I am a very sensitive girl . I always bear a lot in my mind. I am very sensitive to other people' remarks about me so i am easily influenced by others. I know it is a bad habbit but i just can't change it . What about you ?

I'm pretty sensitive, although I think I hide it fairly well. I don't take criticism well - I think people are criticising me when they are perhaps just offering a suggestion.

That's how I try to see it too. But it is an effort.

I don't like critism either. But i will try to accept them although at the bottom of my heart i feel uncomfortable. I know that critics will help me improve.

It has taken me years to realise that being sensitive to other people's remarks will only damage our health and so I take such remarks in my stride and if they affect me and hamper my progress in any way I will deal with them sensibly.

I do agree that being too sensitive will harm your health. you are good that you can find a way to deal with it.

Hi there Chryslark! I can't really say. I think it depends upon the situation. When I know that I am doing the right thing, I am sensitive about other people's opinion. But when I am in doubt, when I am not confident enough that I was doing the right thing, then, that's where my being sensitive about what other people may think or say comes in.

HiI think what i need now is confidende. Once you have decided something you should be completely confident in your decision.

others always say what they want and they also care others' feeling.what you need to do is just neglect them and throw them away.

Please don't let other people have that much control over you. They don't know what it's like to live inside your skin. I don't care very much about what other people think about me. Their thoughts are not important. They are just thoughts, no better or more important than yours.

I'm exactly the same! I'm easily influenced though I do try to be stronger in the influence department... Because well... If I encounter a friend doing something illegal or harming... I wouldn't want to do it myself would I? And sensitive? Hell yeah. I take everything the wrong way. .. I try to take things from a different perspective...

Please try to look at things in another way. When i feel harmed by others' words or attitudes , i will comfort myself by saying that they r just words they mean nothing .

No, i admire you a lot . I think you got a tough character. I think people like you easily get success because you have firm belief.
