What I know of some of these music artists weren't as well known when they first started..
Kongos- I still don't think many people have heard of them but I know their music has been featured for a couple of minutes in movies between scenes.

---

MT- I'm not even sure how popular they are but they've got a few good songs that I like and I have no idea how I stumbled across them?!

---

Pentatonix- They certainly started off with just being a YouTube group and they started to build a fan base there and have gotten more successful now- they've featured on MTV's Music Awards, Pitch Perfect 2 and they've been doing a lot of tours so I think they're doing a whole lot better than when they started out!

---

I don't think Imagine Dragons were too well known but League of Legends certainly gave them a good reputation when their song was featured in their advertisement and they performed at the live shows for the games. I'm sure they've probably played at T in the Park or an event similar to that but they definitely have had a boost from League of Legends, especially in other countries. I stumbled across them trying to find a different song and I quite liked their songs so when I started to listen to them more I noticed they were becoming more acknowledged! ?

I think it can be true and false to be fair because sometimes certain words, features, and attitudes do, either create a sense of personality or hint at a little bit of who you are, especially the way you can come across to others. If you didn't have an opinion some might say that lacks personality because personality can be anything about you which makes you individual and unique. This can be anything from your actions, words, opinions, beliefs, expression, interests and its partly what makes you who you are.
I also think sometimes it can be the way people interpret and read things, their brain struggles to process what this could mean and how it's meant to come across which leads to a lot of assumptions which might not actually be true but come across in that way. It's sometimes hard to pick up on what others say by their choice of words, it could easily come across in a different tone or attitude which was not actually intended to come across that way but it could be that the meaning behind the words or the meaning of the words specifically to you isn't positive and is seen in a different perspective which you associate with a negative or positive perspective that creates your judgement. I mean I sometimes struggle to read people in that respect, especially if its something said that's written, it's a lot easier to pick up on tone, mood and attitude in a face to face conversation but its more difficult when something is written! ☺?

It might be the person you're attracted to and like that's the problem. Two years is my longest relationship, I'm hopeful that it'll last a whole lot longer, so it depend really on how long you see a long relationship being! The best thing you can do is be yourself and if that's a problem with others then maybe that person isn't for you, but someone else will like you for who you are. Yeah be yourself don't try to deny or cover up who you are to suit someone else's desire, get to know this person- what they do and don't like, what their interests and hobbies are, make them feel welcome so that they feel relaxed with you and can approach you about feelings etc. There's a lot you could mention but the top ones for me would be:
- Be honest, no one likes being hurt from lies!
- Be yourself and not someone or something else!
- Be respectful.
- Be loyal, especially when you're ready to commit to someone.
- Get to know that person as best as you can- there's lots to learn and share
- Relax and enjoy that persons company!
- Trust each other.
- Do things you both enjoy, don't have a one side relationship make it equal!

Yes there can but sometimes there can be complications with that, sometimes you get attached to them or they can get attached to you and then it's difficult to try to stay friends (if that's what is wanted) especially knowing there's feelings there. I have guy friends I find it a bit easier to talk to them about something's, not everything but some because sometimes what you need is brutal honesty(some boys don't always care and will just come with it whether its nice or thought through) and not a two faced bitchy friend like another girl! Some guys are nice enough to talk and put in effort unlike other guys or girls (in my experience). I'm not a fan of people who pick and choose their friends like that person is nothing but an object waiting to be given a nice home, no people have feelings and its horrible to exclude and treat people like that because if the roles were reversed they wouldn't like it so why should anyone else put up with it?! I think being friends with a guy can be pretty different from being friends with a girl and I've never thought about it until now... Girls are pretty needy one way or another in a friendship they've always got to have someone there, sometimes it's almost like a ranking contest where they'll befriend someone who is potentially a higher rank or more popular and befriend a lower ranking person who probably isn't that popular and it makes them seem like a higher rank because of the unpopular person. Also in a situation like this some might suggest that the unpopular girl is like a "duff" (horrible horrible term and people that actually do slate people like this I can't stand, I don't want to know!), basically a friend who is there to make others look pretty, popular, amazing, hot and everyone's wish to look like, be or get with and it's disgusting when people stoop so low to do this! Girls put pressure on other girls, it's like a competition of who's better or looks most appealing and basically some girls can plummet your confidence right through the ground so that you feel worthless! Whereas some guys talk, joke around and treat you like one of their friends rather than a play thing which is just used and nothing more! Even still, guys and girls I don't think as a whole will treat others equally or will remain friends with other because there's a lot to consider; intentions, how do they make me look, feelings, trust, will I or will they use me, the idea of an actual, genuine friendship, how to treat them, respect and so on, so I wouldn't say this question is as simple to answer as some night think there's a lot of thinking, processing, dependence and intentions to think about when having friendships. I don't see it as answering yes or no because I think differently I think things need to be considered like any situation because truly everyone is a stranger to everyone and you think about a lot when deciding whether you'd like to be around that stranger to get to know them or leave them be. :)

Excluding you're very well thought questions and some of the other pretty good questions I get from followers or random anons, I usually get stupid comments and opinions on (what I find to be) inappropriate subjects, trying to dig up overly personal and invasive details and those like for so many likes, rates. One of the really bizarre sides to questions I get is quite a lot of them are concerning torture and my opinions on certain methods, such as 'spanking kids', 'punishing young kids', 'taking glasses off of someone as a punishment', 'fingernail and toenail torture',' cutting up body parts'.... Blah blah blah it's tiring when I've said what I won't answer and people then ask to be wide and act as though they're smart but their question ends up deleted! Sometimes I question what really goes through people's minds when asking this sort of thing or commenting but not asking a question that I can answer! There are definitely some very questionable people out there if that's the sort of thing they're interested in... ?

I could probably make a list..

---

- I don't like when and generally people who deliberately waste my time and efforts I've spent on them, I feel like I could've put that time and effort to use elsewhere where it'd be appreciated!

---

- I don't like when people have expectations or high standards for me because I feel crap knowing I can't or won't be able to meet them!

---

- I don't like these younger generations has anyone else noticed how bratty, spoiled, aggressive and ungratefully cheeky these kids have gotten! -I also don't like the way some parents deal with their children, if they're going to be intentionally rude, misbehaving all of the time and a nightmare to put up with or take anywhere you should look at how to discipline them properly so they learn right from wrong and how to conduct themselves around certain people!

---

-My two youngest cousins (on my dads side), again this ties in with how they're disciplined which I find incredibly embarrassing and inefficient because my cousins are terrors! They're 5 and 6 and the two of them bite, kick, grab, pull, force, throw and punch others- family members, when they were at nursery and now at school they don't seem to grasp how to behave and I HATE the way they're "disciplined" because I wouldn't call it that at all especially when they're addressed with 'honey', 'sweetie' and 'darling' it annoys the life out of me because my aunt and her husband have to try and justify their behaviour by trying to state how well they get on at home yet they're utter monsters to be around or take anywhere!

---

- I don't like the fact that I don't completely know or understand what it is I'm set out to do in life or which path I'd like to take, I've never been sure but I felt a bit better today knowing that my younger cousins are the same so it must run through my dads side of the family!

---

-I don't like when I try to do the right thing and end up either a) messing up the situation myself b) being thrown under the bus by someone else or c) when I get blames for utter nonsense and put in situations which are highly uncomfortable!

People: Well it's hard to say, sometimes you think a place can be defined by what sort of people live there but where I stay anything kind of goes. There's really friendly, generous, kind hearted, welcoming and helpful people, then there's the snobby crowd who can be rude, self centred, idiotic and ignorant, and then there's the typical rowdy thugs kicking about looking to cause trouble.

---

Food: As far as stereotypes go I don't eat haggis, I've tried it once or twice in my 19 years of existing but I'm not much of a meat eater anymore I'd prefer fish or pasta than meat. I don't like game meats despite my dad having a license to shoot deer, geese, rabbit or pheasants I'm just not a fan I don't like the taste I don't think I ever will! However, I do like the variety of takeaway options and the choice of different cultural foods! It's a shame the town I live in has been named the worst fast food area in comparison to other towns which doesn't give a very good impression but to be honest my town is becoming more ghost like and I guess the restaurants and fast food places are keeping people here and are producing money so I guess it's both good and bad! :/

---

Climate: Oh my goodness right now it's freezing cold, it's rarely ever warm here and if it does get hot then we get the heat for a day or if we're lucky a few days! It mostly is rainy, cloudy and cold here but in saying that we don't have too many weather issues- nothing as extreme as a tornado or earthquake but there unfortunately is a lot of flooding and high winds that's probably the worst it gets! ??
