While it can be a good thing, it can be a downright shit time. I am similar myself. For me, I can't do relationships because I become so sensitive I can become damn near psychotic. As you'll read, you'll understand why I stay away from people, hermit myself. It creates a whole host of unwanted issues and pain for the girl. I can love and enjoy like no other, but I can also bring your world down around you like no other. As you've said, it can make a person a bit intune with others, and when I say bring your world down, I can find your insecurities and rain em down on you.

That is the issue with being overly sensitive. You can be the greatest of people to be around, or the shittiest of people to be around. I'm a 0 or 100, whatever it is I'm feeling. If I'm happy, I'm damn near manic. If I'm angry, I'm raining tears trying to keep from being homicidal angry. if I'm depressed, I damn near catatonic. If i like you, you'll feel more loved than ever. If I'm hating, you'll feel like the worst person on the planet.

OP may be different, but what they say emotionally complicated people is partially true. When Im up, you're on top of the world too and put you in a state of nirvana sexually. When I'm down, you're dragged into the pits of hell with me. Which is what gets people in cycles of confusion. "He's not always like this."

You want a man in touch with his emotions/ not afraid of them, not a man who is overly sensitive. Overly sensitive means 0 to 100 with a very sensitive trigger and it can be a chaotic ride.

I know my issue may be more severe than OP, but it is very difficult to keep the positives of it, and get rid of the negatives. You end up dulling the positives when you try to dull the negatives. If OP is at all similar, then I can understand the sheer volume of the issue he faces.
