I Am More Observant Than I Let On

...than to admit you're hurt.

My mum's always saying it as a little girl I would stand back and observe things before diving in unlike most kids I'm still the same now lol I watch n listen and I know a lot more than I let on I figure people out in an instance just...

Sometimes what a person is not saying tells me as much as what they are trying to shovel my way. I have the ability to size a person up in the first 3 minutes of conversation....vocabulary and accents give away details. I pay attention...

Here are what I believe are very obvious things that I've learned these past couple weeks on EP- in other words, I didn't have to try very hard to notice these:
1. Watching kittens toy with their prey on confessions... well, I think it...

I have always been more observant than I let on. It worked in my favor, so I took pride in it. I used to think of myself as a ghost; I would see and hear everything... but no-one would see or hear me. I used it to my advantage. I would...

I always pay attention to what's going on around me, even if it doesn't always seem that way. I guess I learned it from my dad who taught me to always be aware of my surroundings and what people are doing. Assess the situation, identify...

To be underestimated is to gain an advantage.

I notice things. Things most people will never ever expect me to see. It can be 6000 miles away, and only through email or text. Just because I don't say anything, doesn't mean I don't know things. I know a lot more than you think. And...

I guess you can say I'm not a trusting sort. I seem to be able to see things about people that others don't see. I try to warn people, but they never listen. No one wants to believe they are stupid.  I hate watching people get...

Think you know me.

Ya you think you know me.

You see right through me

Ya you think you do.

rip off my mask

didn't even bother to ask.

I'm just like the rest.

already failed the test.

why even bother with him

all he wants is my...

I can't hole up in the apartment and never come out again...my family will run a well-being check if I do.

But there are stories all over the newspapers,of robberies, muggings, shootings, holdups, kidnapping, and their ilk...I have to...

I see patterns everywhere. My natural tendency is to even create them. Playing a simple game of checkers, reversi or back gammon means I am not really in it to win it, but tidy it. It is not that I can’t think multiple steps ahead in...

female, yep, yes they are.

I always wonder what people think that I am doing when I am not contributing to a conversation. I am not ignoring them, or daydreaming; I am listening to what they are saying and soaking it all up. I don't like to be the one who is the...

My daughter convinced me, shortly after I left her Dad, to go have coffee with her at Starbuck's one morning. I was particularly stressed, crying, agitated, etc. I couldn't imagine just going and getting coffee and just sitting. I was...

I read people so well! The trick is - NEVER let THEM know what YOU know! Most people are so obvious and they think they're fooling me or something but I'm simply "playing the role." I don't mind letting you think you have me alllll...

It's funny now that I look back a bit on my life. The fact that I almost went insane and got locked up in a mental institution due to the simple fact that I just see things more than most people do. I look deeply, feel deeply...

When I look around I can only see the details the failure,the grief,the hurt I see no good in you I look at your eyes and open your soul you were meant to be different and not the same you were meant to be broken not fixed you should...

The strongest ppl are not those who show strength in front of us but those who win battles we know nothing about........

**Requested by Affinity. :)I am extremely observant. Sometimes i am hyper qued to my surroundings and i am wrong in my calculations but for the most part i am very aware of what is going on, i just dont let anyone know.I gather facts...
