So much more than I'd like to admit, I'd definitely very self-conscious of what image I have (or lack there of). I honestly don't even know what kind of image I want to portray to others, yet I still worry (moreso than I'd like to admit) about what others think of me. Weird, huh?
I think that for me, it's always a constant battle of trying not to care yet tailoring my actions to those around me. I wonder, is that something that society has taught us to do or am I being overly worried about what others think? It's irritating. I don't want to care about what others think of me unless they're people who matter. How do you stop caring?
Meh! So it goes so it goes.
We can never stop caring, as sad as it is. It's a necessary human condition, but as long as it's healthy self-consciousness that doesn't overstep anxiety and paranoia, it's okay. We all have self-doubts, no?
