    Insensitive vs sensitive
    Why are there people who are so sensitive with a simple situation while others are so insensitive?

    Hi jomabaab,

    I think a lot is to do with the genes your are born with.

    Also the family you are born into, how they raise you, how they deal with different situations in life.

    When you're a child you learn from your parents, mimicking their behaviour, as you become an individual in your own right, you make your own decisions, deciding what is right or wrong for you.

    Most children inherit various genes from their parents, it can be some from the mother and some from the father, or it can be mainly one or the other.
    How many times have you heard people say... he/she is just like her Dad/Mum.

    My son for instance is more like me soft and sensitve to others, where as my daughter is almost the opposite,covering up her sensitive side taking the stance of.. thats life deal with it,.

    We are all originals

    Like the person above me said, its basically the way an individual has been brought up. Its what they think is good and bad, etc etc.

    If you are all wrapped up in yourself, you're going to be more sensitive... if you become more involved with other people and life, you start to lose your sensitivity rather quickly.

    Don't be the least bit concerned what other people think about you... you can't control what other people think!
