Yes, they always do...
As I am quite an emotional person where I cried a lot, I'm easily pleased, happy.
My emotions are quite obvious on my face and in my actions.
My family would tend to joke around if they realised I may be angry. My siblings would prepare tissues if I am about to cry, especially due to a touching scene on television...
Most people would leave me alone when I am stressed especially at work.
I have friends who finds that watching a movie is a lot more interesting when I am around. = That is because I have a lot of reaction when I watch movies. I tend to get absorb by the story and even the story is really bad, I can still cry at touching and sad scenes, even the happy, surprising ones too...
When I do recall them, it is quite funny at most times..
So I want to know whether fellow mylotters here, does your emotions affect people around you? Is it good or bad for you?
Do you laugh/smile afterwards at what has been done?

NOpe, not for me though.. I tend to control or hide my emotions well, unless i really want someone to know about it.. Especially when i'm sad, i tend to hide it as i wont wanna affect others around me, and let them be sad along with me..
BUt when i'm angry, i will definitely show it, so as to let them know, not to provoke me at that particular time.. ALso, it helps me to cool down even faster if i'm able to vent it out..
BUt when i'm happy, i'll tend to spread it to others because i will rather see people happy rather than sad.. haha =D

That is nice of you to control your emotions when you are sad. It would be hard for me as I usually cry when I am sad.. Not easy to hide tears... haha.. I sure wouldn't want to provoke you when you are angry...
I guess you are in a happy mood now?
Thanks for sharing...

Yup, pretty logical enough...
But in my case, it is easier said than done... I guess i have lots to change and get used to... I often blame it on time, there is always not enough time to do a lot of things and venting my frustrations elsewhere..
I know it is because i am pretty bad in time management..
anyway, thanks for sharing.

haha.. Tears does not mean that one is sad, and being happy does not mean that one should laugh as well ^_^ It depends alot on how well our frenz understands us.. haha =D
Well, it's always better to vent your your anger whenever u can, and dun hold it for too long.. Because once u reached your limit, u are gonna unleash it on the wrong person, and after which, u are bound to feel guilty ^_^
As for now, i'm not happy, but sleepy.. lol =D

I always try to be happy, and my friends and family say that is what they love about me. I am often asked out in a group, and if I can't go, people say, 'Oh, it won't be the same without you there!' The downside to this is, we all have bad days, including me. On the rare occasions when I really can't face the world with a smile, people keep asking what's the matter, and saying it's not like me to be so quiet, which is really annoying!

You always try to be happy? Are you not happy?
You must be a fun and happy person to have around, otherwise your friends won't miss you when you are not there?
So on that rare occasions, do you do something to make yourself feel better? Or you just ignore/avoid people?
Anyway, thanks for sharing! =

Yes, I am nearly always happy - I don't think I phrased that too well! On the odd occasions when I am fed up, I try to avoid people for a few hours. If I can't avoid people, I'm just honest and say something like 'I'm not very good company right now, but it will soon pass.'

i did let my sad emotions affect people around me, i think why should they suffer sadness & unpleasant when are they are happy when i be sad. I think affecting bad my emotions ins not good. I think if i can not take pleasure of living of be happy why others people around me take punish of it.
I mostly suppressed my sadness, angry & unhappy from people around if the situation is out my control i go away to a lonely places where other people may not be affected by my emotion. I do not know i am doing good or bad by doing this ???

I suppose there are 2 side to the coin...
When you do not want to affect the others with your bad mood and you go away to some place where others won't be affected, it is good to a certain amount... Because you are being considerate, but i am sure you have friends who cared. They won't mind how your mood may affect them as they want to care and help too...
Easier said then done, I am still learning to let my friends help and care for me... I am used to keeping to myself and not affecting the others... Afterall, that is the easiest action to take.
Anyway, thanks for sharing. Take care and have a great day ahead!
