I used to always cry when I was a kid, when people says bad things about me. I was a sensitive girl but I got sick feeling so weak and so now, I am not that sensitive anymore. I can control myself from crying and I show that I am not sensitive anymore. I can relate to you because my mother used to always make me cry too.

When i was young i was sentimental and sensitive but as i grew older slowly i started becoming immune to these emotions.when i came on the path of spirituality i became controlled in my emotions and could withstand the buffets of life. Now nothing fazes me, neither good fortune nor bad fortune, good luck or ill luck. Now there is a feeling of sameness ineverything. I never despair or give way to depression and i always keep my equilibrium in everything.

I'm also sensitive and when someone makes me angry especially my family. If they hurt my feelings or they scolded me I easily cry.

yes, I am very sensitive, I cry very easily, sometimes I cry in front of the person who hurt me. I really can not hold back tears. especially when having a lot of sadness, I could cry all day. This month I cry almost every day because my husband's treatment. I am very easy to cry, sometimes I do not want to cry in front of the person who hurt me. but I can not hold back the tears came out.

Hi,there.I think I am a rather sensitive person.Even a little thing will make me cry.Sometimes I heard some bd on me,I will surely cry but I will do this in place without others.I hate others see my tears.But maybe I am luckier than you,my mon never down me when I am cring,and she will comfort me and tell me that I should be more strong.But I just feel that my tears drop down without limitation.

I am one of those people if the sensitivity is extreme. Any gesture, how finely impress me, be it positive or negative. That's why I quit a few years to watch the news. I do not like to be sociable, not because I mizantroapa who knows how sophisticated, but because the people you meet on the street, in stations, on trains all have life stories, and stories are sad people. I pray for all that I see needy for a few moments at least, empathize with them. The world is a miserable place. I would like to help each with something, but they are so helpless and I myself may like them, I hope someday someone to come and save me. But besides the more humane sensibility, brought me and how I can not reproach me laments the fate of all mankind, that life belongs to the powerful, not idealists like me, they are hypocritical, because I like to victimize, and in conclusion it would I have to change. I can not do that. I can not wear other clothes or put my hat and be automatically another. If you close your eyes and hope in my heart that something exists, does not mean that when you reopen will be gone. But I would like to be my sensitivity was given with a specific purpose and to help me in my turn, I help others. For a life worth living for others and not just for ourselves.

Dear friend, I hope I am sensitive, may those things which I do care to hear and take seriously makes me more emmotionally touched. Moreover if that is of from my close and loved ones. But I hardly cry unless it is very seriously effecting my emmotions.

i cry at sad films and when i'm hurt by someone emotionally. But its good, crying relieves stress and its natural. And you will stand on your own two feet just work hard and focus on the end result

I'm pretty sensitive when it comes to what people say and their actions toward me. If someone wrongs me in any way, I often think more about it than I should. On the other hand, compared to all the women I've ever seen or met, I cry the least. I have a high tolerance against both emotional and physical pain, and I'm like a man in the respect that I simply don't cry often. None of my friends have seen me cry, even my best friend, who I have known since kindergarten. My husband has seen me cry, but in select few occasions. I'm all for men crying. I find it highly unattractive for anyone to be what I call "inhuman"...a man who never cries creeps me out. That's why the high sensitivity of my husband is a huge turn on. As for me, however, I hate to appear weakened despite my beliefs on crying or response to emotions. If something bothers me, I might think about it a lot and eventually talk about it with my husband to figure out how to let it rest. As for your mom, I wish you the best of luck with dealing with her careless words. You are your own person, not a carbon copy of your mom, so as long as you're happy with your life your mother should be grateful. If not, then it's her that needs to work on her life, not you.

Hi Nice, I am quite sensitive as well, but also hugely protective of myself so I tend to end up crying more out of anger than sadness. Mostly I get annoyed at the state of things in my life and I cry because of that. I don't know many people so it is hard for them to make me cry. Probably the last person to do so was my brother's girlfriend who would yell at me if I did anything slightly damaging to him, even if I didn't mean to do it or know about it. She did the same to my mum as well and she got upset too, which upsets me but not enough to cry. Mostly though it is anger. I expel my anger through tears because it saves me breaking things which I hate doing ~ Sighs ~ I am not sure if being easily angered is a sign of being sensitive though. I think it probably is because I am able to be hurt enough to be roused, but I am not sure. I do count myself as sensitive though, sensitive with a hard outer shell for protection I hope you are able to show your mum you are independent in the future and get out of her shadow ~ Hugs ~ All the best, Dranz

I don't think your mother intentionally wants to hurt you.Its just maybe because she knows how smart you are and she thinks you can do better than what you are doing at the present. Landing on a good job doesn't always requires intelligence.I think all u need is self-confidence and convince the interviewer that you are a smart person and is one also that can easily adapt to new ideas. It's okay to be sensitive.I guess we all are.And we should express our feelings in the best way that we can. (^_^)

Hi there nice, yes i am emotionally sensitive also. Getting worst when i am bearing a child. Every time when i will not see him by my side or even if there are things that i want to do and he just ignore it i felt alone and easily cried. I do not know why, maybe of the condition i have for now. Sometimes, i just cried alone when there are little problems in the family, i know i can fix it but it just happen. I am too emotional of my feelings

Actually I'm also sensitive to. I do cry when I'm online or when I regret stuff from the past or things that have happened. It's an on and off thing sometimes. At times I feel happy and okay but at times when alone or just a thought, i would cry or feel upset about stuff i didn't like about myself during the past. I think people that i've dealt with, can't stand sensitive people and cry babies. I always get the term - she's so sensitive and she's a cry baby. I'm not a person with a bold personality or like the other peers of mine. It just sucks that i feel I'm weak but oh well. I feel the same way you feel. It's interesting to have something in common with someone who is like me - sensitive. lol.

I am not emotionally sensitive, maybe because I got stronger and numb a bit with life's experiences plus hormonal thing! However, as to other meaning of sensitivity, I am very sensitive towards the feelings of others. I don't want to hurt and disrespect others. As for your case with your mother, please do your best to stand on your own feet and get better job for yourself not to prove to your mother at all. The best way to resolve that conflict with your mother, is to face her with confidence, and always think logically, don't be beaten up my emotions, it wouldn't help. (just an advice)

I am sensitive but, being a guy, I let out my tears when I am alone. I cried when my girl friend who I was dating for several months just left me. It was horrible.
