I've heard people say that if someone doesn't like them, it's their problem. I've also seen people worry too much about being liked.

Is there a happy medium or is it important at all?


I'll start by saying that it is important to me that I come across right and people see my good side a lot more often than my bad. I'd much rather have a friend than feel like I have to watch my back. Most people are such friendly sorts that I would be losing out if they didn't like me, so yes, it is important that you like me.handshake hug

Do you mean on this forum?

Or in real life?


Online....I have found that it makes no difference whether people like me.

When I turn off the computer, they are gone. And if I never turned on the computer again, they'd still be gone laugh



In real life, I care that people have respect for me and the work I do.

If they like me, that's great. But if they don't like me, they can just go on about their business rolling on the floor laughing

My friends know me like I'm with all my good and my bad sides.
If I meet new people I'm just myself, sometimes good sometimes bad.
If someone doesn't like it.... Doesn't cares me.
Not everybody have to like me because I don't like everybody neither. I don't chance myself to attract someone.

cheers

believe it or not no; don't care and don't care to know; and the ones I know ought to know better or otherwise we are just wasting our time.

Neighbours, co-workers, perhaps team mates all can make a difference in how well your day goes just because of their opinion of you. Opening a door for the next person, male or female; saying good morning to a stranger.etc. I find these things make me feel good anyway and I would hope that the other person might smile. And that can't be a bad thing.grin

IMO if you like and respect yourself (as i do) then others will also like and respect you.

and remember this you can't please all the people all the time.
