Why are you so worried about your impressions on others? 

Why are you worried about what people would think of you, what they would interpret out of your words or actions? If you are being yourself, being what you want to be like, shouldn't they be seeing that real You? Are you trying to hide something from them? You want them to think of you differently than what you actually are or want to be? In that case, you can be worried, as they may find out your true side, otherwise I don't feel one should be worried about their impressions, which would give you unnecessary stress and anxiety.

If they misinterpret you, know that it's not your mistake but theirs', so if at all anyone should feel bad then it's them who blindly believed something which wasn't meant to be, they jumped upon a quick conclusion without investigating a little bit or without asking questions.

Best you can do in this case is if it's important for you, those people are important for you, their opinion on you have a significant influence in your happiness, then attempt to explain them that it was not what it may have looked like.

Try becoming someone you really aren't, and if

you don't get the appreciation or attention you crave, you'd become irritated & resentful towards everyone, but if you remain the real you, then even if you don't get enough appreciation or attention, you can still smile and say that at least you had fun & had moments when you felt liberated .
