MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT GOTHIC PART I

FIRST MISCONCEPTION - GOTHIC PEOPLE ALWAYS MOODY

~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~

Haha no we are not. ~Always~ is bit over. Everyone sometimes feeling sad. So do Goth. But u all need to understand these, ~the past~, ~the dream~ and ~death~ are strong in Gothic life but we don't simply share it with others. Ok conclusion.. Gothic people is really fun to hang out with.

Gothic people is very very open mind. We won't simply bang you with our ideology.

We keep our sad inside, we don't want to share our sadness with others.

If you hang out with gothic people you will see we always smile and laugh

We love to hide our sad. We only share our sad with the one we love. We only share our sad with the one who will understand us or accept us.

Hehe so i could say this~ if u have friend who love goth, but she or he always smile and never show his/her sadness, well means that she/he didn't accept u~ sorry my opinion only

~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~

SECOND MISCONCEPTION - GOTHIC PEOPLE ANTI SOSIAL

~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~

We might seems like we prefer to stay silent, arrogant or boring, or untouchable because we always with our closest friends, but trust me, chatting with gothic people is fun. We know how to maintain conversation if u give us response. We may lack of skill to tell story, or write article, but we quite good at chatting.

Because of our weakness in telling story, that is why some of us telling their story by songs, dressing, touch, face expressions, dance, or poem.

Friends, lover, and family is important to us. We need friends. We don't want to lose them. That is why we keep our hatred inside (not like Emo~ they prefer to release their emotion)

So if u falling in love with a Gothic girl, give her a chance. Trust me, gothic girl are not that arrogant (i can say that ~If u being arrogant, u are not real goth~ my opinion only)

~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~


THIRD MISCONCEPTION - GOTHIC PEOPLE LOVE DEATH
~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~
We bound strongly with death but we not love death. We don't want our lover to be left alone. We don't want our family is sad. We may dead inside but we won't let our loved one feels that we are dead.

Like i said before. Gothic people keep emotion inside, they do explain what they feel to others by creative ways, their own way, but it could only be understand by other gothic people, but we don't care because we don't want our beloved feeling sad.

But still we want to feel the sense of belonging. Sense of belonging in gothic people is strong, that is why we hope, by our own way of 'release' emotion, we will be found by other gothic people
~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~


FOURTH MISCONCEPTION - GOTHIC IS EMO
~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~
Although Gothic and Emo come from same root, but Gothic is different with Emo.

I'll explain more later, but one think should tell here,

+Gothic+
We love dream, we keep sadness-hatred inside own heart, only our beloved one could read our sadness. So, we only show happiness to other. We quite polite, we are not arrogant. We love fun, we love chatting, we love art, we attract to dark, we love the mystery
we sensitive about thought


||Emo||

Emo love music, emo release emotion not keep, emo is master of emotion, emo is about to apply your emotion to your lifestyle (music, dressing)
emo sensitive about feeling
