Do you care what others think of you?

By friends and family, sure. By random strangers, why?

I don't care how compliant a person is, there will be others who disapprove of something about a person. It may even include how compliant the person is.

"You know you can't please everyone so ya gotta please yourself"

 

I care what my friends and family think of me. Others, not so much.

 

I dont give a rats tail!!

 

Nope.

 

Only to the point of us getting along. If my personality clashes with someone I will excuse myself and leave them alone. It doesn't bother me we don't get along. You go your way, I'll go mine. Otherwise I like to be liked. Don't we all?

 

No.............maybe a little when i was younger,mostlly i just go with the flow(live)

I am the black sheep(family), but i dont judge and they(brother and 2 sisters) dont either




Mzzls

 

I've spent my whole life anxious, depressed, and caring what everyone thinks because all I got was bullied and criticized by so many people, everything I did or liked or looked like was stupid/etc to other kids (and some adults too, unfortunately). I've gotten older and am trying to not care what every single person thinks anymore. I'm feeling a lot better mentally because of it.

 

Excellent! To be alive is a gift. There are many that will try to make sure you don't enjoy your life. Get away from them and NEVER look back.

 

Exactly. After I stopped drinking so damn much (forced IP), I noticed I can think better and deeper. I was convinced I fried my brain with substances forever. I had also attempted unaliving from being ripped apart verbally by certain people I lived with, and also all my life (is the actual word allowed here?)I realized I think differently and solve things in my own way. Being ignored or screamed at or called stupid by a lot of people before I could even explain what I meant and where I'm coming from, made me lose confidence. I'm getting better now. I'm making people actually listen to me, and I'm not reacting so emotionally anymore. But I do use forums to kind of experiment if I'm actually "unintelligent" or not, or if those people were just hateful assholes.

 

Like I only post certain opinions of mine and discuss certain issues with people I meet on forums. I'm still scared I'll be called stupid and such irl, again.

 

Rick Nelson sang it best, "You can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself."

 

I realized even those closest to a person will hurt them sometimes. So I'm trying to stop relying on other people to be happy.

 

Probably too much

 

If the actual word that you question being allowed here is "FUCK", yea it's allowed. At least as many times as I've used it I've never been chastised for it. On your other comment about being unintelligent the opposite may be true. You may have a tremendously high IQ which many people cannot comprehend. They just do not understand how your brain works and because they don't process like you do they shit on your parade. Fuck 'em. Your better off without the shit dumbass fuckers toss at you. (See there I used the word fuck three times)

BTW, it has been studied that higher intelligent people are more apt to explore what the world has to offer, take chances discovering the unknown, which includes trying mind altering drugs.

 

to say you dont care what anyone thinks about you is probably bullshit unless you are a hermit like the unabomber Kaczynski , however to care about what some random person on the street or internet or even just a casual acquaintance nah

 

I try to treat people by the golden rule, if that’s not good enough that’s to bad.

 

I liked this response. Thank you
