Poll: Do you care if people insult you behind your back?
I don't mind if people say things behind my back; what I don't know can't hurt me
I always want the opportunity to defend myself, so I prefer they say it in front of me, even if it hurts
If it's something I can't control, I'd rather they say it when I'm not there, but if I can control it (like personality) then in front of me
If it's something I can control, I'd rather they say it when I'm not there, but if I can't control it (like looks) then in front of me

RE: Do you care if people insult you behind your back?
In the event of someone talking behind my back and the subject was my behaviour or something along those lines I would like to be told, instead of being kept in the dark. Improvement doesn't come without suggestions and complaints. Of course, if someone just think I'm a douche, then I'm obviously not going to stop them believing that, after all we do live in a world with (none (and semi-)) free speech. Everyone are entitled to have their thoughts around people.

What I can't stand is the type that talk behind other peoples back (really often) and behaves completely different around that particular person. It's really annoying and I think it is a negative "feature".
I'd rather ignore the whole person, confront the person or be happy ever after and not bitch about it. It doesn't really help.

However, I am by far any angel. I have talked behind other peoples back, not negatively or with disrespect but simply discussing others. I do not find that to be a negative thing as long as one is able to keep on the subject without being disrespectful.

Just my cents.
