I couldn't really care less...;) I mean if I know someone doesn't like me it doesn't really bother me. But I still try to act nice to them. They leave me alone and I will leave them alone. I have best friends that are friends with people who dislike me but it's not a big deal as long as my best friends respect that. There is some people I dislike to so it's not a big deal. :) I wouldn't ever want to change just so someone would like me! I'm me and I'm staying that way!! :)
Good Idea for a thread BTW...:)
Now that I've staggered to 40 I realise that as long as I like me then it doesn't really matter.... I cherish the friends I have (real and cyber!) and am civil to those who don't like me........
Wow thanks for all of the responses guys! I really do think it has to do with age - when I was a teenager it bothered me lots. But I'm getting to the point now where I just don't care, even if I don't know why, and I concentrate on those people that matter in my life.
It is like so many others say: the feeling softens by age!
But in fact I still feel so bad when I feel that someone does NOT like me; the problem is that I always wonder why exactly they dislike me. Is it my appearance? Is it my character?? I am a loving person and very easygoing, and I hate it to be "not loved" without any reason :(
Like many others, it used to really bother me when I was a teenager, but I'm not bothered so much about it now.
I don't need someone in my life that will judge me before they even know me. :rolleyes:
That is the same way i feel..Quote:

No, not really... they can just kiss my, you know what! I don't want to say it on here because of the younger kids on board. :) It's not my problem, it's theirs.
