Well, of course I don't give a heck when others are being rude to me! But even a tiny little thing is enough to get me totally depressed when my Master is being tired and growly, shooing me away to rest peacefully... Or anything similar...

Are you an extremely sensitive person too?

It depends on who it is, and what they are saying.

I use to think that I was not sensitive at all - but I've found that's not true - I am a little sensitive.

I'm more sensitive than I'd like to be.

Yes. It usually affects me in a very negative way, but I've come to learn that it has its perks as well. I feel like I experience happy times much more deeply!

At times I can be. I do get hurt easily at times. Wish I didn't. For the most part I don't let things get to me but certain things really upset me that I really shouldn't be upset about. Ugh. Most of the time I don't let it show. I think being sensitive is a good thing at times though, because it shows that your a compassionate person who is understanding.

Generally, I'm not. But if it has to do with my girlfriend or close friend, I am.

Very much so. I take things very hard, and I take a lot of things personal. It doesn't help that I've had an extremely hard life, not that there aren't other people who have, I just don't deal with it well.

I used to be. When you grow up with a bipolar mother and an alcoholic stepfather you learn to compartmentalize. They are both good people and I love them a lot. Their respective problems made living with them a nightmare often enough that I had to learn to deal with it.

Very much so, but most people won't see or know that. It will depend on who has offended me. I tend to become aggressive if it's come from a stranger.

Over the last couple years I've grown thicker skin slowly but I am still super sensitive. Sometimes I can brush it off, other times I can get really hurt and depressed. I'm in the beginning stages of my first relationship and my poor boyfriend is still trying to figure out my moods.

Just a bit, only about certain things.

I find myself to be in between answers. I am a little more than a bit sensitive, but I don't find myself being not extreme, but very much.

I used to be more sensitive than I am now. I didn't realize (until recently) that other people can't upset me, it's my thoughts and beliefs about what other people do and say that upset me. Now, through CBT and REBT, I'm learning tools (along with my man) to manage my thoughts, beliefs and reactions so I don't cause myself so much upset over things I can't change. It's really helped a LOT and made a huge difference in my quality of life!

I am SUPER sensitive. One of my SOs says he loves that about me because it means I just feel things strongly, and am a very empathetic and sympathetic person. XD That made me feel a little better about it.

I am very over-sensitive with people who matter to me. As far as strangers or people who I don't care about not really.

I can sympathize. My parents were equally as dysfunctional - but in different ways. But as you said, you love them and learn to cope.

Oddly I learned as much from parents about what what not to do - as what to do. It also motivated me to look around for better roll models. I was lucky to have great grandparents who although they were very 'old fashioned' were able to shoe me how to respect your partner and foster loving relationships.
