i dont , i mean hardly ever. i am quite defensive initially and try to clear my point. but then something just snaps and i give up. if i agree with u then i try to change , if i dont then forget it. moreover i dont give any importance to those who are neither friends nor family, them i just dont give a second thought to...how are u in this regard?

criticism is a negative thought against you but, you can turn it into a positive thing by not really changing yourself for the kind of person others want you to be but by changing your perspectives in life. i use to criticize a lot from the clothes other people wear to the idea of a person to a certain thing. until it came to a point that i too was criticized. admitting something "ugly" about ourselves isn't always a bad thing. recognizing one's mistake and accepting one's view is that of a wise man.

This is going to sound quite naff but I don't really think anyone criticises me , am I perfect lol no I don't think so , Maybe they just don't want to hurt my feelings , . If they did though , I probably wouldn't say anything at the time but I would be quite upset when I thought about it later xx

Oh yes I can take criticism ok but it does all depend what exactly it is about really, but otherwise I will just dismiss it and not worry about what others think or say if I think that they are wrong, but sometimes they are right so that is why I listen to what they are cricizing about.

I am not very good at it. i will most often try to expain my point of view. I to will take it to heart if I feel if is just. I will take it more seriously the more the person means to me.

i can take it depending on whom it is coming from. initially i dont register it but then if it is repeated then i change b and by. i try to make changes slowly slowly adn if i can manage without feeling uncomforable, then its ok, else i dont push myself too hard...

I'd like to believe I do. I'm too lazy to react, and I don't really mind what people think about me - I ponder over the criticism for a moment, and if there's some merit, I change. If none, I simply dismiss it as random noise. I've always been thought to have a cool exterior, so I guess that's that.^^
