Is Uneasiness And Not Wanting To Talk About One’s Own Feelings Abnormal Behavior?

i have problems with emotions. being in a situation where im asked to open up or tell me how you feel just makes me feel uneasy and obligated. i hate talking about love and how i feel. ill share opinions all day long but talking about how much i love someone or what im feeling just makes me wanna puke. whats wrong with me. and why is it so hard for people to understand thats just not who i am. ive never been one to talk about my feelings

Hi,

Every person has a different personality. I do not see any abnormality in what you are explaining. Every person has specific areas of interest they like to share knowledge about. Talking about feelings is just not one of yours and there is nothing wrong with it.

I am sorry but you have not mentioned your gender here. Males usually feel hard to explain their feelings and talk about love and care as women do. They have different way of SHOWING their love and care rather than TALKING about it. Even if you are a female, you might have your choice of topics to talk about.

However, sometimes it becomes difficult to be in a relationship if you feel totally disinclined to talk about your feelings as your partner might want to share his/her feelings and expect the same from you. In that case, you can be little flexible and start sharing some of the feelings, if not all feelings or not all the time. Incorporating a small compliment in your routine conversations with someone you are close to, like, "I care for you", or about some small thing you like about that person can make difference in your relations with the person and can make it easy for you to be in social circles.

In any case, you do not have emotional problems as you are ready to talk about things that interest you all day long. It is just something you are not used to do and making small efforts can make life in social circles easier for you.

I hope this answer helps. Thank you for choosing HealthCareMagic. Take care.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
