I agree with this statement because people can make you think they are nice untill you really get to know them and they are jerks or they could make you think they are really mean at first then they could really be nice

Meagan,
I agree with this statement if someone is a really good actor and can lie without anyone knowing it then yes you can make people believe that your someone your not.

Yes I agree with this statement.
People have multipul personalites
and can easily lead people to believe they are someone they are not.

I agree with this statement becuse you can where better stuff and rent a better car so some people will think you have higher income than you realy have so they think are some on your not

Yes it is because alot of people seem to do that. If you dont know someone and you see them dress a certain way the first time you see them you think thats how they really are or how they dress. They can also lie about many things or make up stories.

Tyler i agree with you you really have to get to know someone before you know who they really are

Yes i absolutley agree. Someone could call you or text you and you could ask who they are and they could say they are who they really arent. you would never know. Or you could be talking to someone you dont know and tell them you are this person but really you arent. I have had this happen to me before. someone would tell me they are one of my frens when i know they really arent because i would be with that person when someone would text me that.

Why would somebody want people to not see the real them?

I agree with this statement because some people make you think they are who you want them to be but yet in reality they are totally diffrent.

Of course it is they deceive you and then later on you understand who they really are. It's as simple as that.

I agree with this statement because you have people blieve that you are a really nice person when in reality you are mean but at that time you just wanted something. Or you could have them blieve that you are a trustworthy person when you could be a snitch, or a theif.

I agree but i also disagree because if you dont now the person than you would beleve that they are who they say they are but then if they were to say that they were president Aborham Lincon then you would think that they were crazy. So I think that you could trick some one but if you come up with a dead mans name than its not going to work.

I agree with this statement,there is a freshmen that is native american, but everybody thinks he is hispanic.They have been calling him "mexican" for years, and if you talk to him today, it almost seems as if he now believes he is in fact mexican

I agree with this statement. You can act different to try to impress people and if they like you that way,and you try to be your real self they may not like the real you. Ive done this to try to make friends but it doesent go to well.

you have to get to know somebody pretty well and even when you think they know them they can pretend to be someone else at nother time

YOU make a good point about multipal personalities

mmatysak said...

So, do people do this to make themselves feel better about themselves or are they just doing it because they think it's what people want to see/hear?

I think sometimes people do put on fake face to try to impress or fit in with a group of people.

(Mrs. Matyzaks question)

Mrs.Matysak they might try to trick people so they can have more friends or they want to hurt that person later on in life or maybe they dont like who they are so they try to be a better person but then they go back to being their self later

Mrs. M, I disagree with you i don't think he is making any good points.

mmatysak said...

Sean, Yes, so when you're two faced, you might let a friend confide in you, but then you turn around and betray that friend. THis is being two faced!!!

Class,
Dakota's point is that people sometimes do whatever they can to convince people. Okay, maybe they don't go into Walmart and buy stuff but maybe they'll steal it instead. The point is that people are not always true to themselves. They put on airs. They are fake.

Melani well someone could act like their normal selves and then act completely different when around different people as if they were a different person. They could treat you like a good friend when you are with that person but if the person goes by other people then be a complete JERK
