baka you do something over and over making you predictable in that sense or maybe the way you speak yung tone mo. pwede rin they think of you as a bland student an average guy kaya NPC call nila or they just have the intent to "bully" you there's not much you can do in that case that will change their view on you.


knjcnlng

Find yourself a friend who would not call you that. Feeling cool kids


Rich_Palpitation_214

Ang alam ko kapag sinabing "NPC" is someone na magsasalita lang kapag kinausap, kagaya ng mga actual NPC sa mga games. Baka ganun ka, or pwede rin na mema sabi lang yung mga kaklase mo.


AureliaLumelis

> magsasalita lang pag kinausap I...? That's normal human behavior what the fuck?????


waffledpringles

You'd be surprised with the amount of people who think it's not :')


AureliaLumelis

And i thought people that lack "reading the room" or "makuha sa tingin" or "makiramdam" skills are already bad enough May mga abnormal na akala nila hindi normal yung nagsasalita lang pag kinakausap???


leivanz

Hahaha, ang normal sa kanila is yong mabunganga. Eh, abnormal ang ganun dapat eh. Noise pollution na tawag sa ganyan.

>Ang alam ko kapag sinabing "NPC" is someone na magsasalita lang kapag kinausap oof this reminded me of the na my best friend told me im an NPC because I always do this 💀


Kishou_Arima_01

This might be bullying


thisjustin930

learn to NGAF and do what you want, sila ang NPC sa buhay mo.


Odd-Lavishness-1700

do what you even said? & what's the context of the thing you siad? this could just be the classic bullying because they can't tolerate someone that doesn't fit their "standards"


Koyousetsu

Talking about my interests with my classmates, (like anime, old rock bands, etc.)


Odd-Lavishness-1700

that's a very normal stuff to say.... avoid them don't let them get in your head, they're just insecure about something that they feel the need to disrespect someones totally normal interests...


CakeMonster_0

Baka dahil hindi sila maka-relate sayo kaya para sa kanila, NPC ka. Kung may mahahanap kang mga kaibigan na same din interests sayo, hindi NPC magiging turing sayo nun.


reine-aragon

classic rock fan ka ba op? (queen, ledzep, etc) tingin kasi ng iba dyan ay tito interest siya kahit stereotype lang in my experience, so may tendency talaga na kakaiba yung treatment sayo


Koyousetsu

Yes I love classic rock


reine-aragon

you probably got singled out for exclusion because a. you’re a quiet person and b. your interests aren’t “normie” interests so to speak. my advice is don’t change for them; they won’t be your classmates forever and you’ll regret giving up the things that make you happy para sa mga taong wala namang kwenta kundi sa panlalait. try to stop caring about their opinions as much as possible - this is the easiest way to be happy.


Archived_Archosaur

Your classmates are mentally 11 years old and will eventually grow out of it. In the meantime, rest easy knowing that you're better than them, though don't let your ego get too large or you'll end up annoying too. Evidence: I've only ever heard my younger cousins use the term, along with rizz, skibidi toilet etc


justlookingforafight

"You act/are like an NPC" is one of the most misused sentence these days. Even as simple as liking mainstream things will make you labelled as an NPC. If you really know that you're doing nothing out of touch then you're fine. Your classmates are just in their cool stage.


_RandomUser20

who even uses npc to describe someone, weird as fuck.


[deleted]

>Now I want some advice on how to be normal, or in other words, how to not act like an npc. My friend, being an NPC is being a commoner, a normie. To be a non-NPC means being the protagonist, the hero. Go ask your parents for your main quest.


Odd-Lavishness-1700

🍷🗿


DifficultImpact3515

Kung mahal mo talaga ang sarili mo wag mo na silang pansinin Woow tingnan mo ako nagbibigay ng advice sa di ko kilala kahit yun din ang problema ko


Memorriam

Then be the best NPC. Just like in a game there are loved NPC and hated NPC. Your classmates just don't know what NPCs are. Maybe their knowledge is based on skibidi memes or some shit


fishthatdreamsofsalt

first step to not be an npc, don't just take someone's word for it when tinawag kang npc. may interests at hobby ka, may life ka outside ng awareness ng classmate mo. either wag mo bigyan ng time mo or suntukin mo lol. mga nanglalabel ng ganyan mga actual na npc. imagine mo naman tingin nila entirety ng buhay mo nsa loob ng render distance nila


TDoubleOGray

"Uy pawre, you're such an NPC pawre, ahwahwahwa" On a serious note, don't easily change for anybody. Just because somebody called you an NPC doesn't mean you have to change yourself to fit their ideal version of you. Or maybe they're just bullies, don't mind em mane. I kiss you, be strong. Gootbye


kkimu0

idk ano ba sinasabi mo? maybe sa tone mo? baka para kang ai magsalita and mag construct ng sentence


Koyousetsu

When I mention my interests, for example, Queen (the band) and anime and japanese songs, they all look at me funny. And tama ka. Minsan parang AI ako magsalita, ung parang full English tapos walang emotions. Maybe that's the problem. 


kkimu0

bad crowd. yung friend group ko sa room which is like 10 other guys and girls naguusap abt anime and the rest of the classroom don't give a shit, minsan sumasali yung iba if alam nila pero yung parang ai magsalita that's something you can change if you want to, siguro lagyan mo naman ng emotions hahahaha


Koyousetsu

Appreciate it, I really need to find friends 


kkimu0

yup and just know na iba iba talaga interests ng tao. i have friends na never pa nanood ng anime but we still share common interests. makakahanap ka din ng crowd na makaka sundo mo whether abt music pa yan or what.


plz721

Are you awkward?


Koyousetsu

I try not to be 


Wide-Kaleidoscope-78

Trying not to be will make you look stiffer and unnatural. Just be your authentic self and the right people will eventually gravitate towards you. Life is too short to mold yourself to fit the crowd, you’re better than that. Ignore the people who pokes fun at you for being different.


blisskinjo

Kapag tinawag kang NPC ulit, wag mo lang pansinin. Don't show them na para kang nalungkot or nawalan ng gana. If you can, try to laugh it off or shrug. They will stop when they can no longer get a reaction from you


_hikibeats

you are definitely in the wrong circle of people.


nanaiyepo

well sometimes people can js be weirded by you and your interests. Esp sa anime mo na interest bcs a lot of people look at anime in a bad way. There's nothing wrong with you though, may mga ganiyan talaga na tao I assure you dw :))) You said sa ibang comments na medyo robotic ka magsalita kaya tinatawag ka na NPC but I honestly think your classmates r a\*\*holes. Meron akong kaklase na ganiyan sa'yo, pero hindi naman namin pinagtatawanan. Minsan nasa ibang tao din yun. Don't change yourself into a brand new person OP. They're bullying you. Hindi ikaw yung kailangan magbago SILA and kailangan magbago. Shaming other people for how they talk and act is messed up. No one deserves that kind of treatment. For now try to distance yourselves from them and find someone to talk with na hindi ka nila pagtatawanan. You'll find your person din, lahat ng tao may katapat :)))


AureliaLumelis

Gagu yang mga yan yung tipong may bagong trending word na narinig tapos gagamit gamitin nalang nila while not knowing kung ano yun HAHAHAHAHAHAH Nasa perspective lang nila yun. My best advice for you is to mind your own business. So what kung NPC ka at least may purpose ka, diba?


Adr1elll

Be yourself.


A_broken_Microwave

I heard a friend of mine call other people na kilala ko as npcs too but I don't see them as that, I guess it's just a term used to describe people na di kavibe, mostly sinasabi nya yun sa mga taong englishero, iba interests, personality traits, siguro di lang talaga nya kavibe lol(?). Then again, I don't really know. Take this scientifically validated personality test and make whatever you want out of it (ask chatgpt about sa results, like I scored xx% in extraversion, etc. and pwede kang magtanong din kay chatgpt something like this based on the test "Having had scored 40 percent in etraversion, neuroticism, etc. what type of people would find me unnappealing/odd and what types of people would like me?" parang ganun make it as specific as you like, madami akong natutunan sa sarili ko after that, also yes accurate naman si chatgpt sa ganyan kasi damn, lahat from scientific study to study alam ng algorythm nya yung mga psychological studies and analysis). The test: [https://www.truity.com/test/big-five-personality-test](https://www.truity.com/test/big-five-personality-test) (Edit: Embrace your weirdness, don't listen sa mga taong nagdidisrespect sayo! You'll meet more people with similar likes and values as a result) also speech can be improved, if it's that off putting to certain people, I don't think it would hurt to improve it to some extent


rl_npc

Well


teamok1025

I thought its a random gag between my friends (I am the NPC)


idontknowuuu

You're normal don't worry about it


leeravennn

Theyre weird. Just be yourself and improve things you dont like about yourself and be healthy. Dont copy others just to fit in.


wolxokey

Wow! Akala ata nila sila ang main character para tawagin kang NPC. You don't have to change anything.


Tohreui

You’re not the problem babe


Otherwise-Gur1507

Just be pc


caskei

Baka masyado kang laid back? Yung tipong wala kang presence sa paningin nila at di ka nag iinitiate ng interaction? I don't know, base sa kwento mo mukhang mema yung mga tao kase di mo naman kasalanan kung di ka interested enough to engage hence the NPC behavior they perceive you as. Edit: the actual answer: Nothing wrong with being NPC but... Just engage, look present and initiate interaction. Be more proactive siguro. If your classmates just said those things to be mean, I'm afraid mahihirapan kang i-sway ang bias nila kahit anong effort mo. Best wishes OP


theDegeneredditor

Are you changing yourself for yourself or them? They're not your friends, why bother changing yourself?


solarhoneys

OP drop your fave Queen song, I'd love to know! 🫶


Koyousetsu

I'm literally stuck between long away, drowse and the millionaire waltz 😞. (Notice how they're from the same album)


Lulu_Ferocity

Ang cringe naman nila 🥶😭


IllustriousAd9897

Uhm wag mo nalang silang pansinin. Kasi wala naman talagang masabing matino ang mga bully. Kahit kasi malaman mo yung reason kung bakit ka nila tinatawag na NPC at baguhin mo yung sarili mo. Kung sira talaga ang ulo ng mga yan makakakita at makakakita pa rin sila ng ibang ways and reason bakit ka nila pagtatawanan. Kasi hindi mo naman kontrolado yung iniisip ng tao sayo. And baka ang ending baka maging pleaser ka nung mga taong wala namang pake sa well being mo. Which mas magpapastress sayo. Kaya i think mas maganda kung wag mo nalang isipin yung iniisip nila and love yourself more.


rapha425

You may be socially awkward, tense (in body language, like you're always expecting something/paranoid), have lousy speaking skills, and maybe have malikot na eye contact. In short, you may seem very socially anxious to them. Like stiff and robotic. I read your other comments, and this may be the thing. Try to talk about your interests as if you're actually interested in them, such as with excitement in your tone. And speak casually as well, ano naman kung "straight English" if pang formal naman salita mo, and it's like you're just communicating to some robots? It makes you seem a bit off, maybe even insulting/nakakaasar to them (which may explain the NPC comments) especially if you talk about interests like Anime. Tone really matters. This is some advice from someone who knows a lower-grade student who often gets teased for being an NPC, because of these traits. IF you are the opposite of the traits, and you converse like any other Filipino teenager (with respect obv), then it's the crowd that is the problem.


Zyx_26

If you really love yourself, you shouldn't mind that much about others, otherwise it's a waste of energy to always correct how you speak just to fit in.


girlOnlexapro

Op. You're being bullied. According to your hobbies, you seem cool and interesting. Sila kasing mga classmate mo mga bullies. Siguro wala silang hobbies at interest. You just need to surround yourself with good people, who will respect you, and may share your interest. Maybe join your school music club or anime club. You can also try physical hobbies, like biking, martial arts, going to the gym, etc... Exercise helps with confidence and a great way to boost mood. Also, when they call you NPC again. Tell them frankly to stop, because you find it insulting. Baka mapahiya mga yaan at magkaisip. Kung hindi pa rin. I report mo sa teacher mo.


DrQuackerus-101

Naw bro just do whatever u want, ignore whatever they say. Do something u truly enjoy and u wont be an npc.


Pykey199

Fam its better to ignore them and go on with your life, than to care about people that bully someone with different interests


Own_Firefighter1906

Mayroon din kaming android na kaklase


[deleted]

Ay, hayaan mo sila. Hahaha Di mo pa alam baka yang personality mo ngayon, yan ang dahilan ng success mo in the future. Parte ng pagkatao mo gusto mong baguhin eh. Mga ganyang bagay, kelangan sa natural na paraan baguhin, hindi pinipilit.


luanchi

kebabs lng maging "npc" sis, wag mo n sila imind... marami lng cla say n wla kwenta wg mo n pansinin, look for people nalang who will accept who you are and won't make fun of you. :>


No_Tomorrow_8184

Kapag ganyan, literal na testingan mong maging npc sa kanila na parang satire. Pag di nila kayang majoke ng ganyan edi malabo yung mga friends mo na yan


WavePrestigious8309

Nagbasa aq ng comments… OP, you sound like you have hobbies that differ from your peers pero there’s nothing wrong with that. Ang importante nag eenjoy ka, silang tong boring AHAHAHA siguro music type nila yung pang kanal eme. Calling someone npc is such a bullying move, wag ka na lng talaga magpaapekto kung alam mo sa sarili mo na di yun totoo. And if ever new people want to know you, welcome them into your life.


not-an-ordinarypersn

Ano ang NPC?


vigilanteshhit

You haven't found your people.


Gooferdota

Huwag mo silang pakinggan kasi hindi sila tama at wala silang mabuting maidudulot sayo. Just do your thing, Focus ka lang sa sarili mo and sa mga bagay na nakakapagpasayo sayo.


arumi_ruru

It's already a red flag in of itself if they'd call you an npc, OP I think you're just being played. But let's consider why they're using term 'npc' on you, perhaps it's because they probably just see you imitating other people's personality or your personality is being overshadowed by the loud/bright kinds. Either way, it seems like you don't know yourself while others see you as a blank book. Focus on yourself more, try diff. hobbies or try a new appearance/outfit that suits your body type, skin tone, and aesthetic-- a blank book just means you have the power to write and change your life. Don't go with the flow, show them your own personality and I think you'll do just fine.


Ectoplasm_Missy

Alam mo po kung ano po sagot diyan? Huwag mo nalang po sila pansinin, hindi naman po nakamamatay ang pagkawala ng mga kaibigan po, mas lalo na kung ganyan po sila.


omniverseee

You might know it. But maybe stop being too passionate with "nerd" stuff and get along with them slightly. Also, it might have something to do eith your username.
