Poll: Do you hide or show your emotions? if you hide them, why do you do it?!
Question: ?
Answers: ?
Both.
I will not hide the fact that I'm laughing or crying watching a movie (I never forget to bring my tissues). As long as my emotions are a normal response, I don't mind other people seeing them.
In fact, I so much allow myself to cry when I see something sad on tv or in a movie theater that I cannot hold it in real life. I'm a fountain of tears at funerals!
I can barely watch the news on tv!
Now, some emotions, I will hide. Like if I'm depressed or have a pain somewhere, but have to go to a party, you will see me all happy and smiling. I'm just pretending as to not spoil the party for anybody else, thinking sometimes that maybe everybody else is also depressed and everybody is still smiling!
Sometimes, I see a personal good friend of mine who's going through hell and still she's smiling and laughing at the party!
On one hand, I want people to be genuine but on the other hand, I don't. Because then, it would be a really depressing world indeed with only two kinds of happy people...the ones who just fell in love (won't last) and the ones who are happy drunks.
I show them. People say I'm an open book and my eyes are very expressive. Sometimes I think it's a curse. I don't think I could hide things if I tried.
I try to hide them but I'm not very good at it. Sometimes I just don't want people to know how I'm feeling.
I never hide my emotions I want everyone else to suffer right along with me.
i mostly hide my sadness and depression from people, because if i didn't i would have everyone asking me what was wrong and other things like that, i especially hide it from my parents cuz they don't help much.
I hide my emotions. I don't want people to have to worry about me.
I'll show my happy emotions though.
I show my emotions*
hide sometimes( most of the time) because i dont really like showing emotion to people (they shouldnt really need to know my emotions really
I hide my emotions only if i feel like crying, i dont want to cry in front of people
I wish I could, what I am thinking shows on my face (emotions). I would like to because (for example) if I am given a gift I don't care for, I would like for the person who gave it to me not to know I don't like it. But it shows on my face.
I try to hide them. Unless they are happy feelings.
I hide my emotions all the time.
I am really not fine , I just always pretend I am
I act crazy funny and weird all the time but there's just so much I wanna let out of myself
I hide em..... wish I knew why.
