Do you make anyone nervous
Jump to: Newest in thread
"Yes people are often nervous around me and also Mr N. Neither of us really know why and once people know us they treat us with the disdain we truly deserve "
Harsh. You look like you're an absolute hoot to be around  |

It has been mentioned. I appear to have one of those resting faces. I'm quite nice really.
Someone thought I was a police officer once. Judging by what he told me afterwards he probably had a reason to be nervous.  |

"On here..no but I'm told I'm better in person , a little different to how I may come across here it seems.
Why is that I wonder? "
Sceptism?...plus I can be a bit matter of fact |

So no. And if you're shy and hot that just makes me all the more chatty |

I was told I scared someone the other week.
I don’t think its a good character trait to want to make people nervous, but I appreciate with how some people are and look its inevitable. |

I’ve been told that I make some of my team nervous just by reputation of being very knowledgable at what I do. Part of my role is assessing other’s competence and I work hard to put people at ease. Nothing makes me happier than when a colleague comes out of an assessment with me saying that they didn’t know why they were nervous in the first place |

I think people make themselves nervous a lot of the time based on assumptions they make about a person. Often they're nervous of people who they think are better than them in some way, judging by the number of 'out of my league' threads and comments

Well he is a foot taller than me and a bit of a brick shithouse. So yeah, totem pole if you’re being polite |

"Yes.
Some people act like I have Medusa powers.
Kids on the other hand, don't even know em and they give me hugs."
It’s because you see eye to eye with kids. …literally, …. And You’re on their level…..
*this is too easy with the height jokes.  |

I think so. I'm a big guy; 22" neck, 58" chest, quite some way past 20 stone, shaved head, fairly big beard and often on a big motorbike...
I'm alright though, I look like a bit of a thug but I've read those Richard Osman books and I like to go to sleep listening to The Shipping Forecast |

"Sometimes if I don’t look them in the eye but consistently around the centre of their forehead. Try it, it proper freaks people out! "
Like you see a red spot ? And eagerly waiting for the shot to happen ?  |

It’s quite amusing as their eyes tend to follow yours despite the fact it’s impossible to see your own forehead.
I do it to a very annoying supplier I have to have lengthy meetings with and I’ve even had him subconsciously rubbing at the spot I’m staring at.  |

Yes I do. I don't mean to I must just give out a fuck off vibe or something. I think I would say I'm an introvert and quite shy. A few of my past team/colleagues have told me that others find me scary or are at least wary of me. I always take my work seriously, but I was a fair boss, no overt favourites. |

I don't engage in small talk for the sake of it. Not with strangers anyway. I know it's a supposed social mechanism to put people at ease, but for me it has a counter affect and sets me on edge.
Anything I say to strangers is either consequential, informative, factual, instructional, or inquisitive.
My RBF has its own RBF.
So in answer to the OP, probably yes, because of the above. |

Probably but not the way you think, I’m blessed with a face of a serial killer, which puts a lot of people off and unnerves them. Helps in Morrisons though people tend to move out of my way.

Sitting down in front of me in my formal role makes people nervous and that can then work against them.
I deliberately employ simple psychological techniques designed to put people at ease. |

Yes, but only in certain delicious private circumstances, and in a skin-tingling, hair-raising, lip-biting, unable to look away mode.
I like the switch from vanilla to Dom. There's a way I hold myself, or a look, or a tone of voice, which seems to shift the mood instantly. I've been this way so long now it's instinct, so it isn't entirely conscious. |

Not sure you’re sorry at all |

"I usually have the opposite effect of putting people at ease which isn't always as good as it sounds.
Why would that not be good?"
Most of the time it's a positive attribute but some times people I hardly know see me as an agony uncle.
In years gone by I was always the safe friendzone option and women were always at ease asking about my more exciting friends. |
