So I was at work today talking with a girl and I mentioned that I was quite sensitive in the sense that I wish for a better world and that I get tears in my eyes when watching shows such as Extreme Makeover home edition and Secret Millionaire. She started laughing and said that that was one of the reasons why she broke up with her previous boyfriend. I have always been sensitive...I actually find it hard not to be with the way this world is and with all the people who are struggling. But anyway, my question...is it a turn off to girls if a guy is sensitive? Maybe not to ALL girls, but most?
Not at all for me (but of course I can't say I've had to deal with that). I'm quite sensitive myself so I can handle a little excess emotion in someone else. But less sensitive people tend to not be like that, they'd prefer not to deal with excess emotion.
Here's the thing I've found about sensitive guys -- they are very very sensitive for their own feelings, and you can take a bath in their tears with things that 'touch' them, but they have a kind of blindness for the actual feelings of those closest to them. In other words, their feelings count, yours, not so much!
Are you guys for real? He does not need medical intervention unless this is something he is experiencing that is sudden-onset.
Some people just have more empathy for others, there is nothing wrong with that.
OP...no it is NOT a turn-off. I find it endearing. Wouldn't bother me at all.
Agree.
OP, it is not a turn off. Sensitivity is only a turn off when you need the world to be nice to you.
However, to be sad for people who are going through hard times or to be happy for people during good times is a very good social skill. Not everyone possess it.
