I don't care if people think I'm the asshole
What do you think is the reason why people feel you are an asshole?
Because they think I am the asshole for never caring about them.
Maybe if more than one person think you are an asshole then maybe something about you is giving off that vibe. Maybe you care about what others think and do some kind of self-reflection and figure out why people think you are an asshole or else I think you will have a hard time making friends.
That is so true. I'll take their advice and be a better person.
Sometimes it may be beneficial to care about what people think as long as there is a balance to it. If you are always focused on what other people think than it may be difficult to take time for yourself. However, ignoring the opinions of others is another thing that could really strip your life of that additional perspective.
