Criticism

[annundriel]

I just need to articulate this or it is going to drive me crazy forever.

I don't mind constructive criticism. In fact, I welcome it. How else can improvements be made? But sometimes the "constructive" part gets left out and all that's there is criticism, which feels a lot like judgment, which leaves me feeling lacking and horrible. And I hate that. It fucks with my emotions for days because I can't just let things go and I end up second-guessing myself all the time.

If I don't say nice things when I'm being nitpicky, it's your job to call me out and verbally bitchslap me. I'll even let you visualize it in your head.

I didn't mean to kill your schmoop buzz the other night.

I'm sorry, I was going to write something about how I don't mind schmoopy and it came out as Snoopy. The theme to Charlie Brown and Snoopy refuses to leave now and thus:

Feel free to let John and Rodney get all schmoopy.
They'll save the planet then cuddle at the movies.
Rodney will smile, clothes will melt in a pile
And back at home John might make them breakfast once they spoon for a while.

I luff you.

Well, I don't need to be coddled and I don't want to bitchslap anybody. I just also don't want to feel like what I do is a waste of time.

Schmoopy Snoopy. Nice.
