I htink it doesn't matter what others think of you; it's what's on the inside that counts.

I know, corny cliché, but that's just my stance on this. Then again, there are some people who thrive off of other people's thoughts about them. Just try to think less about them. If you like something, do it! It doesn't matter what other people think. As long as you're happy, then that's all that counts! :)

So do I. It's a character flaw, and there isn't a lot you can do about it. But at the end of the day, you are living your life, they aren't. So you have to make the decisions and choose the paths that are right for you, even if people think badly of you for it. And if they can't deal with it...tell them to go screw themselves ;)

Dear "I care"

It's good that you care what people think, it indicates that you are a caring and sensitive person, which we often need more of in this world!

As long as you dont put too much effort into caring about what people think about you for example how you dress, or your image. As long as you are happy the way that you are then the people who REALLY care and love you will be happy too.

Take Care
Kate

The fact that you care about what people think says you're a little insecure. I'm gonna assume you mean that you care a lot about what people think of you. Firstly, you should learn to love yourself, and know that the only opinion that matters, in that case, is your own. Never let what other people think influence your opinion about yourself. =)

Wonder why it's so important that you care what other people think of you. Im not going to lie everyone cares what some people think of them. It's like some of us can care less that strangers think we are stupid or immature, its true I can care less. But when it comes to my close friends I do care to an extent. So its natural to care what some people think of you especaill when you are in middle school up till senior year because you are stuck with them for a long time. But what you need to concentrate on is are you happy? Do you dress like them because they want you to, or do you act a certain way. The best way to break that is take a break from being someone elses barbie and be yourself. It takes time to learn how not to care what others think, but it soon comes natural. So focus on what you want and think of your positive self and not what others want you to be.

LadyV answered Sunday April 11 2004, 10:51 pm:
Take comfort in the fact that you are not alone here; most people are very self-absorbed and probably worry so much about what others are thinking of *them* that they don't notice how self-conscious *you* are.
Realize that life is short. You do not have the time to waste on worrying what other people think. Try to adapt this adage: "I shouldn't care what anybody else thinks unless they are someone who is personally important to me in some way that matters." Family members, close friends, your boss, your teachers, etc. are the only ones you should really be worrying about, because they are the only ones with opinions that count. Even more important than their opinions, however, is your own. Learn to trust yourself and listen to your gut instincts. Every time you want to do something that doesn't feel quite right, ask yourself if you're doing it for yourself, or doing it because you don't want people to think badly of you. Figure out where *you* want to go in life, and follow that path and that path alone.

Everyone cares somewhat about what people think, but, you cant get carried away or, you'll let people rule your life. But try and do things your way so that you don't care what others think.
