what does it mean to be self conscience?

Question

i keep hearing people say that alot of humans are very self consicence, but what does that mean?? exactly what does it mean to be self conscience??

Answer 1

Do you mean self-conscious? Self-conscious means that you are very concerned about how you look, how you present yourself, what you say, how you say it, but most importantly, you're concerned about how others judge you by your appearance/demeanor/speech/body language/attitude, etc.

Answer 2

self-conscious.

this is what a dictionary says:
1) Aware of oneself as an individual or of one's own being, actions, or thoughts.
2) Socially ill at ease: The self-conscious teenager sat alone during lunch.
3) Excessively conscious of one's appearance or manner: The self-conscious actor kept fixing his hair.

i like what other people have said more, though, because they make it clearer how it is most commonly used: being worried about what other people think of you.

Answer 3

In short - screwed up. You worry too much about what other people think. What is more important, what you think or what someone else thinks? personally I don't give a rat's bum what other people think... it's what I think that matters to me.

Answer 4

that you worry what every one else is thinking about you. you think people are thinking negative things when they look at you.

Answer 5
