What will other people think of me if...
I really want to
[dye my hair a crazy color/date a guy who is shorter than me/wear orange kneesocks to school/ask this girl out who is "out of my league"/go trick or treating after age 12/etc.etc.etc.]
but I'm worried what other people will think of me. HELP!

There are certain times when you should listen to other people's opinions. And, there are times when you should not.
Think about it. WHY live your life caring what other people think? You won't make yourself happy that way, you'll just be constantly working to please others. If you want to dye your hair, go ahead. It's YOUR hair, and it can be dyed back eventually regardless of the color. At the same time, listen to the honest opinons of other people. If your best friend since kindergarten tells you that you look like an obese oompa loompa in solid green cocktail dresses, well, they're probably telling you the truth, and listening to them would be to your benefit. Get the idea here?
Something like dating someone "other people" can't see you with shouldn't be anything to worry over either. You like them, so who cares if they're an inch shorter than you? Same concept as before applies here too. If someone you know that you can trust tells you that a guy/girl will treat his significant other like dirt, then take their advice to heart.
So in conclusion, you shouldn't worry about what other people will think when you do something. Wear what you want, do what you want, and use common sense. Listen to your close friends and family. Why? They are the people who know you the best (besides yourself, of course!)
