hi,
i think if there is one thing that the "subjective reality" theory gave me, it's not too give a s**t what anyone thinks anymore. Even if you don't like or buy in to the entire idea of SR, I think it's useful because it opens up your eyes to the fact that you dont really know what other people are thinking. For example, if you offend someone, annoy someone, or embarrass yourself, how can you be truly sure that what you are doing is truly offending that person? From my experience, most people, unless truly outgoing are not going to confront you. And in that case you are free to choose what they are thinking. For what they are thinking is really only your perception of what YOU think they are thinking. (i hope i am making sense, i am not really very good at this... it makes sense in my head ). the point is, that if you read some more on subjective reality and then take it out into the real world, the first thing you will notice is that people's reactions are really just your IDEA of their reactions, your PERCEPTIONS of how you think they should react based on how YOU would react... and because you cant feel what people are feeling or think their thoughts, why should you care about them? Do what you want... i think there is a saying that goes something like... "the people who matter don't care, and the people who care don't matter..." something like that anyways.

good luck!
