Being Emotional.. Is It Good Or Bad??

I agree with you..I'm a very emotional person too..there are situations where we have to be practical but I can never understand how one can be emotional in relationships. But over the years it has affected me a lot and have been hurt so many times ..have lost a few relationships because of this as well.
What I have learnt is to accept the hard reality..even though it hurts not to show in front of people. I have a few friends to whom I vent all my frustrations and disappointments..it goes a long way....

 

Dear I m emotional too.. I have learnt and know it's never good thing to be emotional n if ppl know that u r they take hell lot of advantage of that.. so learn to be strong or atleast show.. I show I m strong but one case I don't that's completely different story

 

It is not good. I am emotional only when I am with my family. I will not cry in public or around unknown people.

It comes from childhood, trying to get the attention by crying?

If I cry, my DH would leave the spot, wouldn't say a single word. He will step back into the room when he feels that the coast is clear It is the first line of defense mechanism by knowing cannot win the argument or especially, if I made the mistake?

 

After marriage being emotional is bad.
Be practical and cunning .Then you can be happy

 

Husbands do not like over emotional wives...try not to cry in front of him, he will never understand your pain. Its not that they are bad or insensitive its just that they are wired differently. Knowing this fact and keeping this in mind will definitely help you in dealing with husband(as in not to expect a shoulder from him to cry). Thats where your besties come into picture. Open your heart to a close friend and get rid off all negative feelings.

 

As someone here said, cry in privacy. It is not good to hold your emotions, at the same time, showing emotions will allow people to take advantage of you if they are the bad types. Just go to some place where no one can see you and cry/laugh to your heart's content. It is not just about showing emotions, don't express your fears to anyone in general. Try to address them yourselves as much as you can. Nowadays women are being forced to behave like men, we can't express too much especially after marriage or else things can turn worse. So be careful while showing your emotions.

 

Being emotional and having emotional quotient are a bit different. Everyone gets emotional when they feel they are losing control. I have become emotional after I got weak and I see the hardest of bullies getting emotional when they feel cornered. These people are strong to the point of scoring over others, but when they think the other person is putting them down and has a valid point, they start sympathizing themselves and looking for justifications for their bad behavior. Having emotional quotient on the other hand is a different thing, it is the capacity of a person to empathize with other people given their situation - like if they are unable to perform properly due to some personal issues, giving them some slack instead of giving them a lecture telling them that are not the only ones to have issues. I am emotional but have no EQ, but I am trying to change that. Having high EQ is not that easy, it requires great strength and being less emotional.

 

You nailed it .
