no advice here. criticism's a part of life, you just have to deal with it.

I agree with others. On this site, the ignore feature is a good thing if you really can't stand what folks are saying about you. Unfortunately, ain't no such thing in real life. However, in my cynical view, most people who criticize others probably don't know what they're talking about. I'm not saying you're without flaws or anything, as we're all flawed, but people criticize others sometimes because they don't want to face their own faults, or they need to feel good about themselves instantly, or they're just miserable pathetic little fucks who are only happy if everyone around them is just as miserable. Crackpot theories, mind you. People are so easily offended and defensive and thin-skinned anymore, and if they just understood that most people are just criticizing because they're fools and the planet Earth and its assorted deities are not out to get them, they'd be happier, unless of course people actually seek to be more miserable and less happy.

I am agreeing here. I don't talk to many people on here because I am not here to get to know anyone. But people will talk and will say mean and hurtful things. Just tell yourself your not that or the cruel things they are proclaiming and you will be fine.

This is true. You know who you are and what you're about in one way or another, so people who criticize you are just irrelevant. And if others would rather believe your critics than see who you really are and like you for that, they just lost the game as well. Not claiming such a thought process is easy, but it sure helps. I'm also one who just really posts in the boards but otherwise keeps a low profile. It's not that I think I'm better than others, but I just refuse to get involved in all the silly drama, because I don't need it.

My thoughts exactly.

If you feel that you're being incorrectly judged and it botheres you, then you'll just have to attempt to correct their judgements.

all we can do in life is be ourselves, if it offends people then they are obviously not worth your time.

I myself don't like criticism. Especially if what people are saying about you is not true! I really don't think that's right! Dan, if you feel that someone is saying bad things about you that aren't true, just ignore them! These people have nothing better to do. Dan, you're a cool guy, and these people aren't worth your time!

Personally, people can say what they want to say and I'll handle it in a calm and well calculated way.
