And if they tell me to do something, I do it, due to being a mindless sheep. What if someone told you to stop being a mindless sheep? You're gonna cause his brain to explode with talk like that. |

I don't really care what people think. Not sure how I got there, but I did.
The only people who I care what they think of me are my best friends and females I want to enter a relationship with.
Of course, if my friends didn't like me, they wouldn't be my kinda people, so we wouldn't be friends.
And girls... well, I only go for girls that are my type, but I try to point out that I am their type, too, and try not to act like an asshole in their presance.

Everybody, no matter what they may say, cares at least what a few people think. Yup the only people who really dont care are people with boogers hanging out of their noses all the time and like their un bathed.  He just proved you wrong. Because he cares about the great U S of A, TOUGH GUY! |

I care to an extent what people think, but there are some people who are gonna find your faults no matter what. Most of all I try to impress two people
1. God
2. Me
but I'm pretty easy to get along with

Interesting quote.
I don't think it's that black and white though. There seems to be some misunderstanding as to what the whole phrase actually means. Not caring what others think doesn't automatically make a person an asshole.
Some people just have to turn that "off." Using myself as an example: A few years ago, it bothered me that there were people on this board and elsewhere that hated me. It drove me up the wall to know they were going off, making their own little boards with five or six people and trash-talking me. And then another board sprung up. Then another. And another. Then someone makes a YouTube post. Then there's a rant on MySpace calling me out.
You just have to get to a point where you have to shut all that out. You get to the point that if you don't, it starts to affect you.
And then, completely separate, is my orientation. Had to deal with that for years as well. Trying to find a balance in there of being who I am and still trying to gain acceptance. You start to realize that's impossible sometimes.
Like I said, there's still some people, a few, whose opinions on me I cherish and appreciate. But overall, sometimes you just get to a point where you have to turn it all off in order to stop letting it affect you.

Yeah, it kinda depends on what you mean. There are people who aren't bothered what people think, and then there are those who legit do not care. Its the ones who do not care who seem to be the jerks.

...how did some of you get to this point? I mean ideally we should all be like that. Not crapty about it, but feel free and confident enough to actually enjoy life on your own terms. There are no rules of course, just wondering your experiences. Or are you not there yet? I'll let you know when I get there. |

There are no rules of course, just wondering your experiences. Or are you not there yet? When you get a little wiser, and maybe a little older, you will come to understand that the only thing you can control is yourself, and the way you view the world. You can't get into someone else's head and change their mind. Therefore, because you can't change the way someone else thinks, the only thing you can do is change the way you react to how they think. Cruel words and unkind gestures only hurt if you let them. |

I basically got to this point because I was extremely unhappy pretending to be someone I wasn't for the sake of people expecting me to be that person...and so slowly I made a bunch of changes in my life...and just stopped giving a damn what people thought about me and doing whatever the hell I wanted to.
I am a way happier person for it.

I do pretty much what I want. Id prefer if people liked it but it's no big deal if they dont. I'm pretty used to people thinking I'm a little outside of the norm.

I didn't mean for the thread to sound like "Screw everyone's thoughts" it was more the use of the phrase where you do your own thing and are not troubled by criticism
