QUESTION: Do YOU care about what OTHERS think about you?

Post Reply New Topic

No I don't care what others thinks of me unless they think I am something and it's going to effect my life, then I'd care. But it depends on the situation of when I care.

Sometimes, when people dislike me, it hurts me to a greater degree than I imagine an NT would be, but in general I try not to. Inevitably the fact that we do care somewhat about what other people think of us leads to the continued support of this forum, if you think about it.

Nope, I stoped caring about what others thought about me when I realised that most people are basically morons, including my own family

I don't care unless it's someone who I care about, a friend maybe or someone else who I respect and whose opinion I value. Then yes, I do care and it would make me think about what I was doing or how I was acting.

Yes and no. While I have developed some sense of confidence, i still realize that i am within a social matrix and if the wrong people really get to disliking me i could have trouble.

Generally, no. About the only exception to that would be at work, where I prefer that the people above me think of me as a good worker and an asset to the company. Which they do (if my most recent performance review is any indication). One of my former employers summed it up quite nicely: "Sure, he's a bit of a flake... but he gets the job done."

Not a great deal. Obviously I'd want to know if there was a problem or something but it's not like I spend every waking moment in sheer terror obsessing about what every person I've ever known thinks about me. Life is too short for all that crap.

Actually it really depends on what others one is caring about. I mean if its parent's, or sometimes close friends then yes I would care but otherwise I don't.

that's a stupid question, don't you think Jesus even cared what people thought about him?

No, I don't really care. If people don't like my obsession with Russia, f**k them.

yes.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. I don't know why I sometimes care I just do. But most of the time, I'm quite happy to tell people to get lost if they don't like me.

I couldn't care less about what people think of me.

No. If people can't accept my Routemaster obsession, than they don't have to read the posts that I post about them.
