Caring what others think.

More than one person on this forum has proclaimed that they don't care what others think about them.

I believe that to be complete bullsh*t.

As social beings we can't help to care how we are percieved by others. Some may fret about it more than others, some may go out of their way to change the perception of themselves by others and some may care about it somewhat less then others but I believe, that to a degree, it is only human to care how others perceive you.

In fact, I believe that those who proclaim loudest that they don't care how other's percieve them, in fact, are those that care the most and desire the greatest levels of acceptance.

Anyone care to agree, disagree or comment?

Get a grip you paranoid child. Though your comments prompted me to make this thread, it is in no way directed at you. It is an observation made while on KMC and in life in general. You were not the first person to say those words nor will you be the last.

My interest is in the phenomena where people believe they can totally disassociate themselves from a society while being a being that is societal by our very nature.

Everything that people do towards you affects you in one way or another. Whether it strengthens your resolve, weakens it or makes you question your beliefs about an issue or yourself or affirms such things.

This applies to me, yes. But I think there are people out there that actually just don't give a f*ck. We call them "a$$holes". Their world is completely consumed by self-importants. And I believe most of them will be that way until they die. One characteristic of a real, genuine a$$hole is they don't let anything from outside their space sink in.

I understand where you're coming from and I think there's a difference between being frightened of what other people think and caring about what others think.

If a person doesn't like me (frankly) they can kiss my ass. I'm not going to let that opinion stop me from being me. But for some reason, I do care. I wonder why. I get a lil sad, but I get over it quickly.

... unless the person that has a poor opinion of me is a real a$$hole. Then they can just pucker up. I guess it really depends on who it's coming from.

This reminds me of Marcia Clark. Remeber during the OJ SImpson trial how all those shows on E! and vh-1 kept dissing her hairstyle, and then the prosecutor of the OJ Trial changed her hair to some ugly perm? She apparently gave a shit...

I mean, the hairstyle was frigg'n freaky but If she liked it, she should rock it. shrugrin

Some beautifully hostile replies you've generated with this post, Kharma.

I do agree to an extent. It's very hard to lump everybody into any sort of behavioral category(i.e., "everyone who does _____ does it because of ____"wink but there are definitely trends.

But when people say that they don't care what anyone thinks of them, I don't think that's true. I believe most everyone cares what someone thinks of them, whether it be friends, a significant other, family, schoolmates, coworkers or any combination of these.

Caring what others thinks about us is a reflection of what and how we think about others. This is probably a bit bold on my part, but anyone who makes the claim that they don't care what anyone else thinks is probably a reflection of anger; anger that comes from a lack of caring relationships.

I care what the people who I love and care about think of me. I want acceptance from my family and friends.

That's where it ends. What Johnny Stranger thinks about me while I'm walking down the street, I don't care.

Deano
but sometimes familys dont respect who you are though. people strive to make there love dones feel proud. thats not a bad thing of course but its not overly important to do so.

parents can be expert in making you feel guilty and bad because you dont do what they say or desire. If parents cant respect their children's right to freedom of belief then forget em, I say. they concede their right to be taken seriously.

tabby999
i agree with backfire, i do care what some people think, but when it comes to someone who i've never met and who's opinion has no baring on my life, i dont care. its all down to who the other people are really. you HAVE to care what some peopoe think, otherwise your being selfish.

Emperor Ashtar
I failed to elaborate correctly on my first post, Generally I don't really care what iothers think about me. I just don't pay attention to opinions regarding, but I do care about others well being in general and place thier priorities before mine.people's opinions surrounding me are just mere distraction IMO.

There is a difference between not caring what someone thinks and allowing someone to disrespect you or who you are without making some sort of retort. It's not too different than believing someone has an ignorant opinion and telling them as much.

I care mildly what people think about me, but I enjoy manipulating their patters of reactions to get a result I find amusing...is that bad?

JimMorrison227
If I know the person, yes I care what they think of me. It can be both positive and negative. If I am told I am amazing in bed, I would care, because then it supports what I always believed and it would make me feel amazing. If I am told I am terrible, I would get insecure and resort to help via websites, friends, profesionals. If It works for many situations.

If a stranger on the other hand, comes up to me, and calls me gorgeous and handsome, or hidious and disgusting, either way it effects me in no way, because I won't have anything to prove to them, because I'll probably never see them again.

Everyone seems to think that admitting you care what others think is a crime, it's not, especially when it's bull anyway.

I agree, I believe that there is a big difference in not caring what a certain individual thinks about you as opposed to people or society in general. There are many people whose opinons I have litttle respect for and care not of their opinons of me, however I don't think that anyone can approach the rest of humanity (with any self honesty) maintaining that approach.

To add to my point however, I couldn't care less what a particular person thinks. There are people like Whob and Sithsabre who have a tangible difference in opinion as to how I lead my life. But, I couldn't care less what they think, personally. It has less to do with what they think and more to do with what they say in front of others that leads me to interact with them as I do.

As for maintaining my approach, it's served me pretty well over the last few years. It's never people who know me and have a differing opinion based on a face to face interaction with which I have a problem. It's only people from teh back seat of a moving car or on an internet forum that have the balls to condemn me. People loose their resolve when standing toe to toe with another human being.

But, all that being said, I still buy certain clothes and have product in my hair when I leave the house.

I don't disagree that a lot of people who say it probably don't mean it, but I disagree that anyone who says it is talking bullshit. I generally do not care what people think of me, because I generally do not give a shit about people.

Even right down to family and friends. Sure, I'll listen to what they are saying closer than I would a random human, but ultimately other people's opinions of me don't matter to me. I don't need praise to keep me going, nor does critique slow me down.

There may be times in life where humans have to act a certain way to apply to a certain situation, but that doesn't equate to caring what people think of you. E.g: You act civilly in a meeting with co-workers you don't particularly like, because doing otherwise would get you fired. That's not necessarily caring what others think. You aren't doing it to make them like you, you're holding back to benefit yourself. If you went into the room with them and purposefully acted in a way that would result in them liking you, with that being the goal, then that would be caring what others thought.

Personally I dislike it when people say "Bullshit, you do care, everyone does.". It reminds me of that patronising parental comment/convo:

Person: I'm never having kids. I know that for a fact, I truly do not want them.
Parent: Nah, you're saying that cos you're young. When you get older it'll change, it changes for everyone.

I don't particularly agree with that whole "I want acceptance from my family" either. I love my family, which is exactly why I'd be disgusted if they didn't accept me for who I am and what I am. I'd never change to suit them, because I shouldn't have to. My parents have openly expressed dislike for things I've done or ways I've acted, it doesn't bother me. The reason being that I don't do things unless I believe I should do them, or say them unless I want to say them.

It's never a question of "Should I be saying/doing this?", because by that time I've decided that I want to. I always go by the rule, you're only undecided if you've not made a decision. Once you do something, you've done it for a reason and shouldn't care what anyone else thinks.

Agreed.

For example here on KMC, Kai Lein even went so far as to make a YouTube video of himself smoking and telling us he doesn't give a shit about what we think about him. Needless to say, he got banned. Pathetic thing was, he kept making socks, wanting to be accepted back into the fold.

As for me, I do "give a shit" about what people think about me. But that's only for people I respect.


Saying something like that is more of a last resort to save face, really.

Anyone care to agree, disagree or comment? I'll entertain your thought.

In the general sense, I consider myself not to really care what people think of me (when it comes to judgemental opinion), and I've gotten alot of respect and friendship because of that fact. I don't mean doing things to be "different" and getting attention either. What I mean is that I don't let people's opinions get to me if I don't consider them important, because I've reached the stage in my life where I've known for a long time that everyone is going to have something to say about what you do. I myself am used to having people comment on what I do, and exaggerate it, positive or negative.

Now there are exceptions to that, of course I would care what someone thinks if it affected me in a more tangible sense, if my boss thought I was doing a bad job, I would want to change it, because in the workplace, my own opinion of things may not matter if I'm not in charge.

Also taking things into consideration, if someone was reasonable and something I did bothered them, I would have no problem stopping, if it was addressed in the correct manner. So I wouldn't be an *******, a more accurate way to say it is that I value my own understanding and final judgment of myself far more than others to allow other's (particulalry the less well-informed), to get to me, even on serious issues like race, creed, and religion etc.

I guess its called being cool. smile No need to shout and boast about how I feel about people's feelings on me, but being confident in yourself and accepting who you know you are.

Oh no. Why did you have to say that? That's not a valid example, unless you're in high school and buy your clothes to fit in with your particular social group. Once those days are over, people tend to develop their own look. Unless they don't care, in which case they end up dressing like people who don't really care...so then they're all trying to look the same?

I'm not going to go and buy George brand clothing so I can say "LOOK! I DON'T CARE!". Do you see how ironic that would be?

I buy whatever I want to buy, be it George or Nike. If I see a shirt I like I buy it, unless it is ridiculously priced. It has nothing to do with caring what others think. I mostly wear band shirts, so how does that figure into your equation? I doubt the general London populace are impressed because I have an Opeth shirt.

I've been to rock and metal concerts wearing a white Nike t-shirt and green cargo bottoms, as opposed to some of the tryhards who would wear all black. I stood out like a sore thumb, but it didn't matter. It's what I'm comfortable wearing and it's not too expensive.

How can you logically say that I care what people think just because I was wearing a Nike shirt and not a George shirt?

I never bought it, cause i said the same thing. Then someone gave me a pink CK tee for my barfday last year and I never wore it.

One day, this year I went to the beach, and turned pink in the sun.

So i said "Well I am pink, so who gives a shit if I wear a pink t-shirt?"

So I wore It. cool

I was just pointing out how I find it odd to label singular or multiple humans as a music genre from the decades past, just because they kill themselves. Though I've been through that about a million times with as many people, so I won't worry.

Who, Quiero? Well that's hardly very nice, PVS. I suggest you apologise.

I was merely pointing out that it it's just a colour and if you are a secure male, you should have no problem wearing it, unless you genuinely do not like the colour, which doesn't seem to be his case. I personally don't like bright, garish pink. Dull pink isn't bad at all.

That was MY point, why be abusive to the man? Always with the abuse, man, haha.

Well concerning the first quote, I'm afraid call a person a goth because they listen to "gothic" music isn't that stupid in my opinion, but naming a genre of music after a style of building? I think that is stupid but you didn't noitice it, so I take it you don't find stupid things stupid, you things logical things stupid and stupid things irrelavent and unworthy of your attention...

concerning the last quote, I mis-quoted you, the sarchasim in your post was apparent, my mistake, I was actually agreeing with you, I have pink shirts too...

Funny how people on the internet actually know more about the situation that both VVD and I, and we're the ones who actually know each other. Why would I seek acceptance on the board from him anyway? Surely if anything I would do so in person.

If I wanted acceptance from anyone on this board, it would not be his. I respect him, I don't need nor want his acceptance, but I'm glad I'm the topic of private conversation.

Perhaps, the problem isn't with his humour...maybe it's with your attempts to be funny while maintaining that arrogant "I'm a far superior breed of dog than you" attitude which I love about you!

Really, I was mistaken. I thought you were putting him in a bad light, seeing how "arrogant" is more derogatory than complimentary. Anyways, lots of people are arrogant in the GDF, few utilize it to their advantage.

I find some of his humor does require a double take at times, but that one of his obviously wasn't meant to be taken seriously.

Either way it would be a problem with his humour wouldn't it? I wasn't trying to be funny, but I certainly didn't actually believe Quiero was of the belief that pink shirts turn men into gays. Which his reply suggests I did.

Back to the drawing board for you.
