Do you mind showing emotion in front of others? Does it make a difference if it’s family, friends, co-workers or strangers?
It depends on the emotion, in all honesty.
Some, I don't care who the witnesses are.
Others--.....ummm...yup.....CARE!!!
Others--.....ummm...yup.....CARE!!!
I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a gooshy person in general. Now, that doesn't mean I'm not a loving person--I'm assured I am.
I don't have an issue with being gooshy with the girl in public. I don't have an issue being gooshy with the bug in public. I do have an issue being gooshy with the Brit in public depending on the company surrounding me.
I know, I'm strange. *laughing*

There's a 'respectful' level of gooshiness in my book. Could be I have a strange book? Dunno....just feels 'across the line' in some social situations and in the company of some people. I'll undoubtedly want to figure out where those lines are and why I impose them in some situations and not in others. (I'm sorta like that....LOL....high need to know my own rules of engagement and what they're based off of....) But I think there's a respectful, acceptable level to several emotions depending on the company you're keeping and the circumstances you're in.
Could be that's incorrect and an assumption on my part......or a good excuse to not become emotional since I don't LIKE being an emotional creature. Loving is cool.........'emotional' is not.
*scratching head*
It's this 'feeling' jazz that I get hung up on time and time and time again.

Oh gosh....I feel a Barry Manillow song coming on...... LOL

Yeah, I'm sure we wouldn't hug each other even half as much as we do on these pages if we saw each other every day.
Like Ron, I'm also an Italian. I show emotion and wear them on my sleeves. When I talk, (with my hands and arms flailing), everyone can see them.
((((((((((((((((((Mel)))))))))))))))))))
Peace
I try to have disciplined emotions in public. I try to. But in reality I'm a big pushover. I cry at the drop of a hat. Happy sad, makes no difference. Hate it. Stuck with it. Oh well.
"But I think there's a respectful, acceptable level to several emotions depending on the company you're keeping and the circumstances you're in"
I think you hit the nail on the head there Mel.
