do you care what people think

Some. I care how I affect people. It may hurt sometimes, but I want to know if I’m not a good thing to someone so I can give them as much space as possible. I do not see another’s opinion of me as a reason to change who I am in ways that don’t align with me, however. Only when their poor opinion clarifies something I find wanting in myself is it motivation to change. If that makes sense. 😂
