yes, I'm a cop, so I have a certain look of pain in my face from the things I've seen.

But I'm a really nice person I think. I have a helluva sense of humor, but socially I notice, I have no problems interacting quite quickly in any situation.

I think it's an "aura" as one poster said. Also it's how you speak IMO. Not to say it's a measure of intelligence, because alot of intelligent people are inarticulate, so it's a put off.

It's just a way you carry yourself. I guess it's a hard question to answer for soemone who doesent have a problem with it.

But it's a great question.

Kudos.

The only aura I get from your type is flashing red and blue lights that serve only one purpose: to blind everyone on the road and possibly cause a seizure.

If a person doesnt know you ,I find that they will judge you on..

1)personal appearance
2)the people you are hanging around with.


If you look good but are hanging around with a bunch of people who are deemed to be clowns ,you will be placed in the clown category too.
or the loser category.


other times you can get more respect if people see you have money.
They might see you rolling in a nice car and suddenly revise their opinion.

When people know or sense that you aren't afraid of anything, they tend not to want to fuck with you. They want to follow you.

I was described by a family member as a big mean looking fella

she was calling a dude I was gonna pick up from the trainstation, I had no idea how the person looked but he spotted me right away.

Have also been mistaken for bouncer more then once

It has to do with the size of a given dude's cajones.

that's along with the theory that you are the sum total of the 5 people you hang around most. Assuming you have at least that many friends.

or... avoid you

Manner and self assuredness, having high amounts of the latter lead to a very particular former which people immediately recognise and regard.
