Are you the type of person that values other's opinions? are you threatened by their negative comments about you and do you live on the reactions of others? Or are you the type of person that lives life according to what makes them happy? For me I do not let others' opinions affect me. They are not living my life anyway. I should enjoy my life to the fullest, but I also have a limit to the enjoyment I can do. I will do what I think is not that exaggerated, but I will just do it simply to the point that I am happy. Although, I am a person that likes to be on low profile, I also have had my share of opinionated people as well as critics that I don't even care what they think. But hey, we must always remember that life can only be what we want it to be. So what's your take on this?

I agree with your way of thinking and wish I was able to not worry about what other's thought but have never been able to do so . I always worry about what other's are going to think and will do something that does not make me happy to try and please others . I believe this has to do with a low self esteem as I am able to see this clearly in others so even though I don't see it as such in myself , feel that it must be how others see me . Only when I am really mad can I express how I really feel and not care about the thoughts of others but if I have a cooling down period then I will say nothing at all and complain to family and friends but try to keep the peace with the one I am hurt and upset with . I hate when people are fighting and will keep my mouth shut if I feel I can make someone else happy about a decision they made in life just to keep the peace of all those around me :)

Hahah! I can also be that way sometimes when I am tired of airing out my opinions and tired of arguing, I just stay on one side and keep quiet and argue in my thoughts and then be happy when the argument is already over. heheh!
