if you are hurting emotionally, what is your usual reaction? would you publicly say the reason and wait for sympathy? would that make you feel good? or would you just sulk in a corner and cry your heart out? ann

hello yugasini, we all probably would not want to hurt the people very close to us that's why we remain cool and sober but i guess there are some situations when we cannot just hold back some words and then when it is out.. we realize we have hurt someone unnecessarily.. thank you for this response. ann

I am the person that will usually find someone that I feel comfortable talking to and we will try to talk through it. Of course, I will also end up crying my eyes out, but I feel a whole lot better when I am able to talk about those things that bother me and also to feel comfortable talking to someone about the things that bother me the most. If I am to hold things in, then I am not at all a happy person to be around.

dear dora, you get relief talking about a problem and that is very good. holding things in is very stressful. thank you for your response. ann

Yes, I must react to such hurting with strong counter action! Because a person hurting emoyionally tries to become such a source always. Unless counter acted, the person never shuts up hurting! Thanks for this nice disussion Lita!!

dear mitraa, usually, the emotional pain strikes deep and creates profound grief for a time and dealing with it begins only when you start coping with the sense of loss and with your acceptance. have a nice day. ann

It depends on the type of hurting. There are different types of emotional hurtings. If I feel somebody hurts me and I feel they repeat the same to me, then I will tell it directly on the person's face. If I feel hurt emotionally by a person who is close to me and I know that it happens very rarely, then I may not feel like telling it directly.

dear daliaj, it is best for the person who have hurt you to know what you felt. guess that would help him realize if he did right or if he got it wrong in hurting you. thank you for this response. ann

Hello Anny dear I am a very sensitive person i get hurt emotionally very often, specially when my wife says hard words, but later i try to analyze the situaion, many times the over-sensitivity is the cause.. There is no use to tell about this publically, many times crying out alome or on lap of the sweetest person drains out all sadness.. am i right... Thanks for sharing. Welcome always. Cheers.

dearest professor, they say that the very sensitive person is the sweetest person because he can easily grasp emotion of another. it just hurts the most when the person who you think cannot hurt you is the reason why you are miserable. words cut like blade. could even ruin a wonderful friendship. but when you love someone who have hurt you, you always find your heart forgiving and willing to reconcile. crying is the best outlet, be it a man or a woman, to pour out the stress within oneself. and it is beautiful to have someone you can lean on, someone who you can talk to and who would listen intently when you are down and hurt. thank you for your response. ann

When i get emotionally hurt then i stay quite and weep silently. I don't talk to anyone around me. But once i cried badly on hilly open place until i get relief. After that i had sleep. Its hurt if somebody hurt me emotionally...

dear westbird, i too prefer to weep silently away from everyone. but there are just times when we are not fast enough to hide our feelings. we all know that crying is very good outlet when you are hurting. but i know it could give you a headache as well. cheers, ann

Hi ann, sorry for being so tardy here, but my myLot has been so slow, I get tired of waiting and often log off. I haven't experienced much emotional pain recently, but in the past I would talk it over with my two dogs. They were very understanding, and good listeners. Mike.

hi mike, hey, that's not far from my experience. only a dog listens to me while i weep. sometimes she comes near, like she understands what is happening and puts her nose near my face like saying "stop crying now. you'll get very big eye bags the next day if you dont. not glamorous at all". cheers, ann

I hide until I can come to grips with my emotion and be back in control. I hate not being in control of myself and I hate to cry, it gives me a terrible headache. Emotional pain is some of the hardest to let go of, it doesn't respond to logic and often only time will heal it enough to live with it.

hi pat, crying really makes headaches and to add, bloated eyelids and bigger eye bags. but i guess after a really good cry, your head gets clearer and you are able to face the day with a more sober thinking on what to do next. have a nice day. ann

Hello Tigeraunt. When I'm hurting I like to deal with it myself so I try not to seek sympathy. I just let time take it's course because time is always a good healer :)
