My best friend and I were working on a project together for school and she criticized my drawings. She asked to see my drawing. I told her no and she reached for it and looked at it. I tried to make paisleys which I did my best on. She was like, “Layla (me) what is this? This is pathetic! Extremely pathetic! Nobody is going to be interested in our project with this crappy drawing. This is junk!”
I was shocked when she said that. I was hurt and said, “B..but I did my best.” And she shot back and said, “It isn’t good enough! You didn’t wanna show me because you can’t handle criticism. Try it again.”
I said, “Well you didn’t have to be rude.”
Then she said, “Well I’m being honest. It’s called constructive criticism. You gotta learn to take harsh criticism.”
Do you think she was mean or honest? This was last year. My best friend can be rude sometimes.
@AutismGirl18 Honestly she was a little mean about it but maybe she felt you can do better. Does that make sense?

That wasn't constructive criticism, she was putting you down. I'd have asked her, "Well, if you can do better, have at it!" And shoved her the pad and pencil..😒😔🤗🤗
