Being somewhat of a loner,I don't make friends or have any ,other than the few I've known for years , and they live 650 miles away.So it's a non-issue with me.Anybody my age is usually not worth knowing.Including me.
no, but most love me because i'm a crazy fool. i don't care if people understand me. i kind of prefer they don't try too hard; likely they will be wrong.
yes, but only the people close to me. no, because i make an effort to clear it up. dr. suess said it best...
I wish it didn't matter, but unfortunately it does. And yes, it really frosts my muffin if someone misunderstands me.
Of course it matters what people think of me. Only to some and till some degree but of course it matters what certain people think of me. I can't believe so many people said blatantly no... As a person who is excellent in getting misunderstood I think it has to bother you at some point. What's the fun in conversating and stuff when people don't get what you try to say... Of course here it also differs from person to person. If it's someone who means something to me and it's about something serious I just want to be understood generally, yes! You can still be really selfconscious and dont care about what other people think of you anymore.
I feel like it does in a way because, I care how people view me. However, i will not Change myself. I just would like people to know the real me, and have no assumptions. Make sense ?
Very much. I'm not changing for them generally neither, but that doesn't mean I don't care at all how they view me.
it matters sometimes. i care what my family, friends and my hubby think of me and always want them to approve of how i act and what i do, coz it makes me sad to disapoint the people i love. but i really do not care what people at work think of me, or people i hardly know etc. i would want them to like me, but if they don't for watever reason, tough shit. i am who i am. like it or lump it buddy
