For 99.99% of the time - no, I don't care. I'm a middle aged, disabled, overweight wife & mom. If people have a problem with any of that then that's on them. Before becoming disabled, a mom & old I didn't care what people thought of me. I never wanted to fit in or be "normal". The truth is there is no "normal". We're all unique. We're all individuals. We're not meant to all look, act or be the same.

The 00.01% that I do care is when people younger than me ask me to join things like chat rooms or social sites. Then I wonder if all the young people on there are wondering what some old hag is doing hanging out on their site. I think they probably either think I'm being creepy by wanting to be around "kids" or that I'm trying to feel younger by hanging with younger people.
 
I do kind of care about what people think. I don?t want to be known as something bad, I don?t think anyone does. And I just hate being judged. It sucks to worry about what people might think because you aren?t being yourself. :(
 
idk i hate myself so i think everyone else hates me so it doesnt really matter what they think of me because i think they hate me either way lol
but i guess i care hhhhh
 
Yeeahhh I do it really really sucks :(
I have social phobia so i'm constantly worried people are thinking i'm dumb when i say anything at all or my voice is ugly etc.
Also I don't have E.D but i struggle sometimes w/ eating habits cause i knowwww most people would find me prettier if I were thin instead of average. like i said it sucks!I wouldn't do that if I didn't care what people thought of me ^^ since i never think less of anyone for such meaningless things but i can't help but assume everyone's judging me.
 
I kinda filter myself down a bit to seem more masculine but yanno

probably should just do me
 
I do care what others think about me but I don?t lose sleep on it, I am who I am and I try to not let other peoples harsh judgment change that
 
I said no because consciously I know that the opinions of others about me don?t matter.
But that said I don?t think anyone is immune to freakin out from time to time about what people will think. Myself definitely included
 
Yes, I do.

I'm trying to change that, though. Life is pointless when you live by someone else's standards.
 
I had surgery on my neck back in 2016 due to an abscess in my neck. I had it drained, but it was still swollen post-surgery for about a week before it healed. I was set to have my picture for my ID card taken the week after surgery, because I needed it for a job. I looked like a complete doofus in my ID card picture because my neck was the size of a watermelon. Literally, every single time someone saw my ID, they just had to comment on my neck. I got so sick of it that I actually went down to the DMV and paid to have my picture retaken.

I?m trying to cash a damn lottery ticket, not trying to get you to evaluate my neck. It was ridiculous how I spent around $35 for a new picture because people couldn?t stop getting a few laughs out of my neck. I haven?t heard a comment since. Why? Probably because I look like a human being without a neck lump. I didn?t ask for their two cents. It?s unbelievable how people couldn?t keep their mouths shut about my neck abscess.
 
I don't want to! but I do

It's especially bad when it comes to school/grades/what teachers think of my work cough
 
Generally, no.

If a friend or a family member thought lowly of me then I wouldn't feel great.
 
ohhhh gosh probably too much..... it's a huge source of anxiety for me D:

i'm sorry to hear about the neck abscess thing feral that sounds awful!!!
 
Not really ;-; I just do what I'm doing and if someone doesn't like it, well that's their problem and not something I really worry about :]
 
I only care if I need something from them or I need to close a deal. Otherwise, nope. If they think of me positively, well, good. I appreciate it. If not, so what? It won't make me completely happy pleasing every person I meet besides there will always this one person who won't like you no matter what you do lol so yeah, I'm not wasting my time worrying about that.
