Sure. Very little really matters, especially not words! I never understood why people care so much about what other people can say, why give them the power to rattle your cage?

If you answered yes, what would be your advice to others struggling with this issue and how did you resolve it?
Just find some perspective. If someone says something mean, it's either probably in response to some offense you might have given without realising, or they're just a crappy person whose opinions are all bitter anyway. Either way, in about seven-ten hours you'll be comfy in bed anyway, words won't change that.

Quote:
What is a give-away to you that someone else does not have a thick skin?
Apart from obvious stuff, like taking offense at every little thing? Probably being constantly bitchy with no need, it's probably a defense mechanism.
