(plus I now have a little crush, but I won't say on who!) I tend to respond well to a helpful critique, and appreciate someone's honest and well intentioned opinions. Other times someone says they don't like something I've done, and I just let it roll off my back, as I like what I've done and that matters most to me. I have only one time really been smashed to the ground with someone's criticism... which was there intent, and they were skilled at ripping new ones in peoples posterior region. It was long ago and thankfully my lovin' hubby was their to scoop me up and push me onward... but I have never forgotten the sting.
