What do you hope people say behind your back?

[Totally Nyx 35,503]

I hope people make some light jokes and have a laugh at my expense. Something to show we have some nice camaraderie going. If people didn't like me, I feel like they would either not say anything about me at all because they don't want to think of me or they would rant about me.

[ShadOBabe 18,984]

That I’m a good person and that they feel good when they spend time with me. X3

[Rainbow Cloud 16,323]

Would hope they say nice things though they probably don't, either way I don't really worry about people's opinions of me nor do I let them influence me

[applesjck 5,601]

That I’m awesome!

No, but really, I hope that people talk about me in a good light. I try my best to be likeable! Although if they do say not so good things about me, what I don’t know about won’t hurt me. As long as said bad things don’t get back to me, I couldn’t care less about the mean things they say behind my back. 

[ZiggWheelsManning 7,370]

That I'm hard working, helpful and respectful  

[Sonic Shimmer 4,116]

Nothing. If they have something to say I'd rather they say it to my face.

[Fluttershutter 2,119]

I don't like to think about people talking about me.  I hope there are more interesting people to gossip about.

[Sunset Rose 251]

I hope they say they rely on me. And if they've got criticism, they bring it to me. But if not, then it doesn't really matter what they think about me. I don't think about them at all.

[MaxAnim 38]

I just hope that they are not laughing at me for some weird mistake I did that made me look like an idiot.

[Tom Gallagher 33,521]

I just hope they don’t hate me.

Same here. I don’t want to think I’m doing something right only to realize I was completely wrong.

[Splashee 28,537]

People sometimes talk bad things about others just for conversation. I take it as a lot of people talk about me all the time (means I am alive, visible, noticeable), and sure, it might be negative stuff, but it happens. You can't learn being a better person without knowing your faults, and some aren't even faults.

So I don't really care about what people say behind my back, except when I get hurt by it. Then of course, I do take a moment to think if I can improve, take it as criticism. Else? I cry a little and move on.

[Fluttershyfan94 5,738]

I'd hope nothing being talked behind your back positive or negative is always uncomfortable either way. Since you can't confirm it, I'd rather they say nothing that is. I mean the rare occasions I talk about someone I talk positively so I suppose the same would be preferred.

[Splashee 28,537]

I hope people are always talking good things about me (all the time), but if they aren't, I hope they aren't talking about me at all

[Clawdeen 12,110]

You hope for good things but reality is probably not so good things are being said. 

[Sparklefan1234 161,880]

I hope that My Friends don't just say that they like my artwork when they actually think it looks terrible. 

[ZiggWheelsManning 7,370]

That I'm gentle in knowing when to lend a hand.  

[Iforgotmybrain 3,513]

I don't know, hopefully positive things. I don't think of it too much. I will say I firmly believe that someone talking shit or gossiping behind your back says a lot more about the shit talker then it does you. Screams insecurity.

This so much. It 100% says more about them than you. 

[Hadrien 937]

If they're just about to say bad things about me, I'd rather they say it to my face. That way I'll be able to laugh about it with them. 

But if they're saying good things, that's fine. Let them stew in their love for me.

Lol, how's that working out for you?

Best I can do is 42 cents and this piece of string I had in my pocket ? Maaaaaaybe the peppermint candy I had there too.

What I wish they said: "He is such a kind pony" 

What they actually say: "He is the most kind and loving soul I've ever met" 

What I believe they say: "He is such a loser and his life means nothing. We'd be better off if he wasn't around anymore." 

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 40,294]

The most I can hope for is that they say I inspired some kind of passion within them or uplifted them in some way. Obviously didn't that much in the past, me being the dummy I was back then, but I hope that these days it can be different.
