Why do guys not show emotion?
guys don't show emotion because they think that it will make them look weak. It's like we expect them to be buff and stong...and they just accept that. Now, they think it is thei responsibilitie to hold all their emotions in.
Why don't men show their emotions like women?
Along with everything else said, which I agree with...I know that I hardly express my emotions that strongly because, in the past, women see that and take advantage of it. Which is the same thing men do to women. As men, we have to maintain a certain image, in order to get respect we feel is needed. If we were to cry every time we fought, then nothing would ever be resolved. Which is why women and men are completely different. And I think that, though women complain about men not showing there feelings enough, it draws them in, attracting them, due to their differences.
Why cant Leo men show their emotions ??
You need to read up on Leo traits..A true leo is that way and don't mistake thinking he doesn't care,,he does but in a Leo's way..A Leo is suppose to be the strong one,,the protector,,,the provider....The "Lion" is the head of the pride,,he will bend over backwards to provide for you, do for you and defend you,,but for him to show emotions is to show weakness in his eyes. Thats why he says that just the way he is,,but Leo's are very loyal and demand the same,,like the cat stroke the fur the right way and he'll purr for you,,stroke it the wrong way and look out..Leo's also like attention and if treated right will never stray,,they are somewhat of a flirt but its all in fun and a jealous person is not the one to be with a Leo. Leo's give loyality, dependability, reliaibility and truthfulness and expect the same from their partner. Cross a Leo,,lie to him or step out and its over,,no ifs,,ands, or buts. To betray a Leo or really injure his pride is to lose him forever as Leos' never forget and rarely forgive such behavior from one they gave their love to..Leo's are good people but it takes a strong and open minded person to understand them.....Good luck...
Why can't I express or show my emotions?
It's destroying my life. I'm female by the way, so no it's not because I'm a guy and guys cant express their feelings. Because i'm not a guy. Anyways, whenever someone opens up to me, no matter how important it is, I cannot comfort them. For example, my father opened up to me about his alcoholism and explained how much he feels like a failure and he hates himself, and he cried. And all I could do was sit there and listen. I didn't cry. I didn't make a face. I didn't say anything. It's not that I don't care about him or feel empathetic, it's that I cant ever bring myself to help people. it's taken a huge toll on my relationship with my s.o too. He says he doesn't feel like I love him anymore, and I'm so distant and I never express any love for him. I love him a lot but I cant express it anymore. sometimes I can say a simple "i love you" but I cant go on and on about how great me makes me feel like he does to me. Another time, he was feeling very bad , and it was my fault, and I never helped him, and he actually ended up hurting himself. He hasn't done that before, and yet I STILL couldn't bring myself to help him. Whatever is wrong with me, its making me feel terrible. is there a technical term for this? and again, its not that I lack empathy, its that I cant express any emotion. so is there anyone out there that knows about this and can tell me what the heck is going on with me and how I could possibly fix it? or maybe at least someone who can relate?
I don't show emotion well..what's wrong with me?
It's hard to get a full feel of who you are with such limited information, but i'll try: 1. you fear others' of judgment of your feelings 2. you're not that emotional to begin with. this is not a bad thing, but especially unusual for a women (i'd say). still, it'd be just a part of your personality. i tend to be very much a 'thinker' rather than a 'feeler' myself. 3. you don't understand other people's emotions very well, and you find it hard to connect with them on an emotional level. if you cant form an emotional bond with someone else, of course you wouldn't share your emotions with them. 4. you could just be shy. there's nothing wrong with that. 5. you just don't truly trust people. many people build a wall around themselves when it comes to emotions. i'm guilty of this myself, in the past, but i've gotten over it; not for any reason in particular. this is something you need to work on, if you have trust issues.
Why don't some people express their emotions?
There are many reasons but they all boil down to two main points.First, most people don't understand their own feelings well enough to articulately express them, let alone their underlying causes. This ends up being something that can take years of professional help if it is to be dealt with although there are a number of self help books that some people have had success with. It's also why we need to encourage our children to practice expressing their feelings when they're youngThe second reason is one of vulnerability. Talking to somebody about your feelings leaves you vulnerable to them. Not only are you bearing your soul, you are also giving this person clues as to how to trigger or manipulate your feelings in the future. Although somebody may intellectually trust you, that doesn't mean they are currently emotionally ready or able to trust anybody. This is a subconscious, instinctive reaction, not a rational one and has no bearing on you, personally. It's something that eventually has to be just dealt with (on your part) or worked through (on theirs).
