Congratulations on being told that you suck! You're probably not that bad, but you definitely need the guidance that family and friends can't really give you.
Can you ask that animator if he can give you an in-depth critique on your work? Find out where exactly you need to improve so you can tackle those areas. Having mentors is an absolutely wonderful thing and I was able to find several through the visual journalism Web site I became part of back in 2004. That really changed my career.
