But I feel like I just have different kinds of sensitivity. As far as people being mean or saying hurtful things I can pretty much just shrug it off (unless it's a person of authority (like my boss) personally insulting me) but relationships are fine in general. But I have huge problems with change and death and loss. Even people who I don't know. Heath Ledger died years ago but I can't watch his movies. I just feel so weird about death. I can't comprehend it. Also any sort of animal abuse or child abuse or murder just bothers me so strongly. Sometimes just for an hour or so and sometimes and just cry and cry about things I can't change. And I realize they don't directly affect my everyday life and maybe I shouldn't care so much but I just can't help it. Nobody cares about anything these days and it's really hard for me to care so much. But I am so sensitive that I can't help. I can't volunteer at an animal shelter or homeless shelter, I would cry the whole time. I want to help make things better but I am too sensitive to actually do anything.... Sometimes I like being sensitive. Being able to read people's feelings and to be a good listener and really appreciate the beauty of everything around me. But I also cry during most movies at some point and my family just rolls their eyes but I get attached to things and ideas and when they aren't there anymore or something shifts I almost can't process it...

I also am a sensitive. It causes me great heartache in my personal life. I am always accused of not having a sense of humor or that I "can't take a joke!" I wish that I sometimes could just let the things people say roll right off of me but I truly feel every bit of their sharp tounges. My boyfriend says that I am way too sensitive. Everytime he is trying to joke around with me my feelings always seem to get hurt. He enjoys my sensitivity when he feels how much I love him but struggles with me in other areas. How can I become more well rounded and know when is the time to be insensitive? I think we would be perfect for each other if I could get over always feeling sensitive when he is just being playful. Also thanks for the inspiring thoughts. I never really knew that other people felt like me! :0) Heather Hello. I also am a sensitive. It causes me great heartache in my personal life.

It is nice to see sensitivity recognized as a gift rather than a flaw in character. My sensitivity makes my a great empathizer, but also causes problems in my relationship with my long-term boyfriend. I tend to think I am the cause of all frustration, hurt and worry that he experiences and I create a toxic environment when I get reactive. I usually end up reacting in a way that causes confusion for both of us and leaves me apologizing and continuing the cycle. It really has to be exhausting for him and I love him more than my actions (and reactions) suggest. I am a very confident person in all other aspects of my life. I am proud of my abilities at work, and in a male-dominated industry I can hold my own and enjoy every minute of it! I take that philosophy wherever I go, except home. When I can infuse that into my relationship, nothing will be able to stop me! :) I may start a little journal to record my thoughts and happenings, and I think it will give me something else to do rather than get upset and worried. Also it may show patterns of behavior. I recognize what I am doing, but I find it very difficult to put the wheels of change in motion! Wish my luck and thanks for that great Mother Teresa quote!
