how do i stop caring so much about what people think?

I'm guessing your young? It's normal for people to feel this way, everyone goes through it. I once felt like that when I have certain music in my iPod I was embarrassed for my friends to see it cause they listened to hip hop & I liked hip hop but I also liked country music. As you grow up your gonna realize that they are a lot of different people, everyone can't be the same. Dare to be different. It shows courage, uniqueness, and leadership. Next thing you know it people are gonna wanna follow on what you like or may even adapt to it. You shouldn't hide the real you. Always be yourself people will appreciate you more, trust me. No one wants to hang out with someone who being something they're not. And if people make fun of you, so what. It's love & hate at the same thing. They feel low of them self so they pick on someone else so they can feel good about their self. Just be yourself. That's all you can do. It'll get better & you'll hang out with a crowd of friends who like you for you.
