Surpression....

Do Virgo's tend to surpress thier feelings/emotions? Being a Pisces I know I'm capable of doing so and can be a bit of a curse to be honest! Just cutious....

sorry "curious"

Yeah, we do 😢 it's why we're regarded by most as "unemotional" or "cold".
I can't speak for the others, but I know my reason for doing it is fear of being vulnerable; I'd rather be the stonefaced bi.tch whose heart is protected than the inconsolable crying chick who wore her heart on her sleeve.

From my experience YES! Never ever let it show. It must take superhero strength to do that. I just don't understand how it is possible.

it's the feeling of vulnerability I can identify with...I personally find it hard to trust others with my feelings/emotions it makes me feel exposed and it drives me freaking nuts sometimes! The closest friend I have and one I've had the deepest connection with ever, also a work colleague for just under 2 years came out and told me and half the town we were in at the time that he loved me with every fibre of his body! heavy, I know! and wanted to be with me. I was like woah wtf, to cut a story short I didn't reciprocate there and then, I know this hurt him and now he says the book is closed and wants his best friend back! The sad part to this is I love that guy, he a virgo, I'm sure the book is closed on that side for him or he gonna surpress again hmmm like me! I want to tell him how I feel cos I feel I owe it to us both regardless of nothing happening in the future I respect his guts and honesty knowing how hard it must have been for him. So why the hell can't I ? It comes back to vulnerability..sorry that was a vent and not meant to happen lol

They just express themselves differently than others... read some of the other posts, it's in their actions not their words!

I surpress everything I can. Because people take advantage.

Everything I can't surpress [Anger, Lust] brings out a different me.

But we all know you're a sweetheart Cajun!!! 🙂

Cajun, if you had let your surpressed feelings (hypothetical, I know!)for a friend come out and you took her shocked silence as non-reciprocation, but you still wanted the close friendship, would you appreciate even if too late in your book for anything more her telling you how she really felt?...I am still in shock and find showing my feelings extremely hard, but my silence hurt him and if it might help I'll grow a set and tell him....

This. 100% .

I'm so f'n sick and tired of people trying to take advantage of me. I'd rather just be a cold-hearted bit.ch who gets left the f alone by EVERYONE to tell you the truth. But I meet people here and there I think I can soften up around, and BAM! Another person trying to take advantage. Ugh.

I don\'t repress my emotions, i just can\'t make sense of them. When I am in a rush people say that i am being cranky or rude, but i think i am not. When I hang out with people, they usually say i\'m too happy, but i just think i am myself. When i am not talking and i\'m just wondering about random ideas, people think i\'m being depressed...

I don\'t wear my emotions on my sleeve nor repress them, but I have been able to constructively choose which emotion to release with whatever situation that is happening, but as i come to think about this situations i often wonder if i am acting upon emotion just to satisfy that person or am i truly feeling them on an emotional basis, so i tend to wonder that far too often...

I need to be told how a woman feels. If she doesn't reciprocate, then it just hurts and I begin to quarantine emotions for her. Eradication is the next step.

Being shocked is fine, maintaining silence is not.

K thanks Cajun, think you made your point and it's on board x

I suppress negative feelings.

While its uncomfortable for me to freely express vocally I find it easy and fulfilling to filter emotion into the things I do or touch.

I'm usually very aware of when someone is taking advantage of me so thats not my issue with expressing.

I just get embarrassed. A self awareness issue.
