On the sleeves
Do you show your feelings? Or are you one to clamp up? When do you show it, when do you clamp it? I'm sure there's a little of both to everyone, just depending on the situation.
Explain.

Re: On the sleeves
Tend not to wear my heart on my sleeve. Only say I Love You when I mean it and only say it when I feel it. So, some see me as cold and unemotional but as some friends on here know, I am a good friend for life caring, supportive and loving.
So, I am both sides, can be emotional and also cold.

Re: On the sleeves
I am definately out there with my feelings. I learned long ago if you feel something you better say it, if you have a question about where you stand it is better to ask than to let it cause you turmoil. I tell my friends and my family I love them often. When I love I love deeply and I want that person to know. I never want to lose someone and not have them know how I feel about them.
I also find by asking questions and avoiding turmoil makes me a happier more adjusted person because anger isn't likely when you understand the other person's position.

I'd have to say I'm with cjroxy on this one although I do tend to bite my tongue if the time is inappropriate.

I truly agree with this...and when you ask the questions, be prepared to find the honest constructive critizism in there...it may be masked over by anger or resentment, but it will be in there. Sometimes you have to be the one to "put it in neutral".....to over ride sensitive hurt feelings and just listen to what's really going on.

Re: On the sleeves
My family are told all the time how much i love them and i tell my boys all the time.
My friends know how special they are to me and i will tell them so.
Anyone special in my life will have to prove themselves before they find out how i feel.

The thing I have found about processing my life this way is that there are far fewer misunderstandings and less anger to deal with. If you leave things unsaid and they are up for misinterpreted words then you can't necessarily blame the other for not communicating.
