Do you wear your heart on your shirt?

[Shanks 10,816]

I tend to be extremely blunt and that does often carry into my more emotional moments though most of the time when it comes to haters I just ignore them and move on but can lose my temper every now and then. The only time I keep things bottle inside is when I am at work, seriously if work retail you absolutely have to learn to speak bullshit at least somewhat fluently. When I put on that uniform I cease to be myself and put on the mask of being the loyal employee who is willing to take whatever abuse the same company which threw him under the bus then dusted him off and jammed a knife right into his back until he can implement his exit strategy and get out of the god forsaken hellhole once and for all.

[Just A Guy 39]

Depending on who I'm with...
If I know the person, i'll be silly and stuff...
If I don't know them... I tend to be very shy, trying to being friendly, but SHY...

[Virulence 254]

If someone were to insult me, I would be shy about and bottle it up. If they continue to insult me, that's when I say "Back off". If it's done once, I ignore it, but numerous times, then no... It's on!

[TailsIsNotAlone 3,695]

No, I don't wear my heart on my sleeve at all. I hide my emotions very carefully in person. I mean, I can trust you guys with my feelings and opinions, but that's because you're not right in front of me. It's a lot easier, somehow.

[Moon Rat 4,772]

Honestly, I do tend to hide my feelings sometimes however I will try to be as honest as possible without being too crude

 

There are sometimes when I know what I want to say however, I can't seem to think about how to say it right so I just don't reply at all...

 

No, I don't wear my heart on my sleeve at all. I hide my emotions very carefully in person. I mean, I can trust you guys with my feelings and opinions, but that's because you're not right in front of me. It's a lot easier, somehow.

This here too,

Honestly, I am too frightened to express myself out in the open but here on the internet, it really isn't that hard

[Lunas Husband 2,777]

Sometimes I keep it to myself.. like if its a close friend or someone I love a great deal... 

 

but if its someone I don't even know I really don't care.. I'll tell them how it is.

[Delernil 952]

I can't. I can't even express myself on the Internet for fear of being teased/ridiculed/insulted etc

[Scootalove 10,689]

Usually I don't hide my emotions, unless I don't want to talk about them. So, yeah.

[Cimarronboy 248]

to answer; I'd cut my heart out but I'd wreck too many sleeves. One of my fav quotes when I wanna make others laugh

[SomariFeyWright 776]

I'm the absolute worst at keeping my feelings to myself. Am I feminine? Absolutely. Do I enjoy sports or being active? Not at all. Is my favorite cartoon a show made for little girls? Duh.

 

I have very few secrets and none of my personality is kept hidden. I let people know who I am and what I believe in. Because I'm not afraid of being ridiculed or disliked. Truth be told, I prefer a little criticism here and there.

 

... Though, I do keep things to myself sometimes, but rarely. Everyone does to some degree, wouldn't you say?

[Harmonic Revelations 8,836]

No because I wear my shirt on my chest, not inside of it.

[ChoroChii 284]

It's not that I'm dishonest about my feelings, I just don't mention them, especially when feeling down. I usually just tough it out until I get over whatever is troubling me, unless if it's something I should talk about, then I talk to my boyfriend about it.

 

I generally don't like talking to others about my emotions, especially my negative ones.

[Finish Line 1]

I'm a crazy-big introvert when it comes to showing things like that. It takes an awfully large amount of comfort that I have to build with the person I'm with before I can actually share my thoughts and emotions with them. But, when that happens, I do tend to show them openly. It's also a privilege that people can get taken away much faster than they gain it. It could take several months before I show them, and I can cloister myself from them in the span of a few moments. 

 

Shorter version: I do with people I'm comfortable with.

Something was here. Something was here. Something was here.

If I know the person well, then yes I am very open about my feelings, opinions, and thoughts. But if I don't know the person that well or if I'm in a group, then I can kind of be an unintentionally closed off person. It's not that I don't want to show my emotions, it's just that I clam up and get nervous in situations I'm not comfortable with or used to. 

[Katana 298]

You know that guy who's always depressing and moody, every day of every week, every time you go out to lunch together they see everything as blackness, and have never smiled once in the time you've known them?

 

No, you don't. Because if you HAVE ever known someone like that, you avoid them like the plague. (Depression is kinda contagious)

 

So, no, I tend to have a lot of sour feelings but I find it best to never show them whatsoever. In a lot of ways, it's best for everyone.

[Celtore 2,770]

I've become a lot better with being open with others, but I'm not entirely honest with some of my emotions. I bottle up my anger and get rid of it when I'm alone because I don't want to cause any damage. There are some things that flip my lid on the spot though, such as cruelty, bullying and jaw-dropping idiocy.

 

I also try my best to avoid debates on "religious issues" unless it's warranted. (for example: emacs vs vi, or python vs lua)

[The Leafeon Pinkeh 3,603]

XD I don't even know. I guess both. I'm like double personalities. Sometimes I'll be completely expressive and sometimes I'll just pretend like I'm happy. Better not to worry people, right? If someone says something that makes me mad I'll usually quietly try to say something against them but no one ever hears me or listens to what I have to say, if I say something at all. There are some things I will get onto people about. If someone talks about hurting an animal and they're being serious I will make them KNOW they better not. *takes a few seconds to calm down* Yeah I love animals :3 There are other things that make me mad that I'm less likely to speak up about, though.
I guess I still need to get the whole concept of "putting your hoof down" xD

Oh long paragraph! o:

[Side Bird 566]

So-So.

I can be honest, and tell people how I feel. Other times I can shut myself and nnot tell anyone anything.

I'm mostly open. I don't go over dramatic or anything, but I usually tell people how I feel. If anyone says anything mean, or stupid, I usually don't sit back. Sometimes when I'm really depressed though, I don't want to talk to anyone and I kinda bottle myself up.

[MagicalStarRain 599]

I try to keep my feelings locked up in public, even around friends and family(at least when there's strangers around).  In private and on the Internet though, I feel free to express them as much as I want.  You can say that I'm ice to the public and sugar to the Internet and those I'm close to.

[FatalRain 108]

To the extent that it tends to get me into trouble or hurt

I think it also annoys people for whatever reason

And I often wish that I was able to change myself and be more...mysterious, I suppose 

[Away 2,077]

I usually keep my negative feelings bottled up inside, both online and in real life. It's because I'm afraid of receiving negative attention or even no attention at all for it. I could tell someone if I'm feeling down or whatever, but if I only get backlash for it, I'd just end up feeling worse. Same goes for being ignored or neglected. Imagine spilling out your honest feelings to someone, only to be see that they don't even give a damn. What's the point of expressing yourself if no one even cares to listen in the first place?

I go through shirts like I go through beers, so I just wear whatever I have at the time, give it a week and their will be a big hole in it!

[Ribbonfree 2,383]

It's a combination of keeping them bottled up and being awkward as a result of it, and being candid about exactly how I feel when people ask me. I think the style has something to do with my inherent fear of being a waste of space and burden to others, so I've pseudo optimized the way I respond to people so that they can ignore my problems if they don't want to deal with them, but get them easily if they do want to deal with them.

[Huntress 94]

I'm only a closed book to people I don't know. But my best friends or my sister/ brother (not blood related haha) I'm a very open book and usually very emotional...very emotional.
