“is it normal to care too much about what other people think of me”

Another soul answered...

I think it's okay to care about what people think of you sometimes. We all have days when other people's opinions get to us. But it shouldn't become your normal. Don't spend your life trying to be someone you think others would like. Be yourself, make choices for yourself, and live in a way that makes you happy rather than constantly wondering how others perceive you. At the end of the day, you're the one who has to live with yourself, and you're the one person who will always be there for you. Don't lose yourself trying to be someone for everyone else.
