Would you consider yourself a 'deep' person?

The term deep is fairly subjective actually, but in general terms, do you think too much? Do you feel too much? Have you been told "to not carry the weight of the world on your shoulders?" Or are you fairly happy-go-lucky, where the world's issues, family/friends' issues, and your own issues don't really bring you down? Or perhaps somewhere in the middle of both?

I'd say I'm very deep, and though I have a sense of humor, I am known for being a bit of a downer and I've been told that I think way too much. I have insomnia because I think too much in fact. :P

(Ironically, I have three options that will each give similar results. :P)

I'm pretty happy-go-lucky naturally. I prefer it that way as well.

I've been told I think too much... and sometimes that turns me into a bit of a whiner. But I try my best to keep my whining amusing for those unlucky enough to hear it.SolidSnake35

I'm a pretty deep individual but Emma Watson is way too hot for me not to vote for that last option.

We make a great match for that reason. You pick me up when I'm down, babe. ;) :P

I tend to over think, observe fine details and philosophize... so I guess I'm kind of "deep"

Why is thinking mutually exclusive with happy?LJS9502_basic

I think I'm somewhat deep. I've been told that I have a gift with words and that I never do anything without first percieving the outcome of an event. Then again, those compliments were from family members of mine, and because they have some bias, who knows if they're right. :lol:

Because humans are thinking beings. Well, at least I am. Perhaps you are all non-thinking automotons, or illusions created by a great deceiver, but it seems reasonable to me that the rest of humanity are thinking beings as well, so to think is to be in touch with our true essence.

I've been told I over think and worry way too much.

I think too much for my own good sometimes. I have a very pessimistic view on the world because of it.

I'm not a deep person. So I guess that means I'm a happy-go-lucky person....without the happy...or lucky. :P

I prefer to think that it is other people who are too simple.Lonelynight

All I can say is this...I try to be "deep" enough to constantly be aware of how shallow I am.

Deep? Shallow? I've known both kinds of people, and loved/respected/admired them greatly. What's a bigger turnoff for me, are people who think that they're hot **** who are doing the world a favor by simply being alive. Basically, fatheaded people who think they're better than everyone else. Those people might ACTUALLY be better than everyone else, or not. That doesn't concern me. What concerns me is that, regardless of whether or not it's true, they're ACTING like it's true. And...that's about the most annoying ****ing thing I've ever had to put up with.

And the wisest thing that Eddie Vedder ever said was this..."if you hate sooooooomething, don't you do it too." Seeing as how I absolutely hate when people act like that, I try not to act like that. I mean, if people who act like that piss me off, then why would I try to be like them?

Bottom line, even the stupidest of us sometimes do smart things and have deep thoughts, and even the deepest and smartest of us sometimes act like the most shallow person on the planet. Do those things apply to me? Absolutely. Sometimes I'm deep, sometimes I'm shallow. That doesn't concern me in the least. However, I am concerned with trying not to get a fat head and then thinking like I'm special and uniquely entitled. I don't care if I'm deep or shallow, I just try not to be a jerk (and even then, I often still fail at such a simple task).

Am I deep or shallow? Don't know, don't care.

I'm too deep for my own good.GazaAli

So from what i researched, being deep considers one to be: Kind of complicated. Kind of reserved. Kind of quiet. Says only the relevant. Doesn't say more than needed. Thinks thoroughly. Considerate. Intelligent. Open minded. I got to say, I'm a pretty deep person but since i find Emma Watson very beautiful ill go for the last option!FoxCapade

Well if that's what it means, then I guess I am a deep person...

I'm very deep... :P

I don't consider myself a particularly deep person, however everybody I knows says that I am the deepest person they know, so perhaps I am.

I'm told by a lot of people that i have a very serious demeaner on my face. I believe i got this from my dad, cause he looks like his about to snap on someone even though he is nowhere near pissed.

As far as 'deepness' go. I guess only in two circumstances, introspection, and intimacy. With regards to intimacy, when i'm with someone i really care about - lets say girlfriend or possible spouse, i tend to get very strong attachments and see thing in the long haul, not in short sexual gratifying burst. I dunno i get a sense of guilt of using someone, and i don't like to think of a lover as a one-shot thing. I am the stereotypical dude the girls say they want, the guy who wants to stay.

introspection more or less something i do, i think about my own faults and what i could do better or be better or be simply at peace with whatever issue i may be thinking.

Well, based off what others have said, I'm an easy going person that thinks a lot about a lot of things.

personally if I really think about it, I come to the conclusion that truly shallow people don't exist. There is always going to be some subject people are really passionate about and at the very least think they know a lot about. (aka deep doesn't necessarily equal intelligence)

When accusations about shallowness arrive ittends to be when there are zero subjects people care about are shared between two individuals. For instance when one person cares massively about fashion and another person couldn't care less, it doesn't mean either person is shallow. It simply means that that particular subject doesn't have meaning to one individual. Sure fashion may now affect the world in an overly significant way, but that doesn't mean there isn't a lot of depth and thought that goes into it.

edit. as far as myself goes I try to stick ot the brighter side of life. That doesn't mean I don't care deeply about things, it just means I'd rather enjoy life than be depressed or serious all the time.

Apparently I'm very analytical and oberserving...

Somewhere in the middle. Im not bothered by issues for some reason, which has led me to be thought of as selfish, i just see myself as logical. Ive never gotten stressed over anything really, so unless acceptance is considered deep, i am not.

I have been told I think too much far too often. It's true though. And Emma Watson really is HAWTT.
