A few times, but they just didn't know me. I am introspective a lot, and when I think, my eyebrows sometimes mush together, making me appear unapproachable.
-
Yes ... it seems that many people fear highly skilled martial artists ... despite the fact that I am a "pacifist" ... not a "pass a fist" ...
-
Yeah, one of my friends told me that it took her a few months before she was confident enough to approach me. Lol. I always thought I seemed pretty approachable.. psh. Though I have worked on it since then..
-
Yes. Several people. I am not a fighter but I am pretty good with my mouth and it tends to intimidate some. I have actually slowed down over the years. Pretty mellow now.
-
In high school a guy that I was kind of afraid of (he looked mean and scary) told me one day he was afraid of me. We became good friends.

i was giving an old gf a stalking look and was approaching as if i would pounce... she said I looked like a wolf or something and i laughed, she said i was scaring her... maybe i was misleading with the playful gesture.
-
Yeah...I was a bit reckless when I was younger. Used to mouth off quite a bit. I think I was looking for a way to get rid of my frustrations and anger.
-
My husband says I made him nervous in the beginning but I don't think anyone is afraid of me.
-
Only after I eat Mexican food;)
-
Yes and it makes me wonder why
-
YES but it's not a nice feeling when people say things so you won't get mad
-
Hahahahahahaha!!! No, not ever...I would be amused by that though. :D
-
Many times, I'm a big guy.
-
A had a girl tell me she was intimidated by me because I had so many friends. Weird.
-
Yes and I will never understand it. Some people just have preconceived notions about long-haired metal heads based entirely on preconceived notions about this stereotype that simply are not true.
-
Two people..my mom many years ago..she told me that my intensity and focus scared her sometimes. Years later a co-worker told me that my ability to focus on my work and shut everything else out was offputting and sometimes frightening. I thought each time.."how weird"! :)
-
Yes, my niece always tells me "I'm scared of you. You are too strict."
-
Nahhh. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
-
Nope, don't think so. There's not much to fear in me, a skinny, long haired guy ...That is, unless they really piss me off. There is actually one of my classmates who respects me because he made me.. pretty mad, some time ago
-
Yes, those silly rabbits.
-
Yes most of my cousins and my younger bro
-
Yes one of my old friends was scared of talking to me for a while. I got off to a bad start at first cause he saw what my temper was like. ¬_¬
-
yup:P they said they were scared of me cause i was too happy and smiled alot :)
-
yes
-
Yes... Prior to last position. I had a friend I spent many a morning before work, and lunches with, talking and playing cards. But, if I stood outside her cube, looking over, or IN the cube, somewhat "over her shoulder" she would be extremely nervous, and ask me to sit. I'm a big guy (6-9), and she KNEW I am a "teddy bear", but she couldn't stand to see me standing, especially when she was sitting.
-
Many times. I'm a big guy who doesn't smile much.
-
No, I am not very intimidating. I have not had anyone be afraid 'of' me. I have been told by people that they are afraid of making me angry though.
