It is true a word of appreciation or compliment can send me soaring but a negative comment is an attack on my tendermost part.

"Actions don’t always speak louder than words. If this is your love language, unsolicited compliments mean the world to you. Hearing the words, “I love you,” are important—hearing the reasons behind that love sends your spirits skyward. Insults can leave you shattered and are not easily forgotten. " from the book

This is so very true in every aspect for me!
