In what way? Overly emotional or complaining too often?

I'm both. Well, in the real world, I don't complain very much at all, most of the time. Because often I don't feel my opinion matters. But with close friends, I bitch quite a lot. Which makes me feel like a whiny, angsty attention whore, even when my complaints are perfectly valid. As for overly emotional, I'd almost go as far as to say I'm bipolar, except that, as a hypochondriac, I'm aware self-diagnosis on such things is a stupid idea, and offensive to people who are. That said, I often yo-yo between super happy and crushingly depressed in a matter of days.

I understand you perfectly. I'm very open about my thoughts and concerns, and I believe them to typically be reasonable and well-deserved. But even still, I've recently decided to simply be more reserved, even though I'd rather not be. Those close to me usually only get annoyed with my complaints and criticisms, and girls certainly won't find it attractive. It took me awhile to realize what a bitch I was emotionally, but I decided to change that about myself. It's great for a man to be in touch with and considerate of his emotions, but he shouldn't be overly expressive of his emotions. I personally think it's bullshit that a man should have to disguise or be less expressive of his emotions, but I realize that it's simply how it is. Basically, be upset, but don't cry; be happy, but don't jump for joy; be angry, but don't break things. Others will respect you more for it, and you'll eventually respect yourself more for it as well.
