Thoughts about my own writing and the inadequate nature of peer critique.

I've been sending fiction pieces out to publishers because it's something to do. I don't care how many rejection letters I receive. I don't trust the opinions of my peers when it comes to critical feedback. But, something that has happened to me twice already (and might continue to happen?) is that publishers, though unwilling to accept my work, return it with helpful criticism and feedback which, before, I could only get from a professor. These are people who are already in the industry as opposed to a group of my peers who are still writing stories about goblins and elves and vampires and anime fan fiction. The fact that I have no "literary" friends means that I'm forced to milk feedback from prospective publishers based on the fact that my work is "unique" but not necessarily publishable (yet). Is this a bad thing to do? To reject the opinions of people because I somehow feel that my writing is "above" theirs in terms of literary quality? It sounds incredibly elitist and snobbish, but I honestly feel that I am in a different league than the majority of my peers and need to find writers who can read my work and provide feedback within the context of work that transcends the sort of 'DeviantArt" writing that many people I know seem to indulge in. To be fair, I may hold my writing in too high esteem for my own good, but socially, I am a total fuckup. I sometimes feel that I am a big fish swimming in a pond filled with krill. Usually writers emerge from obscurity and become well known by the time they reach their thirties or forties. I just need to find a vehicle for getting my writing into the hands of people who would appreciate it and whose heads it wouldn't wash over.
