Why do we say we're ok whenever we get hurt? Is it because we're brave enough to handle the pain? OR is it the way of pretending we're fine eventhough we're totally broken?

i guess i do it because i feel like the person im talking to won't really care anyway, so why poor my heart and soul out just to get a cold response OR i just want to pretend that im happy and strong in order to make everyone else around me happy.

i think it's because we like to cover up the hurt that we are feeling but of course it's not okay at all when we get hurt. the best remedy that i can suggest when we get hurt is to talk to the person closest to your heart about it, it will somehow feel you better.
