Depending on the context and the situation would make a difference. If I asked a question and was told "It doesn't matter" I may have the tendency to feel invalidated. If I was told at the end of a lengthy discussion "It doesn't matter anyway" I would feel annoyed. Why did we have the discussion in the first place if "It doesn't matter" But if I asked a choice type question such as "red or blue" and was told "It doesn't matter" I would have no feeling, just a decision, "red or blue". Then if they didn't like my choice we would be back to invalidation or annoyance. Hope I explained myself clearly, but if I didn't, what does it matter?

It really depends on what context they are using to preface that statement. Many times there are questions about such things as teenage angst, or others opinions about something you do. People then answer this way knowing that often times these types of situations are transient and pass on their own given time and wisdom. While I rarely give the answer it doesn't matter, I do often say that it is how you perceive something rather than what others think. That statement applies as an answer to this current question.

SAY: Nothing
FEEL: That they are not really interested or care, which depending on the topic of the discussion I could become upset that they don't care.
It really all depends on a number of things relating to what you are intially talking about
