*soft laugh* the approval of those close to our heart tends to be of particular importance. i do not imagine in the least that you're the only person to have felt such :)
i know that i can be fairly blunt - i do try to be honest but never cruel. what you're now requesting is what i think i always did by default, and my reason for mentioning what i did was so that you might keep it in mind and not accidentally repeat it. it can be difficult to tell people things when their response is one we don't like.
my thought that this might work better with people who see you in person was only that it can be much harder to hide things in person than over sporadic electronic communication. this becomes especially true with people whom you see regularly.
i don't mean any of this to come across as a suggestion that you not pursue this or that it isn't a good idea :). only that for it to be beneficial, you must be aware of the inherent pitfalls.
