Alphaba Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 My male friend who I hang out with and chat with sometimes called me a weirdo today 😆 I replied with ‘I am’ to which he replied ‘you are’ is this a good sign or a bad sign if someone thinks you’re weird? Link to post Share on other sites

If you two kid around a lot it seems like friendly banter. Is this the same man?: Link to post Share on other sites
MsJayne Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 What was the context of the conversation? 'Wierdo' isn't usually aimed as an insult, it's usually more an acknowledgement that you're quirky and outside the box, and there's nothing wrong with that. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Alphaba Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 We were talking about a mutual acquaintance who is known to be a very strange individual, I joked that me and him were best mates and that’s when he said weirdo 😆 Link to post Share on other sites

You can freely throw around the term “weirdo” when conversing with those who hold a special place in your heart, like your siblings or dear comrades, and in laid-back discussions. Do you embrace your inner weirdo? 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Author Alphaba Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 Ha ha I certainly do! I think most people regard me as a bit different. I don’t spose I mind really 😆 1 Link to post Share on other sites

In a world where there's way too much judgement and intolerance it's nice that some of us just accept others without having to be told to do so. Plus it definitely was said as a term of endearment 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Author Alphaba Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 No… definitely not my taste. My furniture’s mostly second hand, quirky bits that no one else wanted 😆 1 Link to post Share on other sites

LuckyM Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 If it is said with a smile, all right. If not, well, who knows? Weirdo is NOT a compliment where I come from. Derogatory, nasty. if you think someone is normal, you dont know them well enough. (Because they are not.) Usually. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
