Have you ever received criticism that you have accepted? If so, what was it?

I receive my mother’s criticism a little better. Generally, it’s after the fact that I’ve done messed up, AA-ron. 😩😅

i'm probably not perfect, but i've never received criticism that i didn't think was just misperception on their part, maybe even coming from left field. also I rarely if ever receive criticism that I think is in good spirit/constructive rather than negative. I guess from my mom sometimes, and sometimes I actually accept it. so I guess my first statement was incorrect

Yes. I was told I spoke too fast and too low when I was teaching. Fair assessment. I’ve worked on it and have improved

My love interest said to me: You are overthinking too much. I think I did and still do occasionally.

The last girlfriend I had, the last one who stuck around, she badly wanted to meet my family and I shut it down repeatedly (and yes, she knew I have a shit relationship with them, she was convinced she could help fix it) and she told me she felt like a side chick and about not letting her fully into my life and I tried to impress on her that the people I am related to are not a part of my life, anyway yes I accept my intimacy issues and I understand where she was coming from
