I used to believe "mixed" people meant they would be white with black spots, like a dog. I was very disappointed when I made friends with a new girl at school who told me she was mixed, and she looked just as normal as me.

As a young child (maybe around 8) in the 90's I had a teenage cousin named Tonya with frizzy blonde hair that lived in Oregon. I didn't know much about her other than that. From watching TV, I became convinced that my cousin was actually Tonya Harding, and that my family just never talked about it because they were too ashamed of her.

When I first found this site I honestly wondered who the hell is this Anon person??? Since Anon could be a boy or girl, be aged 12-60, and lived EVERYWHERE, I concluded that Anon was a bot, as in a auto-mated program, then I clicked Anon, incase it took me to a beliefs generator. Then, I saw this belief has been submitted anonymously. So I slapped myself! :P

When I first visited this site I noticed that this person named 'Anon' was always contradicting himself in his many different 'i used to believe' stories. I figured that this paerson must spend the whole day sitting at his computer making up stories for this website!

My twin sister and I are the only children in our family. I used to believe that our birthday was a holiday, like Christmas or Easter because everyone around us seemed to celebrate it. It wasn't until we went to preschool and someone brought in birthday treats on the "wrong" day that I was corrected.

When I was little I thought that whatever was on the birthday card was the gift you were going to get - like if there was a duck on the card I thought I was going to get a duck for my birthday. I was always, always disappointed - especially if there was a pony on the card.

When I was about 4 my mother told me the white spots under my fingernails meant I had told I lie. I didn't recall ever telling a lie so I figured that my perception of a what a lie was must be off, and could not figure out what a lie was for several years.
