Edit 2: Poster version here [link]Edit: Holy cheese, guys! I log on this morning to find 107 feedback messages, most of them for this stamp alone!
For a stamp! Sorry if I don't reply to your comments, but I have read them.Way to kill me people.
To explain this, I have a story. Make yourselves comfortable.
Many moons ago--actually, two years ago--myself and some collage friends were discussing a girl who had recently left. We had known her since our third year in primary when she had joined us, and, in all honesty, none of us really liked her. Particulary me. I hated her guts more than anything I had ever hated before. Yet, because I was polite to her, as I was to everybody, one of my friends assumed I liked her and said I was being two-faced. I turned around and said, "Would you rather I was mean to her? Apart from the fact you would nag me for doing so, I have been brought up to be polite to everybody, no matter how much I wish to rip them apart."
She was silenced after that remark.
You see, boys and girls, just because I am polite to you, it most definatly does not mean I like you.

I get people thinking we are friends so much because I try to be respectful To people. I'm flattered but it gets kind of irritating that when i'm not spamming them with messages like they do to me they get mad and think I hate them DX

The worst part about being Japanese is that I always get those "I thought Japanese people were polite" (I legit got that comment once)

Oh I've had too many incidents like that. I've learned to be as polite as I can be (even if I want to tear some people apart) but I'm no longer a pushover about it.

I can have a polite argument with anyone in a political debate, but that doesn't mean I'll always like them.

Bring polite never makes you two faced it makes you competent and mature, you know how to pick your battles

I can't tell you how many times people I hate get the wrong idea whenever I'm polite to them and start hanging out with me like
we're "friends". It gets on my nerves so badly

This kinda smells of passive aggression, but maybe that's just cause I'm a very outspoken person.

I'm always polite

It also means you could secretly insult the person and they wouldnt notice

I find it amusing when people take my politeness at work as a sign for friendship. I truly give no fucks about them. Lol. I'm just being polite.

What do you mean? I'm not polite because I don't accept politeness as friendship?

Nah, you're acting all stupid and bad talky. That's not polite :/

You sound like you were bothered by my tone of my comment.
To which I say, no, I was expressing my thoughts which aren't always sugary rainbows.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You responded first. So I don't see why you got upset.

Yes I can attest to this. There was a guy I was polite with but no friendship was forthcoming.

and that goes for "like" in any sense of the word, children at my school
no, but seriously i want to tear apart soooooo many of them
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Besides, with what I believe in, it's kind of something that you're supposed to do, so yeah xD People ever stop to think of that?
I just find it much more satisfying to be nice to everyone instead of spewing hate, because it makes life much more peaceful and enjoyable. Although if I don't like someone I try to avoid them at all costs, but if they say "Hi" I'm going to be nice and give them one back.

Finally someone who understands!
When I talk about someone, about how I annoyed I get by that person.
SOMEONE has to complain to me about the fact I have 2 faces because I usually just talk normal with the person :S
So annoying >.<

Gah, so true. I was raised to always be polite to people regardless of situation just because you were supposed to be, but for some reason this means everybody thinks I'm a pushover or that I want to love everybody. I really don't. I'm just employing common courtesy. Apparently that's not heard of anymore.

Too true. Common courtesy is hard to come by nowadays

Oh my gosh yes! I could apply this to so many guys at my school!!
Except, the wording would probably be more, just because I'm polite, doesn't mean I'm flirting with you!!
But yes, couldn't agree more with this!

There's this girl at work who's annoying as hell. I speak to her as little as possible and I avoid eye contact. She probably thinks we're friends.. She went and found me on Facebook and tried to add me. We don't even work with each other directly whatsoever. We just run into each other at break time and such.

Oh I am in the same position as you. There are these guys at my school, who I want to kill everytime they open their mouths. Of course I have to be at least courteous to them, so I don't seem like an A-hole, but because of this, they assume they're my friend, when I can't stand them. I HATE THAT! The only reason I put up with them is because they stick to hanging out with my REAL friends.
Also this applies to everyone who has a job. I hate my customers at my job. XD

Being polite to someone you hate doesn't make you two-faced, it makes you mature.
I know the feeling.

I'm usually only polite to those I don't know very well.
But if I find that they're back-stabbing brats, then I can no longer continue to do this.

I know exactly what you mean, having the same problem with one of my 'friends' at the moment.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Same here. Sometimes I'd like to put a few people in the hospital but because I was raised to have manners (and having my butt whooped when I didn't use them) I've learned restraint. And it sucks if you're in the workforce too, then you have to be or you'll loose your paycheck.

Oh, no kidding! My friends joke that if I'm polite to you, I probably don't like you.
xD That's not true at all, it just means we're not close enough for me to use my true personality. Rude, sarcastic, and short-tempered.
I'm polite with people when I should be, but I'm also the polite and patient girl (that I usually am not) when I'm not in that, "we're friends, I can insult without it meaning anything because we know each other well enough," mood yet I am with close friends. 
Messed up, yes, and I agree with that other person. Be polite while you're acquaintances and be the bitch you are when you've gotten to know each other.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I agree. Although it's funny when you're evetually comfortable around someone to be yourself and your personality changes quite drastically.
