What people think/see: people who wear a lot of black and have a lot of eyeliner, pretty quiet and a tad scary, probably super depressed and freaky they listen to music about death and want the world to end.
What people don’t see/real definition: people who are most comfortable in darker, less revealing clothes, people who like song that have meaningful/emotional lyrics but also have good music. People who are shunned a lot because they look different even though they aren’t generally that mean/dark.
Sometimes emos are depressed and sometimes they aren’t. (Just like every other categorization of human being.) emos are more in touch with their emotional side and tend to understand deeper more abstract philosophical ideas, not because they’re morbid, but because they’re intelligent and they understand things other people can’t. They often are misunderstood and choose to express themselves with poetry/music.

“That guy but be goth and like depressed or something he’s wearing all black and being super creepy isn’t he corner.”
“Nah he’s emo. Let’s go talk to him I bet he’s just a little shy and awkward. He’s probably an interesting person.”

Get the Emo mug.Most of the people who call themselves “emo” and attention seek are fakes. A real emo is someone who is very sensitive and overreacts to things.
Emos also either heavily express themselves through music, art, writing and many more things OR like me they hide their emotions and feelings because people judge them and they are shy.

Get the Emo mug.Emo is an abbreviation for 'emotive hardcore punk', or 'emocore', a genre of music and a lifestyle which peaked in the 1990s. Often used nowadays as a classification for people - typically teens - who listen to rock music, are introverted and wear black and maybe have coloured streaks in their hair. Occasionally used as an insult, though emos do not take this as an insult normally.
