    It used to be important to me but i've only just realised that i really dont give a sh1t anymore? It used to be that the idea of someone having an issue with me bugged the piss out of me. So what about the rest of you?

    Your answer is totally different to the question. Do I like to be liked? Of course. Do I care about being liked? Not so much.

    My shameless thanks whoring on this site would suggest I am an attention seeking asshole who strives in every way to be liked and/or accepted by people I don't even know, so, yeah, I guess I do care :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    I used to be liked but then everyone found out that I leave my fast food trays on the table when I'm done.... My social status went straight down like a cheap whore.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,224 ✭✭✭Bolag_the_2nd


    like me or loath me, i am who i am, deal with it! ;)


  • Posts: 17,378 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Don't care what anyone thinks of me in work.. I barely try hold a conversation with some people. Outside work, I wouldn't mind people not liking me but bitching about me would annoy me.

    Your extensive photo campaign in "know your nerds" would seem to indicate otherwise.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 740 ✭✭✭star.chaser


    yeah, i think everyone experiences this sooner or later. the next level is giving those people a proper reason to have an issue with you. that's the fun part :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    Getting old is great isn't it? :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,488 ✭✭✭pikachucheeks


    If people don't like me, that's their decision and opinion ... I couldn't care less. I know who I am, as does anyone who matters to me.

    I think, people should have to have a valid reason for disliking each other. If someone's being nasty and giving you grief when you haven't done anything to warrant that sort of behaviour, it becomes petty and pathetic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,252 ✭✭✭✭stovelid


    Basic rule: anybody who asserts that they're not worried if they're liked or not is generally very worried indeed. Or at the very least, are manfully battling a massive prior affirmation addiction.

    So if you say you're not worried it means you are and if you say you are worried you are?

    The only way to not be worried is to say nothing at all.

    I see.

    Bingo.

    Although I can't really see how anybody would really relish being widely disliked, even on the net - as in disliked if they were not contriving it for their own reasons.

    In that case.........
































    ........... nothing to see here.

    +1.

    44 pics and the next poster to you has 22. You dont want to be liked, 6th. You want to be LOVED!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,203 ✭✭✭partyguinness


    I was once told..."Only care about the opinion of those you respect"

    I dont give a **** what anyone thinks of me because I think 99% of people are complete idiots anyway.

    Just as long as I am acknowledged as:

    1. Being excellant at my job;
    2. being fair and reasonable;
    3. Fantastic in the sack;
    4. Not somebody to be ****ed with.

    Then I am content and not in the least bit bothered about whether I am liked or not as long as the belief is reasonably held by that person..:)...that type of school yard **** is for insecure teenagers.

    Deep down I enjoy winding people up...

    Holy bearded marmite.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,554 ✭✭✭✭alwaysadub


    Meh,not too bothered either way. If people like me,all well and good,if they don't,that's their problem. I'm not going to lose any sleep over whether someone likes me or not.

    I like myself now,and that's the most important thing :).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,228 ✭✭✭epgc3fyqirnbsx


    People who hate me learn to love me

    People who love me learn to hate me

    There's a brief window in the middle where the like me and I like it there!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,597 ✭✭✭anniehoo


    I pretend i couldnt give a crap...but i secretly do! Im a total people pleaser and am getting worse as i get older :o

    ps. as a side note...wheres Ranting & Raving gone to or am i goin blind?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,191 ✭✭✭✭Latchy


    Some people can find something simple or trivial to dislike about somebody then build it up and feed off it

    It's more important to like yourself then to be hung up or worried about being liked by others .

    That's one good thing about getting older , you care less and less about who does or doesn't .

    Doesnt everyone strive to be liked by people in some manner? The world would be a very un-competitive place if they didnt!

    "I'd prefer to be hated for the person I am,
    than to be loved for the person i'm not".

    Heard that quote recently.

    I used always worry about what people thought of me, now I couldn't care less!
