As to people and what they think or say about me never mattered since I am conscious of, even as an adolescence. It was partly because I was interested in learning and participating in too many things apart from the regular studies that there was no time left to observe or think about what others were thinking of me. Partly, my goals were always very different, like the road less traveled, so generally there are no others to think about. In other words, chose your unique goals and stay focused on it. What others do or think or say about you is not your problem. It is theirs and best is to leave it with them.
