No me importa!
I've read (somewhere) that the phrase "No me importa." can be used for "I don't care."
So, in this case, 'importa' is a verb that acts like "gustar", and the phrase is literally translated as "[it] is not important to me." ¿Verdad? So would the following be correct: No me importa el series de 'Star Trek', pero quiero mirar la pelicula nueva. Y, si mi novia pregunta '¿Dondé quiero comir?', pudeo decir 'No me importa.'? |

Creo que estás correcto Lo está conjugado en la tercer persona (import[a]).
No olvidas el acento en película, mi amigo

"No me importa" maybe sometimes a bit impolite: No me importa lo que hagas, por mí como si quieres tirarte por la ventana. No me importan tus problemas, cuéntaselos a otro. |

Gracais. I've lived with my girlfriend for about 4 years now; polite isn't as important as it use to be.

- ¿Dónde quieres cenar esta noche? - No importa, donde quieras. - Gracias por venirme a ver cuando estuve enfermo - No tiene importancia, lo volvería a hacer. No importa / no tiene importancia is more polite and sounds better to the ears . Look: - ¿Dónde quieres cenar esta noche? - No me importa, como si no quieres cenar |

Ah. So, I probably shouldn't look at her and say "A tú no me importas."? Just kidding, 'course I wouldn't say that.
"No importa." I'll have to remember that (I'm not a very picky person, so I say 'I don't care' a lot). |

It's more like "It doesn't matter to me. Anywhere's fine." In that particular usage, at least in English, the response is not lessening the importance of the person asking the question. It just means that you have no preference either way.
Though it does also heavily depend on your body language and how you say it, aswell as context. "I don't care." can definately be a mean, rude, or impolite response in some situations. |

OK, thanks, I was wrong. So, I can say "I don't care" without being impolite
