Do you worry what other people think of you?

Well, I certainly try not to care too much about what people think of me. Some people let it take over their lives, like not being able to go to the corner shop without perfect hair and full make up on! But of course, you care about family and friends and want them to think well of you, but there is a balance in there.

Hi Ari, first, I do not like to worry. Second, I couldn't care less what other people think of me. I am myself and I do not ask them to feed me. So, their opinions don't matter at all. Be yourself if you are with your family and friends. Hang out with the ones you love. You can choose your friends. If you don't like someone, you are not obliged to mortify yourself with their presence.

People have and will always form preconceived ideas in their heads. It's a natural reaction whenever you encounter someone. The best thing that I do is to LOVE me for who and what God create me to be. If I didn't love myself, then I couldn't expect for anyone else to like me either. Everything starts and ends with "me" in my opinion. If I allow other people to plant nests in my head, then I'd end up with alot of eggshells over my head. That's just my opinion of it all. I like me, so if someone else doesn't like me, it doesn't bother me at all. A good friend of mine once told me, that somewhere someone is talking about me whether good or bad, and I don't even know it. So why worry about things that I cannot change, just be happy with the things that I can change. I am the only person that can change "me."

Sometimes I would worry about what others think of me, but these people only limited to the persons who know me. If people don't know me, I would not worry so much. Actually, I don't know why I would worry about what other think of me. I am allways trying to neglect what others make comments on me, but I find it is very hard.

I don't mind and don't worry at all what some other people think about me. As long as I think what I'm doing is right well I just don't care. For me you'll not progress if you always think what others think about you. Just do what is right. Those kind of people are just the jealous type. They cannot stand if somebody will outdone them or go more than they have gone.

Especially people think bad to other when they are in group,I think it is human nature.But we should not care whatever they think to us,it will not harm to us.Let them think.I never used to think bad to other if they do bad to also......

No matter how much we may try to say that we don't care what people think, some how we do care a lot because we are living in a common society. This society has some rules and limitations and if we go beyond these limitations or try to act different from others then, we surely have to face lot of criticism, which makes life uncomfortable and you cannot live peacefully. There are some fields, where you can be brave and not care for people, like if you do inter-cast marriage, you can ask people to shut their mouths as this is personal problem, but if you become drunk and create problems in society, then you will have to stop it or else you will be in jail.....so it depends where and what are the different grounds, where you should or should not care about what people are thinking.

i don't usually care for what others think. my reasoning is really simple and to me, logical. when we care about what others think, we often alter the way we act/react. we may end up sad or angry with ourself/others. however, those who we cared about won't even know, let alone care, that we are angry or sad. since they are not going to care, why should i? the only persons whom i care how they think are my family. to be more precise, my parents and my partner. i will not do think if i feel it's going to make them sad or angry. after all these years, i'm pretty sure they've got a very fixed opinion of me so nothing i do can change it. as for everyone else, you can think whatever you want of me and i won't bother myself with that.

I try not to let what other people think of me worry me. i try to only worry about what i think of myself. i have to live with actions, words, an deeds. I worry about what i do affects a situation before worrying about other opinions. If you let others worry you, you can not find true happiness and perspetive in your life.

I actually look ignorant from outside, but I am totally care about what people think about me. To tell the truth, I really want to be ignorant. Just be who I am and be what I am. But, I just can't. Couldn't careless. I said it out that I don't care. But finally I think about it so much.

I think it is a natural reflecting feeling when we consider how and what people think about us. But if it could become a WORRY, it depends on how you deal with it. We are social but independent at the same time. Worry it when it need be worried.

Being shy, I always used to worry about what people thought. But, the more I think about it, the less I worry. I mean, just think about the other people you worry about. They are probably sharing the same worries as you. So, there is no need to worry. And if they are looking you up and down to find something wrong, then they are the ones with the problems, not you. Being confident is a huge issue to overcome, but realizing that others are going through the same thing as you makes it much easier. So, for me, I don't care anymore. It makes it so much easier to go out and have a good time. And if people are judging you...who cares? I mean you are who you are, right? If they don't like it, well too bad. That is the way I learned to overcome this issue!

it depends on who is the person. If is someone that i care, that i respect, it's not that i'ld make things to try to impress and go out of who i am, but i'ld try to not make something that could let em think i'm a jerk.On the other hand if it's someone that i don't realy know or i don't like, they can think what they want of me XDD

No because i don't care about other people my live is my live!

No. for as long as I am not doing anything bad or lewd in public and even in private I do not sleep around, then I do not care! Why? coz people will dislike you whether or not you do bad stuffs! So, for as long as I am doing what is normal.. I do not care!

Nice topic! I will care less about the people around me, if they are staring at me for the kind of clothes that I wear then I just let them stare at me. I wouldn't know what they are thinking about me unless I ask them why are they looking at me. which is of course very awkward thing to do. Bottom line is that if you not doing anything wrong then you should not worry about the things that people will say or think about you. There goes a saying "Mind your own business". I hope this should be applicable to all people. But if that person really needs help even if they are not asking then I am always available to them too.

be my parents be my friend be my teacher be my boss be my lover be a strange I never care what people think about me I just always live my life in my way I never like getting opinion form people that you have to do this thins That is such an irritating thing

Personally speaking,I don't care other people's think,for everythings I told and promise to my friends is by my heart and I can do that.But if I cannot do that things,i WON'T give my hand.

Yes. I guess many of us respond that same way. Even if the person is a stranger, we do think what if he feels bad... In the family, among relatives, at work place...every where we get something or the other to be bothered about...

I feel horrible about myself. I have no physical abilities, am ugly, and cannot talk to girls right. I feel like a nerd, since I excel in academics, but are horrible at athletics. I have very low self esteem, and am almost on the brink of depression. I want to make a name of myself, tell the others that I am more than just a nerd. I have been working hard to strengthen myself, with little results. And one day I will. I promise that I will make a name for my family, and I won't be known as a nerd anymore. I will become faster, stronger, and more athletic.
