Hi all.Wow, this is a little random , but when you meet people for the first time to ever want to just tell them upfront about your multi cultural up bringing without awkwardly having to phrase things to avoid sounding ’stuck up’ or only half answering questions on purpose. This may have been addressed on the site before but I couldn’t find it.Any way, This year I have meet so many new people, but none of them really know me because I don’t want to come off the wrong way by saying to much. It is so frustrating sometimes.  After I meet some one or are friends with them a while there are still seem to be a number of important details that they don’t know because I never told them. This lack of connection then  puts a strange invisible limit or superficiality on the friendship which never seems to go away. Sometimes I just wish I could spit it all out right away without having to play the “what is appropriate to tell them” game.mmm.. Am I weird or do other people feel this way too?

    I Know I hate that, especially because they never tell you what to say, like you are supposed to have all these wonderful sentences ready to be said for their amusement floating around in your head :D

    I agree many times they are people who want to know more and wish they had been able to travel, but they make me feel terribly uncomfortable.

    It’s almost as if I were better, or more…I hate that. No matter how much I try to play things down they seem to get more excited by the second. I never felt as if I were more or better than anybody, I deslike people who put me on a pedestal.

    My best friend was like that in the beginning…and sometimes later too, so I do know from personal experience that positive comes from it.

    It still doesn’t make it any less annoying :D
