Are you thin or thick skinned?

# Does being teased seems to bother you more than most people?
# If you say something stupid or wrong, do you remember what you said for ages?
# If someone criticizes you, do you tend to overreact?
# Do you feel like people ignore you a lot?
# Do you feel like you give in to pressure too much?
# Do you spend time worrying about what people think of you?
# Do you second guess decisions that you make?

Are you Howard Stern or Bruce Willis?

I'm happy with who I am, and don't really crave outside approval.

It hasn't always been this way, though. I used to think people's opinions were important or clever or a matter for guidance on how to live.

Not any more. That was a long long time ago!

It turns out the only person who knows what's best for me and how to live was... ME all along!

I chose the second option... I'm pretty thick skinned...

How about you?

A mix but really depends on
1) the topic
2) whether I've already lost respect for the other person involved

depends on *where* I am at the time!

In the states I care way too much what other people think, mostly family members......but same as TT getting better about it and caring less and less over time.  The key is to not spend a lot of time here, getting bombarded by snippy comments about my lifestyle and dealing with a retarded ex-wife, nosy Mum and family, etc....

 when travelling?  Never!  People don't judge me and I spend most of my time alone anyway, no time for being sensitive or worrying about the small things when I am enjoying my time immensely. So obviously the key is to spend more time on the road in future

Yeah I'm pretty thick skinned generally. I have a long fuse. But there are some (like nosy Mum's hehe) who can make that very short at times...cos I am just waiting for the snipe...and it always comes

50/50 but leaning more on the thick skinned side

I'm a practical joker and a wind up merchant so I have to be very thick skinned because I get back what I deserve

I'm extremely easy going unless someone is being rude or cruel , then I can be equally rude and cruel , but thankfully that dosen't happen often .
