I have come to realize that I totally suck and am aweful at expressing myself infront of someone or on the phone or whatever.
But if you give me a paper and tell me to write a 100 pages on how i feel, i promise you i will have those 100 pages.
I never knew this about me, throughout all this time I thought to myself im such an emotional and sensitive person then why can i not tell someone how i feel in real. and instead of letting them know on the phone or at the moment i would email them like this hugeeeeeeeee sermon
but yes i am very emotional and expressive, just can’t speak the words or the emotions. only can write it and type it.
no wonder i type too much
so what’s the best way you express your feelings? I know some people are awesome at just letting it out, and some ppl are just used to keeping it all in.
I cant even speak urdu in a proper manner when I talk to some one on the phone :(
but about expressing feelings, you have to show it all the time that you care/love them. Be kind and gentile and you can even say, that you really love them. :) Try it, it sounds hard, but once you have done it, it ll become easier :) and you will enjoy it just like the listener
phone / msn —> these mediums dont work for me when i wana say something…i get caught up in the moment n cant say anything or i get tongue tied…im basically an introvert
in person —> i think vibes/body language transmit it, theres no need for words…so thats ok…
email —> thats quite effective for me…but then again, how do i really know if the other person actually took it in the same way that i wrote it?
i wish there was a way to COMMUNICATE effectively and completely
but i cant … ok no more jokes…
i have same problem here ,its really hard for me to exspress my feelings to specially those i love .. i do write in my diary but cant share wid ppl …i think its girly problem …all of us have same problem …
My English Professor used to say when you write a different part of your brain is working than the part that you use for speech. He said, so only writing can improve writing because only when you write is when you actually use that part of the brain … perhaps that is the reason.
wow..it’s so good to know that we’re not alone in this..im the same way..its so sad that i have so much to say..and it could prolly make a difference to someone if i said it, but yet, i don’t, because i just can’t.
Before when i was young, i used to blur out anything that came in my mind while talking to the other person but as i grew older, i noticed people my age and older became more conservative in keeping their ideas and feelings within them. I wanted to go with the flow so i decided to be conservative as well :maulvidis
Express feelings the physical way - like if youre pissed - then take a gun to their head - or if they cannot be reached with a 40 foot pole then take a hammer and pound some rocks - it'll relax you. - if you are happy - jump around and plant a kiss if you can.
Paper and pen are so passe.
p.s. a heavy boxing bag really helps. (or a fast drive on my Fireblade)
Seems to be a universal phenomenon. I think I am sufferring from the same except with some I pour my heart out. I am not comfortable talking and expressing with all and sundry. Yes to a very few I am open with, I can just put in all I have inside. Some of them understand some dont. A very close friend of mine to whom I have shared almost anything I have had an issue in my life has turned out to be out of equation with me these days. Not that he hates me but we have difference of opinion on certain issue and you know what? At that particular moment when we were arguing I was just getting afraid what if he turns out to be my enemy? If he chooses to, he has all the bullets that I have provided him in the course of my sharing!
Should that be we remain in the chambers of our selves?
Aww, poor humans, they are caught in almost any matter. God save us.
everyone keeps blabbering here and never gets a chance to socialise cum lift their bottoms off the chairs The net is addictive I say. Studies have shown that people who spend more time online have less friends in the real world … it is true I say. sigh
