Cheers,

I don't doubt the validity of your sentence, but I'm just frightened about the thought. Between the lines, it seems that you are saying that those people have high expectations, which, when combined with internal insecurity, is likely to give anyone a hard time.

I think that it would actually be easier to deliver a speech in front of an indifferent audience. Torturing people who don't care for you (or people who wish you to fail) makes you feel less bad than torturing people who wish you well.

Sorry for the negative post, SS
