Why do people always try to act cool and care what other people think about them?

I think its our nature as social beings.  ANd being social beings, being left out decreases our rate of survival because humans function communally and not individually.(in our modest beginnings)  So fast forwrard that to the present...old habits die hard i guess.  Nobody wants to be alone.  Those who put an act are the ones who are in need of the most love.

they don't actually know that they act crazy or weird when they want to get attention. they don't have enough self-confidence to show who they trully are or don't like themselves for who they are, so they act totally different from their real personality. they try to act like someone who they feel will be accepted by people around them and that makes them crazy.

If you are too cool, people will take advantage on you.    If you make good choices. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we embrace for that day. We cannot change our past… we cannot change the fact that people act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one thing we have, and that is our attitude… \n\nI am convinced that life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. \n\nAnd so it is with you… we are in charge of our ATTITUDES.

I try not to judge people because everyone  is different and has their own ideas.  I try to see the good in everybody and try to show my respect for them.

No, it's bad for you to care about what people think about you. You are your own person. Love yourself.

Everyone cares about what people think of them, no matter what they tell you!  But the only thing that should matter is finding what makes you happy.  Self happiness is the best thing anyone could ever do for themselves!  People, Magazines, Movies... Society will always say you need to act like this or look like this... but if your happy the way you are, who cares if someone doesn't like it, because around the corner there is going to be someone who thinks its unique and cool.  Yes i am a girl i deal with it everyday its and ongoing struggle for me! I am my happiest when i am alone in my car listening to Jack Johnson.

Why do you care what people think? You are just looking for attention. People are going to say you're a lazy drop out & all sorts, why are you looking for that bad attention?

I dont know it seems as though some people no matter who they are think of other people as something different.  No one seems to take the time anymore to think about how others live and I think thats what you are getting at?

We all have feelings, it's part of who we are. Don't strive to be "normal" because it doesn't realy exist, we're all different. Just be yourself, and ignore those people who have nothing better to do than critisize for it's own sake.

its possible that someone is grumpy but others still like being around them because they are fun, or show that they care or are sweet, etc, etc. in other ways. maybe they dont take it personally, they just think that youre grumpy in general but not a bitch.... its totally possible

People find comfort in believing others are like them. They created a "normal" way of acting outwardly but inside everyone is still unique. (being different isn't the bad thing though, lying to yourself to "fit in" is)

Because with regular people, you're just relaxed and confident and being yourself, youre cool, then that hot guy/girl comes around and nerves get the better of us. We become unsure of how to act or what to say...we start blabbing to avoid awkward silences...its like being under a spotlight and youre crush the only audience peering at you...

I tend to think that as we get older we care a lot less about what other people think. There comes a time when you realize that you have to live your life to please yourself and those that you love. What does it matter what other people think? They don't have to live your life, you do. I call it maturity.
