Never.

I'm proud of them. In Slovenia I don't anyone who would have this hobby so many people are fascinated when I told them about it. I like this hobby and I wouldn't collect if I felt embarrassed about it.

I don't feel embarassed beacuse it's a great hobby! And then it's very contagious beacuse some of my best friends started to collect too! :lol:

there's no need to feel that way, if you like it, you do it: simple, without problem :D
and I'm very happy and proud to have autographs of my fave singer (Anastacia), my fave band (Maroon 5) and all my fave actors and actresses (all my autographs collection!!)

and then it's so much FUN! You ARE HAPPY when the mailman has got a big yellow envelope for you, coming from abroad!!!
and just one autograph from a celebrity you love, can make your day!

I LOVE COLLECTING AUTOGRAPHS {thumb2}

People can be so heartless. Now I never mention it in school, and when I go to my postbox which is a 5 minute walk away from my house, I have to hide my letters under my top in case anyone sees the name of who I'm writing to. Even my friends think I'm sad. And it is so bad when I get my letters weighed when I am sending abroad. The post office worker always gives me funny looks when I go and get them weighed. One time she just stared at the address/letter for what seemed like a whole minute for no reason. That was so embarassing. At least my family support me. My sister worships my collection, but cannot be arsed to write letters for herself. That's my rant. Your turn.
Aamir you don't have to put up with that buddy {thumb2} Don't let anyone make fun of you for any reason. Kids can be really cruel but they're probably jealous as hell really! You've got a great hobby that you're passionate about and you've got mates on here too! I got so much **** when I was a kid too coz I was in to old movies and singing. The people that bullied me have even told me on facebook that they only did it out of jealousy coz me and my little group of friends always seemed so happy :lol: Take no notice of these idiots Aamir, they're probably mean coz it cuts them up that you're better than them {thumb2}
Thanks for the support, margotchanning! {thumb2}

Yes I do get a little embarrassed at times especially when my parents tell there friends it's my hobby and interest but my parents like me collecting they like how I have a hobby that keeps me amused! :D :D
I don't like telling other people because I get worried that they might start too! I know thats really sad but I like to be special with this hobby as no one I know does fan mail only people on this site, but when my friends come round they love looking at my wall, and sometimes they spend ages staring and think its amazing how many I have LOL but yeah I can get embarrassed at times... :? :lol:

I totally agree with Sprock Chick. I've never felt embarassed about this hobby. I love it :) When I told someone that I collect autograph they're shocked and they don't know how it's possible. Some friends very often ask me what I sent recently or what I got :)
And yeah one autograph can really make your day ;)

no, i don't get embarrassed at all

my friends and cousins think it's cool and i've sent off requests for some of them and shown others how to, i even got a Steve McFadden autograph for my best friend's mum

the thing i find annoying is trying to explain to people who think they're fake how i know they're not

I'm not embarrased at all. I've met some great people and have a trunkload of great stories to tell. I just don't bore people telling them all of the time. Even people who don't understand it are impressed when I bring out some nice pieces or cast collections.

No, but I do feel silly carrying a letter to the mailbox with a very famous name on it sometimes, that's all. :neutral:
