I personally love getting opinions from non-musicians about the riffs and songs i write, and if i want to get deeply involved with talking about the technical side of it, i can always do that with some of the musicians i know.

As a musician myself, and one half of the primary riff writers for my band, i tend to be something of a perfectionist about my riffs, but at the end of the day i always tell myself theres no point in changing a riff just because its a little cliche if it sounds good.

I find most of the time, if the finished piece sounds awesome, then both musicians and non musicians appreciate it for what it is, rather then picking it apart.
