Could it be "No quiero ser ese tipo".......? I see You quiero ser de ese tipo de gente.....when I click on the google.

Of course I mean guy and they mean type. Do mexicans use tipo for guy? Gracias.

I have seen it written as el tío - guy la tía - gal, el tipo- guy ¡Ese tipo se parece a un tío que va a mi curso.! that guy looks like a dude in my course! Amongst the Asian community here they refer to anyone older as "Uncle" it is a form of respect, but I have noticed that the young guys when they josh around they call each other uncle. so there is an idiomatic shift going on globally. item in list
