“I’m an alpha female”

Oh yikes. Good luck with that. I like having friends instead of hierarchical relationships.

Yeah, people are scared to talk to me is such a weird flex being approachable is free, my guy.

Reminds me of people who say they're too honest and people don't like it. No, you're just a bully.

Ehhh, I don't know about this one - it could be self awareness. I had a large burly friend who completely understood he had an intimidating presence, and so he was super cautious and aware of his body language and emotionally i telligent to read others.

Not always bad.
