I agree with what has been said. I personally try to give feedback in the form of my own experience—then in some ways I am saying “hey, I’ve done it too” or something like that. I think it takes the sting off. I also try to say that is just my experience because everybody is different. If there is something real serious and I can’t say it in a “nice” way, I send the person a PM. I don’t send them a mean email—I express my concern and caring in a more private setting.

Hang in there happyflowergirl. Just posting this thread shows you care and you want to be supportive to others. I respect you for that. The more you post, the easier it will come to you. Keep posting. I look forward to learning more about you.
