Do you Criticize?

I have to admit it I am a criticizer. I am a realist. I dont just walk up to people and rag on them. If they ask me, that's a different story. However there are certain situations that require criticism. Sometimes its better to be honest and hurt someones feelings rather than let a person make a damn fool of themselves. People are all about honesty until you get honest with them. I choose to live honestly. If that makes me a criticizer, then so be it. dl

There are two kinds of criticism, one is constructive and the other is destructive. I go for constructive criticism and it's what I usually use in telling others about their flaws, mistakes and shortcomings with the purpose of teaching them to grow for improvement. I also want to be criticized for my wrong actions or for anything unpleasant about me, but it should be done in a most proper and respectful way. I don't want to offend people as much as I don't want myself to feel the same way.

Hi pear, well i do criticize but not in the manner you are describing here, i actually do it to bring their mistakes to their notice, sometimes it is necessary, i do it politely, it is meant to be done that way too otherwise it might seem like we are doing it in our ego, and i only criticize people who are close to me, so that they don't make mistakes again, i just be friendly with them that way and i am so glad they are able to understand what i mean to say to them, even i am open to criticism from my close friends and family members, sometimes we get out of track and criticizing politely can be a method to bring back in to the track in a friendly manner... criticizing in ego is being rude to someone, i would be irritated if someone would do that to me to make me feel low.

I will never critisize anyone. No matter what the problem might be. I don't like to be critisized, so i won't do it to others. TATA.

I think I do this but only sparingly. I am not the type who criticizes everything and everybody. But I know someone who does this all the time. She has always something negative to say about something or someone. Come to think of it, she herself has a lot of flaws and lapses that we can say she has no right to be criticizing others as she herself is flawed.

I am a person who is fond of criticizing others. Yah I know at some point, it is really not good to criticize. But it is really hard to avoid especially when you became used with it. But everytime I criticize others, I also look at myself first to look if theres something that should also be criticized on me.

I think for many people if they are aware of the fact that they are doing it, then maybe there is a change for them to stop themselves especially if they are hurting people on a continuing basis. I think it is important to be think about what people may feel and respect people. If you want to be honest with someone I think there are positive ways of doing it without having to do it in some negative fashion.

I get critized all the time! All the time! For good reason's and not so good reason's! I still have trouble with being critized. Most of the time it is good critizem. Alot of times if it is good or bad I feel like I'm being yelled at! I still have insecurity issues! I do critize people at times. Most of the time it has to do with what is wrong with some people. Everybody critizes. Some people just do it to increase their ego and others do it in a good way.

Well, I do criticize people which are close to me and it's not to boost my ego it's for them to improve and be a better individual. I always give out constructive criticism and I always welcome criticism pointed against me.

I must admit! I do criticize at some point, whenever there are issues that I know is very disagreeable be it at work or at home, maybe we cannot really refrain from doing so because we are all brought up in very different ways, we have different sets of standards that we follow, different values that we adhere to, so with this diferrences, i think this will be a factor why we do criticize, if this were not in unison to our own standards. Right?!!

ya you r right i think that type of people have to be pationce. this is wrong because no body learn from his mother's stomech. i don't like criticize. compromising does't mean that you are wrong its mean that you value relationship much more than your ego.
