Do you care what they think?

If you wear something and your friends say it doesn't look good do you change your clothe? If they don't like the way you cut your hair do you change it? I really don't care what people think about the way I dress or how my hair looks, I feel comfortable the way I am. Do you care a lot what others think?

I don't care about what other people think about me.... UNLESS you are the one feeding me, then what you think about me matters. If you don't like what I'm wearing, so what? This is ME. You gotta accept me for what I am and for what I am not. If you can't do it, you're really not a friend. Don't get me wrong... I DO listen, but I will certainly not change for another person. If I seem to agree with what a friend tells me, then MAYBE, I would consider the suggestion + it also depends on how I am told about something that is not nice.

You right about that, it makes a difference the way people tell you things.

So true. Just by the manner your friends tell you something, you'd already know if the mean well. It's a matter of playing good judgment.

I care WAY TOO MUCH about what others think. I am a very self conscious person. I am always wondering what others will think when I do things and make decisions. I'm really trying to get better at not doing this as much. It's not a good habit to be in. It can really kill your mood at times and make you stress when really you shouldn't have to.

As long as you happy you shouldn't worry to much about what others think.

I totally don't care what others say. I'll wear the clothes I feel like wearing. I'm more on comfort than style. I wear the classic or the safe-side fashion shall I say.

I never really care what others think about me by the way I look or dress. I will try to dress according to the situation or the place where I go and it completely depends on my own instinct!

When I was a teenager and I liked to wear the latest fashion and superb jewelry. I also put make up on every day before going out. I used to ask my friends what they thought suited me in the way of clothes. I cared about what they said. Now I am in my thirties I wear comfortable clothes that are classic in style. I have every day clothes and lovely clothing to wear for special occasions. I like to have long hair and I have it how it feels right. I don't care what other people think about the way I dress.

Same here, in my teens I worried all the time about what others thought now I just do what I like.

Dear friend, I do care to certain limit and make sure that I could be presented in society more socially acceptable. But more than that I give much preference to my own comfort and liking. But certainly I do care of others who care of well being of me, but make sure the final satisfaction is my own.

no, I don't.. if I am happy and comfortable.. that's all that matters to me. when my kids were small.. I was lucky if my hair was ever brushed! I just didn't have time and now that I have time I just brush it and whatever it decides to do that day... is what it does! lol!

Hi missy! That is the way I am too! I tend to do what I want and don't really care what people think most of the time. But, then there are times that I do listen to people and get angry at myself for doing that! Most of the time I just do what I want anyway that is the most comfortable for me because I am the one that has to live with me!

It depends on how it was said to me that's all... because we cant really escape from conformity, it will always be there, and so with the non-conformist. I agree with you though I usually wear what want to wear as long as it is comfortable to wear with.. hahahha have a great day! and merry lotting everyone!!!

Depends. I consider what they say, but I'm not enslaved to it. For example, if someone tells me what I have on doesn't match and looks strange, I might consider that. But I'm not enslaved to it. I don't sit at home worried about if so-and-so is going to like what I have on. It also depends on what direction they are coming from. If someone is amused because I wore something from Target instead of abercrombie and fitch, well they can jump off a cliff. Who cares? Two identical shirts, one $75 at A&F and the other $15 at Target, forget that. In this economy, cash is king.

i get that a lot actually. I am pretty lazy at cutting my hair. So when its uncut, people tell me it looks shabby. When i cut it, people tell me it looked better earlier, never realizing that they don't really have a say in the matter

Kids can be very judgmental when it comes to clothes, they have there own style that's for sure.

Hi missybear! Nope..I don't care what they think. I have always ben known to have a tyle all my own. not very trendy but mine. It doesn't matter if they like what I'm wearing or not..they aren't buying my clothes. I think we should all be who we are and not worry so much about what others are thinking.
