So do you or don't you care what people say?...and be honest...

Lots of us say we really don't care...but deep inside we do...we've all learned how to "hide" behind things...be it humour, looks, intelligence whatever the case...but we do hide..

So do you or don't you care what people say?

I guess it depends on who it is and how they say it! If they are my friend then I know what they are saying is BECAUSE they are my friend. Sometimes words can scar your heart, but it heals!!

I guess it all the depends on what my mood is at the moment. And I agree with our local frog.....it all depends how something gets said.

It totally depends on who is saying it.
"what people say" is too vague. . .

That is so true, once it is out there you can't take it back. In my last relationship a lot of things were said which were very hurtful and something I can't forget blues

But is somebody having an opinion about me and doesn't even know me, I shake it of. Can't carry that kind of crap around.... wears you down.

I hope to care about people, but don't care what they say about me...

I care about people, I hope, but don't care what they think about me...

I don't care if they get the wrong idea about me...etc.

What you are is more important than what people think you are.

It's not what they say or think about me, it's how I treat them that I'm more concerned about; and what I'll be looking back on.

Ooooh! Deep and heavy!

Ok...remember...!

...gimme a phonecall!!!'

I care...I'd like not to...but i do...regardless of what they say and how they say it...

But its as urban said...at the end of the day...all that will count is how i responded to what they said...and that is how i hold my head up...

If I have respect for the person who is saying it I DO care. If I know someone is right...I do take what they say into consideration. I always consider the source. wink

Well, sometimes we're trying to be more sensitive (considerate?)
and sometimes we're trying to be less sensitive (vunerable? Thicker skinned?)

dunno

Depends on who you are and 'where you are' currently, on life's lovely little journey of surprise gifts and hidden charges...

yay frustrated

confused

Words are about all we have, especially on site. They can hurt, they can affect one's day. It would be nice to be one's own island, but such is not the case with many of us. Words have started wars, toppled regimes. Words are what set us apart from all other mammals. Paws

I agree it always depends on how close the person is to me whether I care or not!

If the person is way off base and speaking from something they don't know anything about..I will explain it once and that's it, but only if it's someone I respect...if not I can't be bothered to explain myself at all! I get tired of trying to explain myself sometimes to people that have no clue!

Otherwise I could really care less what others think of especially rude judgemental people, because I already know who I am, even if they don't!

I really don't care at all what they said. I listen but i really don't care, it's my life and i will do as i pleased. I don't care because i live life respecting others.

Okay..so the gist of it is that if you don't know the person, you don't take it to heart or laugh it off....

And it bothers no one that someone who DOESN'T KNOW THEM has felt the need to comment about them???confused
