Do you wear your heart on your sleeve?

my heart is in my pocket. i wear my sex life on my sleeve.

A-Dog, 19
McMinnville
, OR  USA

I don't wear my heart on my sleeve. I generally have my sleeves rolled up so they don't get in my way.

Jill, 61

Not usually.

Laura, 37
Lowell

Probably.

I've heard a this expression used in a few different ways so I'm not entirely sure what it's supposed to mean. Do I know what I believe and why I believe it? Yes. Do I go out of my way to be vocal about everything? No.

Alias Irrelevante

I try not to. I don't believe the general public needs or wants to know my feelings.

Jane, 62
West Linn
, OR   USA

I try not to. Usually I succeed.

Judy, 61

absolutely. every emotion is right there for the world to see....

Maggie, 22
Sandwich
, IL   USA

I believe I do...most of the time.

I have been told many times that I wear my heart on my sleeve. This means that my emotions are very close to the surface; that I cry easily, laugh easily, and get angry easily. It also means I get my feelings hurt easily. But I wouldn't change a thing. I like to think it also means that I really get pleasure out of things and am not afraid to show my happiness, and that I tend to be enthusiastic. I'm not a 'cold fish' and I like it that way.

Reba, 50+
Silver Spring
, MD   USA

Not at all.

Felicia, 36
Lowell
, MA   USA

yes and no. you can always easily tell what mood i am in, but i will rarely open up about my true inner feelings.

Steve, 29
Lake Worth
, FL  USA

It depends on the situation, but probably more often than not, I do.  Especially when it comes to disappointment or sadness. Those emotions I have trouble keeping inside.

Triana, 29
Austin
, TX   USA

Always, unfortunately.

Sapphire, 31
Ft. Lauderdale
, FL  USA

i used to but not anymore

Patty

I use to wear my heart on my sleeve. But I have outgrown that.

Laney
TX  USA

When it comes to certain things, yes. My son, for one.  In general, though, I try my hardest not to.

Nicci, 27
Las Vegas
, NV   USA

Probably more often than I should. I've allowed myself to be hurt and get burned, but I knew I'd learn from it and grow from it. I never changed and it has paid off as I've met the perfect woman for me and will be married in a little over a month.

Doug2, 29
Overland Park
, KS  USA

Used to but not anymore...

Christina
MI  USA

well that is what my family says

Alesha, 15
NJ  USA

It depends on whom I'm arround, but most of the time I'm pretty guarded.

Keri-Jade, 21
Brampton, Ontario  CANADA

Nope.

Angela, 18
Bella Vista
, AR  USA

More often than not, yes.

Ryan, 28
Riedlingen  GERMANY

absolutely. It usually gets me in trouble though

Nicole2, 20
FL  USA

Nah. Not really. I don't really hide it, either. I just keep it fairly accessible but not obvious--in my pocket or something. Where I can take it out quickly if I need it.

Johanna, 18
OK  USA

I think so. You can usually tell how I feel or if I am upset by just looking at me.

Janet, 44
E. Brunswick
, NJ  USA

No. At least I dont think so
