I don’t like being asked to express my emotions

I’m the type of person who prefers to deal with my feelings on my own. I don’t need to be constantly prompted to open up or share everything I’m going through. I know how to work through things in my own way, and I’m comfortable with that.

What I wish is that the people who love me could understand this about me. I don’t need anyone to try to fix me or push me to talk if I’m not ready. I just need them to trust that I’ll express myself when the time is right, in my own way.

If you're someone who feels the same, I get it. Sometimes, silence and solitude are exactly what we need to figure things out.
