Do you care...

Post Reply New Topic

I care about what my true friends think and often worry about mucking things up with the people who matter.

As far as physical appearance, not at all. I do hope people think I'm nice and I don't want to be completely ostracized, but I don't hide my eccentricities. They're an invaluable part of me. If somebody doesn't accept my quirkiness, then they can't be my friend. I honestly don't care if people talk about me behind their back, as long as they're nice to my face. I was outwardly teased in elementary school, but then, it thankfully stopped. I'm sure people still did (and still do) whisper about me, but as long as they don't outwardly offend me, then I don't mind.

For the first 5 - 10 second, yeah, I might, but after that, I just shrug it off and move on with my life.

I pretty much care only about what my family thinks of me, as they are the closest to me and know me the best. They're also comfortable with how I am, and I am free to act myself around them without getting bad reactions.

Beyond family, there is probably just one or maybe two people whose opinion of me I care about, but that's because I consider them like family. Other than that, people can think whatever they like and I don't give a hoot.

I care way too much. I think I'm making up for the first ten years of my life where I didn't care at all.

It's getting to the point where I'm paranoid that everyone I talk to talks about I rude I am as soon as I'm out of earshot.

No to both answers, used to.

Though I just wish that they would actually tell me what they think of me though, as I'm not the slightest bothered, and this way I'll know where I stand with the crowd.

I care a lot about both.
Because of my inability to grasp subtle hints etc i always feel unsure.
I'd rather know for sure that ppl don't like me then not knowing either way.
At least that way i know were i stand and then i can change thing, like trying to make those ppl like me or don't go anymore were those ppl are that don't like me.

When I was a kid I obsessed over what people thought of me a lot. Now I only care about the thoughts of people close to me, but I don't open up about it.

Yes. I care about people.

As I said earlier in this thread, I'm getting to the stage where I have very little reason to worry about what other people think of me.

Putting this in perspective: I had an epileptic fit at work on Monday, and I returned to work today fully prepared to laugh at myself - the only thing I really cared about was whether or not people had seen me drooling involuntarily on myself (I have precious little dignity to hold onto as it is, and I didn't really want other people to see me in that state of helplessness).

Other than that, I was able to joke about it all day.

I only worry about what people say if they mean something to me, if they're just gossip queens or people that think they're the bees knees then I don't care too much - or I try not to. I look and do as I want, as long as it isn't disrespectful or harmful to someone, so I don't see why anyone should have a problem with me.

I care that people get the truth about me, and don't make false assumptions. What they think of the truth, I usually don't care about--unless they're someone I like.

Yes i do still care what others think of me and i always will,enough said.
