i think it's easy for a lot of us to worry about how we're viewed during our younger days; we're still growing, both emotionally and in personality. unfortunately, far too many end up holding on to those ALL those concerns well into adulthood rather than shrugging some of them off. some become super neurotic or acquire body/image issues while others just become so vacuous as to be seen as egomaniacs.
