A girl I like but I've decided not to since I don't want to affiliate myself with the disgusting social system my ethnicity has plus I'm completely submerged in the hole known as the 'friend zone.'

I'm always trying to impress a certain person in the My Little Pony:Friendship Is Magic groupwith me, I really have no idea why tbh, I just sorta, want him to think good of me...
And of course if I ever get a crush on someone I try to impress them, that's just...nat..ur...al...

Everyone. I sound pathetic, but subconsciously, I try to impress everyone. I'm so afraid of disapproval that I actually shroud myself in self-imposed disapproval so everyone's expectations are lowered to a point that there's only one place to go. Up.
It's pretty sad introspectively, but oh well. What am I supposed to do about it?

A girl I like. I have been doing this for a LONG time.

So far I have in the last couple years, learned guitar (to a mastery level), started a band (and invited her to our shows), written music for jazz band (largely centered around trumpet because that's what she plays), joined Drama and become a decent actor (because she was in it), as well as a host of other trivial things.

So far none of them have worked. She is impressed, but not impressed enough clearly.

I still don't regret doing these things though, as I am a pretty epic guitarist and that's bound to help me get other girls when I get over this one and go to university. :p

I am desperately trying to work towards impressing the students of the university I will be going to. If I don't impress them, I'm in for three years of hell. Thing is, I can't just impress them by being a nice person, oh no, that'd be rational. I need to go by their standards, the standards of this messed up society, which means I must look perfect drink alot and be a bit of a dick.

Yay human progress!

My advisor? My ballet teacher? Both? =)

Mostly myself, actually...I am very much my own severest critic.

A girl and a guy friend, for different reasons.

I wanna bone the girl and I want to get the guy's respect.

I'm sorry to tell all of you this, but in my view all of your avatars are of Justin Beiber.....

Anyway if I was impressing someone I guess it would have to be random internet people like you, otherwise I don't think I'd be on these forums.

No really, who?

Everyone wants someone to think they're special, interesting or cool. So who are you trying to impress, a girl? Your parents? Your boss?
Its genetic to impress people, our drive to impress gains popularity... you see where I'm going with this right? We are social beings, impressing gains status and power and other things we crave. Why does a single celled organism do meoisis? Why do plant life do Osmosis?

I guess mainly this girl I like who seems to want me in the friend zone.

Other than her, I guess everyone. I'm one of the antisocial teenagers in my school but I can have a good conversation on movies/music/games/life in general.

I live by the theory of "Everyone tries to impress people so if I don't go out of my way to impress people I'll impress them because I'm different from the rest of the people.

I admit to being a showoff now and then. I probably try to impress girls I like too much. However I am a strong believer in putting "my money where my mouth is" so to speak. It's nice to get noticed and talk about something but it's nicer to be acknowledged for actually taking the initiative and doing something.

My coworkers, particularly, um, the women. I'm still trying to learn the difference between "ingratiating" and "grating".

As of right now, I'm only trying to impress a girl. And NOT for the reason you would assume.

Myself, mostly. I've given up on my family thinking I'm going to accomplish anything with my life, because the only "me" they see is me when I'm at home with nothing to do.

If I can impress myself, then I'll know that I've arrived.

I also try to impress chicks whenever possible. But that's to be expected, really.
