I am confuse, what're you trying to point out here?

You want to be around people who are emotionally matured; that could control their emotions instead of being unstabled?

Emotional intelligence (EI) is the capability of individuals to recognize their own emotions and those of others, discern between different feelings and label them appropriately, use emotional information to guide thinking and behavior, and manage and/or adjust emotions to adapt to environments or achieve one's goals

People aware of emotional information. But then also the moral quality of using this for good and not bad. Caring ...along with the skill 🙂 And emotionally mature too 🙂

I hope i am not bragging ..but it's like I feel I have a lot of this. And i feel others around me are blind. Or one on one they end up crying over my shoulder ....

I do have some peeps i would consider have a high EQ but I would like to befriend more.

Hopefully you'll find a way to gain that?

Yeah. I think I felt responsible for a lot of people previously. I tended to encounter a lot of people going through crisis and find myself in the caring mode.

I found myself a beacon for the emotionally blind. I am not bragging it's true.

Well, it's not easy. High EQ people usually loner and not open to everyone. Just because you may be one, doesn't mean others keen for your company. Altough those people are giver and sharing they also very fussy whom they let close.

They are very good in reading and monitoring others.

Not easy to spot, usually quiet because observant, still easily engaging to anyone. Sensitive and responsive. Will surprise you in conversation

I think they get surprised when they realize that with little words you can get to the deepest part of the conversation.

Yes, also they testing how deep they can go in conversation. Can get bored of casual topics, not interested in How's the weather and what did you eat yesterday.

I have emotional intelligence and it has helped me and others out heaps, I’m always breaking up fights and helping resolve conflicts and comforting people during the worst times by giving them clarity.

Mind you having said that I have very little emotional management skills and I have anger issues that get triggered when I’m stressed and cornered because I get very claustrophobic in heated situations.

Anger issues have many reasons. I think, You feel cornered but stressed because you see the outcome of situations and you know that is not you, whom not let it resolve it. That is most probably the reason you respond that way.

Oh it’s from bottling my feelings up a lot when I was in my 20s, when I lash out and go crazy I get this overwhelming, alienating feeling and I feel scared afterwards, it’s the flight or fight response and it’s really hard to manage those types of feelings for me because I hate talking about that shit to people, I’m not ashamed about a lot of things and I’m quite transparent but when it comes to that shit my natural reaction is to bottle it up.

Luckily it only comes out when I’m literally cornered and have no where to run to like if I’m in a car or in a room where someone is blocking the exit.
