Everyone cares. Especially those who say they don't.

I think this could be the truth!

I care way too much what people think of me. I hate that.

I tend to agree...altho I'd love to say I don't care what anyone thinks of me I really do - it's human and only natural I think to want to be liked and accepted

I MUST AGREE WITH YOU .

How could you possibly not care about what people thought about you? What if somebody was truly and deeply in love with you. Shit, if someone said that to me knowing how sensitive I can be, that would nearly bring me to tears of sheer happiness. It is part of one's very sense of dignity and integrity as a human being. At the biological level, where emotions are primal, we are programmed to react strongly to both offense and effection. At the psychological level, where emotions manifest as feelings and interact with primitive thoughts, it is the psyche itself that can be metophorically wounded by offenses to infantile, crass comments ('your mother is a slag!'), egocentric perspective ('you're a cunt!'), group identity or deepest insecurities like insulting your religion. So again, how can you say you don't give a fuck if someone insults you when the conditioned response is to retaliate or revenge?

At the philosophical level, however, reason and interpretation combine with will and imagination to rule over both biology and psychology, and neither genetic programming nor behavioral conditioning need hold sway. The highest powers of the mind encounter offense-and deflect it, make light of it, or you just laugh it off I guess. This is where you need to be able to discover the good in the bad and transcend both. I guess that's maybe where Jess and Katt are coming from (well I know as far as Katt is concerned, although I might be wrong), that whatever offends them never harms them. I find that dignifying.

HELL FUCKIN' NO... judgemental assholes

Talk about a contradiction in terms!

I only care what someone thinks about me if they are basing their judgement upon an untruth or hearsay. That really irritates me to no end and I drive myself quite nuts trying to defend myself against them.

Otherwise, I could care less what someone thinks of me. As long as it is based on reality... take me or leave me, I really don't care at that point. You can't please everyone.

not really.....a compliment doesn't hurt though uh-ohhhh gotta go....don't want my computer to get struck by lightning

Yes, yes, yes!!!! I want to know how others perceive me. I need to know my strengths and my weaknesses I need to know what I'm doing right and what I'm doing wrong. I need honesty in all aspects of my life. Otherwise I'll never know.

Obviously.....I don't. I'm beautiful.....everyone is

On seldom occasions, yes....but most of the time, if you don't like me, "FUCK YOU!"

Nope. I don't care.

I can olnly treat ya with the kindest, utmost respect, and even be your pal.....

But if ya don't like me and especially if I KNOW you don't, then fuck you. No skin off my back, no chip on my shoulder.

Simple.....as.....that.

I care. I always want to know how people perceive me.

I know that I am far from perfect, and I enjoy looking into myself for growth.
