yay Petite!

A “grown up” response to criticism does not involve automatically doing what the person providing the criticism suggests. I’m going to join the ranks who say It’s Petite’s blog, if you don’t like it, don’t read it.

There, I feel better now.

I stopped reading at comment 60 something, these are far too long… just one thing Petite: I know how it feels to be criticized for one’s writings for I (and others too) have experimented that almost daily for more than a year…I know it is tough to take “distance” (le recul necessaire) not to let you touched by that in any way. I still haven’t mastered that by the way. So I dunno if it could be of any help but just be sure criticism is “le lot commun de tous les blogeurs”.

Keep on going you are doing a great job (and I personnally loved this post).

I thought you might be open with people who were more than acquaintances. I should have specified people you knew vs. strangers.

I love your blog, but I am not a pom-pom (dirty pink or otherwise) waving kind of gal. I never did quite fit in with the cheerleading crowd.

Elle – with some people, yes, I suppose I am. Not with everyone though.

Although having just read that back to myself, I begin to think they may have a point…

I join the sighing brigade.

You know, someone accused me of navel gazing the other day. Said i couldn’t stop talking about myself for two minutes.

petite, I enjoy your blog because 1) you are an excellent writer; 2) you write about topics that interest me, particularly those that are about relationships; 3) your introspection inspires me to do the same; and 4) I enjoy your observations.

People are often superficial these days, so I find your openness in blogging very refreshing. Are you this way in person?

The only thing I can say is if I came across Tess and Cheria’s moralising guff elsewhere on the internet I would never return, whereas Petite’s consistently powerful, thoughtful writing keeps me impatient for each new post.

Silence, green-eyed monsters!
