Fake people and Fake hippies

I don't call myself a hippie but I am attracted to the "hippie" peace and love mentality. You should love and accept these people because to me anyways, thats what being a "hippie" is about, well partly right? They are young and so are you and Im not saying you don't know who you are but most people that age and also my age don't know who they are yet. Just give them time to grow and try not to get annoyed because they are not like you. Try to accept them for them and understand that they are experimenting with life until they realize who they are. When you start thinking of people as cool or uncool, you'll probably miss out on really good friendships.

 

Sometimes people who look like "hippies" are the craziest people..

It got to be a trend here, and some of the people who are all hippied out you just cant trust.

It turns me off from the whole thing, profoundly life is so much more.

 

Yeah, that always works! It freaks them out...but I guess whenever I'm really depressed I start to think about how much hugging could help the me and before I know it I'm hugging (and scaring) people.

Anyway, I used ot hide who I was and just express it when I was out of school, y'know and then one day I just got so sick of pretending to be someone I wasn't. I wore my peace necklace to school and kids started asking me "Are you a f****ng hippy or something?" and I just said "No, I'm just a hippy. Thanks for asking." They gave me hell after that but I was so goddamn sick of it all!
Anyway, that's what I meant.

Peace and love wished your way brothers and sisters.

Understood.

 

you would not BELIEVE all the fake hippies in my school! i see all those God-awful magazines that say the summer of love style is "in" now.
man, thats sad.
cause then people look at me and think im one of "them"?!

 

"in"?


Since when did freaking people out become in, man?!

 

To answer your question, I don't ever really notice if people are "cool" or not. As long as I enjoy their company, and they enjoy mine, there is not a problem. I know many people who aren't themselves, but it doesn't particularly phase me. As someone else has said, adolescence is a time of confusion and search for one's self. They are probably searching for who they truly are and their place in life. Also, not to nit-pick, but would you mind using a term other than "gay?" It is just that I hear and see it so much from my generation, and it gets very old very fast; not to mention, it is offensive to some people. Anyway, if you don't relate to the people you are spending time with, I suggest looking for new friends. It sometimes takes a while to find people who are on the same page as you, so to speak.

 

a true hippy holds the gypsy lifestyle

 

can you be a hippy and a christian

 

I don't think that I'm a real "hippie". I don't wear Tie-Dye that much. I'm not that peaceful. I eat fast food once in awhile. I'm not skinny, but I'm not obese either. I own an iPod, and have a bank account.

Although, my hair length and my music tastes are definitely considered "hippie".

 

I think you can be whatever you want to be, as you long as you don't harm anybody or anything.

 

Let's just say there's a hippie in all of us so we don't get worked over dumb shit.

 

i never really coped much flak from people at school for being a hippie.. i never labelled myself as that because i just see me as me, but thats how everyone else saw me... a friend even nicknamed me hippie n refused to call me by my real name... they all seemed to love the fact that i was doing what i want and being who i wanted to be... we had to wear a uniform, but i protested that as much as possible with bright headscarves, n the wrong shoes n heaps of jewellery, but even on the occasional free dress day i had people asking me where id got my bright pink fisherman pants, or the shirt i was wearin or whatever...

 

What's the point of turning ourselves into labels? Just accept everyone as is and learn that labels are bullshit.

Peace and love

 

I don't think there is fake hippies

 

I used to live with fake hippies and now I live with a real hippie. It is much better now.

 

One of my friends said they could get me some green off a mate, who happened to be visiting and staying for a few days. So the mate gave this guy my number, and we were texting. He seemed really....well, like a hippy!! The things he said he did, the way he spoke, the way he said he dressed. I was rather impressed-was i about to finally meet a real hippy guy???!

So this weekend, him and some of his friends came over and camped for a few days, and me and the friend who had "introduced us" (in a way) went and camped with them for the duration.

Was very disappointed. He didn't dress the way he'd been bragging, didn't talk the way he had by phone, and just was very much not the hippy he made out to be.

A lot of people try to be something they're not. I think as long as you are true to yourself you will soon attract like minded people!!!

 

well I feel the way you use the word"gay" to describe some people, shows that you are not very acepting yourself, and you are hating on all these people for doing there own thing. you are sterotyping everyone based on a word "hippy" means alot more then long hair and clothes, i know a ton of people who totally are hippy's in their way of thinking, but NEVER dress hippy and would never even call them selves hippy's. So I belive you just got to love everyone, and everyone is on there own trip, and you just got to let them do their thing, as you do yours, and you will find groovy people every where you go.

shalom.

 

yes u can, the things jesus taught r very close to the peace nad love aspect of hippies, but not the exact same.im a christian hippy,
no group of people whether or not they call themselves hippes r just alike, i agree most hippies just call themselves that for an excuse to be a drug addict or a whore or not have a job.
i dont do drugs,sleep around and i work, and im chritian, but im still what people would call a hippy,
anyone who calls themselves hippy u know aint, the media called us hippies.

 

IMO, there is no such thing as a fake hippie. that makes no sence.
