Being Misunderstood

Improved Essays
Most people don’t truly understand the misunderstood. Being misunderstood is hard because most people will “judge a book by its cover”. In other words, they really don’t know much about the person before they make a judgement on them. This is hard because everybody does it. Everybody is misunderstood in one way or another, but you may not know it. In life we will all experience this many times. Nobody can know every little thing about you. They will just observe something that is different and not the same as you or others and possibly use it against you. This happens a lot to “outsiders”. Outsiders are the people who aren't popular or noticed and they are the ones who are misunderstood the most. They like to be more on their own and don’t hang out in big groups. Other groups or even just other individuals will maybe give that person a hard time or just say stuff about them behind their back. These “outsiders” could have something going on in their life or they could just be someone who doesn’t fit in and other people don’t understand or know anything about them to make a judgement about them. …show more content…
Who has the harder life boys or girls? This is 100 percent your opinion, but girls are the ones that really have the harder life. Although boys may have a rough life, girls just have so many other problems that a lot of people can’t interpret. Unlike men, girls take stuff a lot harder the majority of the time. They will have their feelings hurt easier and are more insecure about most things. Girls are a lot more misunderstood towards boys because they don’t necessarily like to talk to guys about problems that are going on in their life or they could just be afraid of sharing their feelings. Most guys don’t take things that people say to them too hard. Most of them think nothing of

They do not know what, when, or why they should do it. If a person is having a difficult time grasping concepts and ideas, they hold onto any example they can. Like those in The Crucible, the girls follow Abigail’s lead because they have absolutely no idea how to cope with the situation they are in, or they'll have to face the consequences.…

    These are some of the mis-judgments, opinions, and viewpoints others compile before getting to know me, which is certainly untrue. How can one possibly even have a clue of who someone is, without even getting to meet them first? There is so much more to myself than what I may look like on the outside to people.

As they say, “Don't judge a book by it’s cover.…
