Today I was given constructive criticism. It was given in an encouraging and kind way but I still felt shakey, my tongue went numb, and I later cried. The criticism was about how I tend to observe conflict instead of intervening. This "freezing" up is something that I have hated about myself for some time. It's so difficult for me and I feel like a boy more than I do a man. Having someone else point it out though just made me feel the full weight of my shame. My instincts what me to just "run", but I know I need to work on this. Despite a lot of growth in assertiveness, this still feels insurmountable

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
