Question: What if people think everything you do is pointless!?
This is all I ever hear:

"Why do you use proper grammar!? No one cares anymore!."

"Why are you saving yourself for marriage!? No one cares anymore!."

"Why are you majoring in English!? Science is much more useful!."

Doesn't anyone care that I happen to LIKE all that stuff about myself!? Just once, just ONCE, I'd like for someone to appreciate my values without me having to defend them!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I know exactly where you're coming from!. But some things you are pretty much forced to know and do because of life!. I know it's hard, but there is a certain way you need to present yourself in this country in order to be taken seriously!. For example, proper grammar!.
Saving yourself for marriage is a personal value to that person, and he/she is looking for that perfect person that is going to understand that!.
There are a lot of things I don't agree with, but you need to know how to play the game of life!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

don't hurt yourself the present time every one is busy for making money and the property!. If they have these things they wanted more so they don't care about what is wrong or right!. But some people are there they always care for every right thing and every Right persons!. If not , than how can we reached up to the mars, cause of right calculation!. you have read the books of the great writers ever you found any thing wrong in their literature or language!. the people, who shows that they don't care about wrong or right they are actually so far away from the truth and wisdom!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

ok, you posted this question unser philosophy so here are my answers!.

Initial question: some people are bound to think everything you do is point less thats not your concern, if thats all you hear, and it bothers you maybe you should listen to a different source!.

Q1&Q2 obviously you care
Q3 ask them to explain why science is much more important without using english
Q4 obviously you care that you like all that stuff about yourself, someone does appreciate your values and that someone is you, you don't need to defendthem from anyone including yourself!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Finally, someone with similar values to myself!. Supporting the civilised English language and making sure that verbs are conjugated properly!. The answers to the three questions you listed above are all "Because it fits with my personal ideas of progress and development"!. The people who ask the questions, have you ever tried asking them about their values and if they are against progress, Www@QuestionHome@Com

people looks to"what in that thing\person for me"!.!.!.if there exist something they turn nice!.!.!.
but when nothing to take from you they don't even care about you!.!.!.people are self oriented!.!.
but they ATTACK you when you THREATEN them!.!.!.i mean by attack is the complains you receive,and threatening them is by them thinking "how dare you think you're better than us"!.!.i mean that people think you're getting above them when you DREAM and plan to achieve your GOALS !.!.!.so when having these special and amazing talents,practicing and improving it threaten certain people!.!.not because people don't have some!.!.but because they don't have your confidence and determination to follow through with it!.
so don't care about the rejection you WILL receive AT MOST times when achieve something or go on to do it!.!.(at most means not all people)and this rejection should motivate you not demotivate you!.!.

remember,people prefer to do the easy things not the right things!.!.!.it take courage to tell somone how good he is !.!.!.and what easy it is to do the converse!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't think "it's pointless to people"---rather it could be pointless to "some of them" perhaps!. Look above the answers you got so far! All of them were nice to you!. Funny thing is this, I have been doing a certain job for the last 25 years and my family, wife, daughter, old mom----we're quite okay but to my wife my job is pointless! Huh huh huh huh !.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

What's the use of worrying what others may think, if it has meaning to you that's all that matters!.

Not everyone is going to like/agree with what you aspire to do!. Just the way people are!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
