You don't, unless you want to be a hermit, a sociopath, or that obnoxious fuck who screams into their cellphone for twenty minutes on the city bus.

But there's a difference between caring what people think, and obsessing over it. If you're worried about what random strangers think, just remember that most of them are focused on their own lives and not whatever you're doing. If it's your own friends/family, and they're being super critical of you, that's a separate issue. In that case, it's always helpful to get a neutral, third party opinion about whether or not their complaints have merit (not here. We're terrible at neutrality.) Even if they do have some merit, bullying isn't a good way to "help" people, but an honest answer can help you decide what to do next. You've got three options here.

1. Confront them. Let them know that they're not being helpful and you don't want to discuss whatever with them anymore.
2. Ignore them. If they're doing it to get a reaction out of you, not giving it to them might be enough to discourage them. If not, just remind yourself that everyone has an opinion, and theirs isn't any better than yours.
3. Cut them off. You're not required to spend time with people who make you feel bad about yourself. Go ahead and let them know why, if you want to, but that's not obligatory either.
