    Do you care what others think of you? Do you wear more than one face?

    I really don't care whether people like me or not. I am as I am and do not pretend.

    Thank you dowsa...you're a hero.

    thanks ed shank!  this is a fun question.  i do care what others think of me. however i wear the same face pretty much.  everybody that knows me knows i have courage and try to stand up for what is right, as much as i can.  also i tell kids, 'a good name is worth a million dollars.'  therefore, do the right thing and be the right thing.  be as truthful as you can. and go by the golden rule.  that's what i try to do.  so by being a good person, and having a good name is what i like.  if i do something that i felt was wrong to another, i call and talk it over.  i have great faith in myself (got that from my dad, who has a high moral compass) and i like for others to have faith in me as well.  Most of the people i know do have faith in me for those reasons.

    That's a good answer, Tabber.

    I care to some degree but then again it goes into being unable to care because I cannot make someone like me that does not but no have only one face that's it.

    I have one face... so I am truthful to it.  I have now become far too busy to think or worry about what people care and if they like or dislike me ... I have however, taken the time to notice that most people don't care about anyone other than themselves and many of them are a bit pushy... It's a new discovery. 


    I don't think I actually care for it.

    I think we all have different masks for different occasions. I work with the public and out of my home where home things are always going on with my kids. I have to put a face on and ignore things at times and laugh when I want to cry. When my dad was in hospital all I wanted to do was cry but had to stay strong and encouraging for him and my mom. There are times when my kids really infuriate me and I have to grin and bear it rather than spouting off what I really think until I cool down. If you honestly look at your life and interactions we all put on a dace because we just have to.

    I imagine it would be tough in your profession not to agree and smile. Only alternative would be a buzz cut and a black eye. Not good for business.

    mom, it seems to me that putting on an act would be more for one's own advancement than what you have described. Being strong and selfless, understanding that it is not always appropriate to burst into tears or scream at children isn't putting on an act. It's self-control, and it is to be respected. You're not self-indulgent; you're honest and considerate, professional, and mature.

    Thanks PKB, I appreciate that and Ed ...I would be out of business if I shaved heads like that;)

    I would care if they found me unworthy of respect . I wear one face .

    I do care what others think of me and I'm oversensitive, I take everything too personal BUT, I'm not changing for anyone.................

    Bob/PKB

    Hey, Julie! I'm oversensitive, too, and take everything personally as well. Do you find that you are sensitive to the feelings of others as a result of how you feel, and are considerate of others? That's what I see in your answers. PKB

    I'm oversensitive to a fault...Until I just give up. I can't please others all of the time.... It never hurts to care.......

    I do care what others think of me, not to the point where I am going to ever put on an act to win someone's approval.  One face is plenty; to thine own self be true.  

    Of coarse i care what others think of me, but most important it what god thinks of me, only god can see the heart..

    I care what others think of me. I dont however go out of my way to change who I  am, just to please someone else.

    no i don't. As for wearing another face, one has to be a hypocrit.

    I am What I am I am a sensative person and I do care sometimes what people think but at the end of the day you cant please everyone!

    My sister is well-liked by a wide circle of friends, associates, and peers.  She is never at a loss for party invitations, luncheons, and so on.   She entertains in her home and is considered the consummate hostess.
    What "my mom and kids and I" see is an unhappy woman who hasn't shared a bed with her husband for most of their 20-year marriage, finding nearly non-stop faults with him.  She is short-tempered and arrogant , judgmental and critical.  Her feelings and opinions take precedence over anyone else.  Compromise is what everyone is expected to do to please her.  She has nothing good to say about our parents....NOTHING.  Her "benevolence" to others just doesn't ring sincere, knowing how she is behind closed doors.  She's what some would call "a street angel and a house devil". She is hypocritical;  want a good example of the pot calling the kettle black?  I'll introduce you. 
    In spite of all this, YOU don't bad-mouth her to ME.

    Bob/PKB that absolutely facinating. Looking at you and your personality, from what i have discovered on the site & hearing about your sister reminds me a little about my sister that died. She was a perfectionist and liked very few people. Even tho she did not hold her distain for others back that much. We were best friends, mainly because i did not tolerate that nonsense and realize she was who she was. I know what you mean about your sister, I loved mine and still do. Facinating stuff.

    Only "two face behind the "wife" s back Telling people how great and loving caring Just like our "Mods are.You men know the" truth.Some day I* will stand up to her .("what's that Colleen In my "dreams)  Are you reading my E-mails again?,begging for "help for abused husbands..

    Fish girl you are right ,Its just that her "Bark is worse than her bit.Maybe its her "right uppercut I fear .Do you feel sorry for me?

    I am as honest as I can be. I’m unapproachable with illusions or pretense. Those harboring secrets appear to be angry or dodge me quickly. Many women adore me and treat me respectfully. I hear anyone who thinks of me and most of my friends communicate over distance by thought with me. 

    Sometimes on a day when I don't have to go out, I go to the computer and take a picture of myself when I first get out of bed. I frown in this photo.


    You would not believe how fast I am to take a shower, fix my hair, put on make up and then I head back to the computer to take another photo. I smile in this photo.


    Yes, I wear a lot of faces. I won't describe them all - no need. You meet them here on akaqa. Make up,hair, and smile-- so important. 


    It's as important to me to look good as it is for me to make my salad all fresh and attractive. We owe it to the ones we are around, I think. 


     

    I think we probably all care what people think, I try to be the best person I can, but must admit I probably behave differently in some situations, I sometimes need to be firm at work, sometimes may even be construed as tough, but I know I have to be. Im different outside work, and my work colleagues and I often enjoy a few drinks and lots of laughs, I love letting my hair down at the pub and am probably more "me" there because I can relax
