Sensitivity


Question Posted Sunday December 24 2006, 11:10 pm

Do you think the reason people only dwell on comments that were made to them because the comments made to them is on the topics they are sensitive about and not on the ones they are NOT sensitive about.

Definitely. Why would someone be bothered bout something that doesn't bother them?

Like if you aren't fat, but people tell you you're fat, you wont dwell on it. You'll just forget the comment cos you're not bothered by your weight.

But if you're conscious bout let's say your nose, you'll deff care bout what everyone has to say bout your nose cos you're insecure bout it. And since you can't give yourself assurance, you turn to listening to the others for assurance or opinions.

i think people dwell on the things they are sensitive about because it makes them feel like they really do have something wrong with them in that area. if it's something they're NOT sensitive about, then why should they care what people think? ♥ megan

People will dwell on topics for many different reasons. some have to do with sensitivity to the subject, some because of mental disorder. why someone dwells on a comment is not as important as how long, or how often they dwell and whether this dwelling is interupting normal life activity.

If a person does what you describe, they need to see a professional counselor and be evaluated for any one of a number of problems.

Everybody does this to a small extent, but when it takes over your life, you have an obsession that needs to be handled professionally.

Please seek help.
