cynic – a person with little faith in human goodness who sarcastically doubts or despises sincerity and merit.

That’s weird. I didn’t realize it was supposed to relate to one’s faith in humanity. Like when my theatre school teachers would call me a cynic for not believing in those exercises where we would have to telepathically send message to our partners i was okay with it. cause i didn’t believe in magic, not cause I didn’t believe in people.
Your teacher should have called you a skeptic, not a cynic.
