If someone told you that you come across to people in a negative way, do you step back and look at it from their perspective? Not saying you have to agree with it, but do you stop and think about if there is any truth to it or do you just blow it off?

It could be in real life or online

disclaimer: not that it helps lol....but this isn't about me. Just a topic for discussion

I'm stuck right in-between JW & Shoe... some I'd say "kiss it" to, some I would take the time to listen to.
Depends on the advice giver... I look for friends that I see wisdom in... some are better at giving advice than others; some like to give advice in areas they don't have skilz in. ohwell

I'd listen to you Rose laugh

You know you aren't going to live that one down for a while....right? laugh Just don't aim for the ear laugh


OT: I think regardless of who said it or how it was said to me, I might step back and look at it. I don't have to agree, but I know what I type and what I am thinking don't always come out the same laugh

Yeah... even if the advice came from someone that I don't consider one of my "reliable" friends... I would pause and think. Some pauses would last longer than others, js.

If someone told me I came across as negative, it would prove to me that they didn't get the joke and that I had wasted too much time on that person already.
