Do you find it harder to hold things in or let things out?

I find it harder to keep things inside. I am one of those who are not shy to tell you what I am thinking and you can always tell it on my face even if I don't tell you. You will be able to tell when I am happy, tell when I am mad, tell when I have alot on my mind. I wear my heart...and every other emotion on my sleeve so to speak. What about you?

Hello kymommy72 and how are you doing? Well me I like tolet it all out. If someone around says something I do not like I confront them on it but with caution becuase I would never want the situation to escalate. I mena why keep things bottled up and take them out on the person who did not have anything to do with ticking you off. My emotions are very important and if I hide them I feel like people will continue tohurt me and not know that they are doingit because I chose to remain queit as a mouse. So I feel like inorder to let people know that I can not be ran over is to confront the situation. That is why people say that I am very outspoken.

Hello kymommy72! Well when it comes to me, I find it hard to keep things inside as well. At times I do keep things inside though and then I let them build up until I finally explode on everybody. Like you kymommy72 I am not shy to say how I feel and what I feel but sometimes I hide what I feel especially when it comes to me and my man. I do this because he might say something that offends me in front of our friends and I do not want them noising in our business so I don't confront it at that time but later on I let in be known on how he made me feel. I do wear my heart on my sleeve as well but when it comes to private matters I'll wait to say how I feel but if I am pissed at the time you will definately know because I am going to let you know. Whether you like it or not because nine times out of ten you were in the wrong and completely disrespected and offened me. ~Nakita~

Well, i used to be one that wore my heart on my sleeve. I would tell you what i thought was wrong with any situation. Till it got me into trouble. I'm now the black sheep of the family because i am the only one who spoke what everyone else was thinking. my husbands brother has anger issues and there was an incident. I opened up my mouth about it and now i'm the black sheep. So i'm more reserved now, I just keep my opinions to myself.

I find it harder to hold things in. If something is bothering me, I need to talk to someone about it. If I don't, I start stressing about it and I can't get it off my mind. So, definitely, to hold things in...
