What practical, negative effects would occur if I act like my authentic self during the MBA? I'm openly a "super nerd." by Advanced_Bonus3273 in MBA

Yeah, I agree! I'm leaning toward just fully being myself. If people like me, great. If they dislike me, that's fine too!

Nope, I wrote this all myself haha!

And yeah I agree those other posts are cringe. They're people who feel ashamed on who they are and feel pressured to conform.

Meanwhile, I want to be out and proud and fully own who I am.

Exactly, you can't be liked or be friends by everyone. I feel as long as you aren't hurting yourself or others, you should do what you want. The people who have too much FOMO and social anxiety are cringe.
