I think they are very good and honest people and this type of people are very good in creative type of work. like in drawing,music,writing etc. But one major problem with this kind of people is they are very sensitive and get easily hurt for a small reason.what do you think friends? do you like this kind of people and are you a emotionally sensitive people?

Hi friends, I do really know how much it cost to be a emotionally sensitive person, because I am a sort of it. It's not very bad at all as you both have said that much. We, emotional people can easilly be attached to other's emotions. This helps us to be more compassionate towards others and we often be reffered as helpful persons as we all know. This is the reward of being emotionally sensitive. We are already aware of the negative effect of this. Aren't we? If someone hurts us, it make us feel really pathetic. But as we all know good thing comes with some negative effect too.

Being sensitive in any area is a bit of a bug bear, I would say I am very sensitive, in a lot of areas, emorionally even towards other people in a way I get extremely hurt at other peoples hurt even animals which means I am taking on a big load with many things i can do nothing about...there is a lot of tears there so sometimes I wish I wasn't sensitive at all.
