sure why, but I thought it was a good thing and took it as a compliment.

Was I wrong to do so?

Sorry. I can be creepy. I can be crazy. I can be odd. But I'm the farthest thing from cuddly walking the Earth right now. Well, if you ask me. A few people have fun hugging me for some reason.

hmm not too many people have told me i'm cute, just when i'm being nice to them i guess , and really supportive - i'm seen as more of a vixen, actually (completely not my personality)... a really really ditzy one!

You're seen as a vixen but not because of your personality? I sincerely hope you're not complaining about that aspect. :P But being seen as ditzy would be annoying. Like, totally annoying. I think I'd just die.

Please note that I used Valley girl lingo there.

Heehee- check the "evil twin" thread! It's no cooincidence we both get called "cute" a lot!

I've been called cute, cuddly and other things, but for some reason didn't take any of them for compliments at the time...
