5 Signs for Spotting the Emotionally Sensitive Person

By M.Farouk Radwan, MSc.

Over sensitivity

Some people are more sensitive to criticism and to negative comments than others. Emotional sensitivity is a very common trait but it always remains one of the private secrets that the person never tells anybody about. As a result of keeping the secret to themselves those sensitive people are usually hurt by others who never notice that they are dealing with sensitive people.

The aim of this article is to help you improve your communication skills by helping you spot the sensitive people you are dealing with in your everyday life so that you can avoid hurting them.

Sings Of Over Sensitivity

  • Face Features: You can spot a sensitive person just by looking at his face features. He will usually have delicate face features like a tiny chin and thin eye brows. Sensitive people usually have wide eyes too. These conclusions are based on face reading visit the link in case you want to know more about it. Note that the presence of the tiny features assert the presence of emotional sensitivity but the absence of the features does not mean that the person is not sensitive
  • Body Shape: If the person’s body type is Ectomorph then he is over sensitive. The Ectomorph body type is characterized by small muscles, slim limbs and lighter bones. For more information on body types check out the body types article
  • Staying in the Comfort Zone: we all hate change and we all like stability but sometimes we have to step out of our comfort zones in order to achieve our goals. When a person stays in his comfort zone forever then this usually means that the person is oversensitive. The over sensitivity of that person makes him unable to tolerate the emotional turbulence associated with change
  • Avoiding physical activities: Over sensitive people are peace lovers, they don’t like to exert much physical efforts and they hate fights. They prefer to do any other peaceful activity rather than being involved in a violent sport or a fight.
  • Being unable to tolerate criticism: Everyone dislikes critics but for an over sensitive person a single critical comment could make him sad for days. When you notice that a person gets hurt by any small critical comment then know that most probably he is over sensitive

Over Sensitivity Is Not bad

Over sensitivity is not bad at all because the over sensitive person possesses some traits that other people don’t have.

The over sensitive person has got a powerful ability to sense the feelings of others and their emotions. For example in case you had a crush on someone the first person to notice this will be the over sensitive because of his high level of empathy.

Over sensitivity makes the person kind and more understanding so if you are an over sensitive person then don’t be upset and just enjoy your positive qualities.
