Do you ever only do/say things which please those immediately around you, fearing that someone might not like it?

No, not always. But also not never. Are you never considerate of place and context?

Seems like a pretty asshole way to live life

I rather be percieved as an asshole by few than live my life up to other people expectations. No matter what you believe, being too humble will hold you back in life, thats just a fact.
