QotD: But Everyone Likes Me!

Why do you think it is some people don't get along with you?

I have a strong personality. (That's a nice way of saying that, deep down inside, I really am a bitch.) It can't be helped. I come from a long line of strong women.

I'm also fairly intelligent, moderately well-read, and have a solid grasp of the English language in both written and spoken forms. (I'm modest, too.) I ask questions and like to challenge (most) preconceptions. And I'm not shy about sharing my opinion if it involves a subject about which I am extremely passionate.

I march to the beat of my own drum, and I don't often pay attention to what others may think. This often intimidates people, though I'm not entirely sure why it would.

Oh, and I'm slowly losing my ability to fake niceness. Seriously. I told my husband the other night, "There are a lot of people I will be kind to only because they are loved by people I love." And it's true. I could even rattle off a list for you, if you asked nicely.
