Why am I so uncomfortable with showing emotion?

Maybe that was it for you, it's easy to hurt a kids heart, only you can guess if that made an impact on you (but if you ask me, that's awful to make fun of a kid who has a great and intelectual hobby! I was totally your way, rather reading and writing than playing nintendo, never had one in fact, in my house there were books). I don't write journals but I write about my eventual feelings to my bf or my best friends (only 2 of them, both in the other countries). I don't call them because words would stuck in my throat, I prefer to text. And we are fine that way :) You'll be fine too! With my bf I am veeeeery slowly making progress because to vocalize things as we love to have long discussions when we meet...maybe it's also about finding a proper person who will be able to break that insecurity :)
