Answer 1

No I do not hate criticism as long as it is creative.
I only give creative criticism if I have to and yes, I do worry about hurting others feelings.
Yes, I do have a habit of criticizing myself more so than others.
No, I don't get criticized nearly as much as I criticize myself.

Answer 2

1. Like all humans I dislike criticism
2. I only say something critical if it is constructive
3. Too much
4. No

criticism that is the hardest to take is when someone criticises you for something you already know was stupid/wrong/etc but did it anyways.

If you want to criticise someone then give them alternative action ... if you have no solution etc then it is just your opinion and not constructive at all.

Constructive criticism is good if not keep it to yourself.

Answer 3

i don't hate criticism as long as it is given in a good way and is constructive and not negative and mean. i absolutely take it as a chance to improve if i agree with the criticism.

i will criticize someone if i know them well enough to do that. i also try to always give the advice the same way i would like to receive it so as not to hurt feelings.

in some ways i am more critical of myself but in others i am not. i am more harsh about my weight and my looks and my hair and my clothes.

no, i rarely get criticism, mostly it's from my family. my mom, sister and husband but it's usually good and in good spirit and that's fine with me.

Answer 4

i think that good criticism can help, it only makes me strive to be better.
2>I do not try to criticize unless they deserve it, and yes I respect others feelings.
3>yes I criticize myself, MORE than others.
and finally> NO others do not seem to criticize me as much as I do myself, in fact I have a lot of great friends who respect my views and ask me for my opinion. probably because I am honest. I call it like I see it. but I believe there is a proper way of doing it without putting someone down.

Answer 5

1. I don't mind it - it's all in the delivery

Answer 6

When I was younger I would have to hold back tears when anyone critized me ;; no matter how helpful. If my teacher said I was wrong or my soccer coach said I kicked the ball too hard I got sooo upset.

I haven't really grown out of it =\. I hate being singled out & criticized.

I never criticize others b.c I know how it feels . . I do criticize myself alot tho. Way more than others do, I'd say.

Answer 7

I don't mind criticism as long as it's about something I can do somthing about. There's not much I can do about the size of my feet.

I never criticise others. Like you said, I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

I criticise myself much more than others.

No, I criticise myself more than others do.

Answer 8

No
No
Yes
No

Now, for explanations

I do not mind criticism if it is offered as a change to improve ("This is not the caliber of standards that we need to achieve"), rather than venting ("Is this piece of crap supposed to be a letter?")

As to hurting feelings, if done properly, you can get your idea across and help them to improve

I treat everyone like trash, including myself and at the top of the list.

Most don't, as i bash myself first

3)no. i criticize others more...bad habit. im self confidant with myself but i cant seem to stop critizing other people, behind their back

i always think others are critizing me when i see them talk with other people i always think they are saying something about me

Answer 10
