Do you consider yourself sensitive/strong?

[PaulBron 173]

I'm 10% sensitive, but i'm not very strong, my psychological is a little weird

[Messy Mane 9,006]

I'd like to believe i'm not sensitive but everyone has a soft side to them.I just try my best not to show it,on the other hand I don't consider myself physically strong.The most I can lift with my two arms is probably anything less than 60 pounds.

I am definitely on the sensitive side.  I have a stoic demeanor, and I definitely have some strengths, but not the kind that society usually values.  I have certain kinds of courage, but usually not the kinds that are typically admired.  I don't handle hardship or discomfort very well.  I have problems, including clinical depression and autism, and I go to pieces if something really bad happens.  I've long felt like this world often judges human worth and character based on one's ability to endure hardship without letting it show.  The more one can suffer while continuing to smile and keep a stiff upper lip, the better and more valuable of a person they are.  That's the vibe I've always gotten, and makes me feel very down about myself, because I'm not that kind of person.  I was a whiner and a complainer as a child (yes, both.  I know they are different things.  Thank you, Rarity.)  I grew out of that, but I still don't endure hardship and suffering very well.  Adversity causes a downward spiraling vortex of destruction in my whole being.  Self-esteem, confidence and mood plummet.  If one's worth is truly measured in the ability to suffer with grace, then I am worthless.

But I try to look at the silver lining--with those problems comes the good kind of sensitivity.  I'm extremely kind, gentle, compassionate, etc.  I'm sensitive to other people's feelings, which has always made me feel like I might be well suited for a romantic relationship, though I've never gotten the chance to try.

I’d say I’m sensitive on one hand but strong on another. I’m not to much of neither. I’m kind of a happy medium between the both.

I understand. Same here.

I consider myself strong emotionally and mentally, but unfortunately not physically. I am not sure how sensitive I really am- it does seem that people are easily ejected from my life for small mistakes, but I'm not sure if that's more due to me being sensitive or just spending too much time outside of my social comfort zone. I know the kinds of people I get along with, so it's always the kinds I don't get along with that I seem to have issues with. Unfortunately those kinds of people are plentiful these days.

I used to be very sensitive, but thankfully I've toughened up over the years!

There really isn't anything wrong with being sensitive, though. 

[Bastian 13,319]

As a kid I was sensitive but know I am stronger. Guess I grew up.

[Kadae 655]

I'mma little soft boi.

[Lucky Bolt 34,914]

Honestly, I can be both. 

[Splashee 28,537]

I have learned to now show weakness. But I am quite sensitive and caring to the people close to me.

[Clawdeen 12,109]

I can be both. It all depends on the circumstances

[ExplosionMare 18,007]

I’m pretty sensitive but there’s times where I can find strength when it’s needed

[Tom Gallagher 33,521]

I can be very sensitive. 

[Rainbow Cloud 16,147]

I am more sensitive than I probably often appear but I'm pretty good at hiding it, I don't know if I seem more strong though because of this.

I can be kinda sensitive towards things, characters, and people I care about.

 

I can sometimes be pretty strong though.

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 40,237]

Both but in radically different ways. For the most part, I do consider myself to be quite the softy, sensitive in many ways but I am autistic so that shouldn't be a surprise. Emotionally and self esteem-wise, I am extremely sensitive, a lot of things can hit me in a bad way and give my mood a punch in the face. So I try my best to avoid those situations. A lot can make me sad as well. What am I strong with? Passion and standing up for what I feel is right. I will stand my ground against certain groups of people (my profile says what groups those are) and my passion shines through my overall weak mental shielding and poor mental health.

[Cash In 21,493]

I'm strong now, but that's only because I've been put in so many situations that have basically forced me to be that way. Right now, I'm not in a position to let myself be sensitive, but I know that one day, things will make their way through the cracks.

Physically? Strong. Temperamentally? Mostly strong, but am sensitive when it comes to a select few things - someone I care about or love, for example.
