Since this is off topic I assume this is the right place to put it, I am only doing this basically so that if I say something in the future that doesn't make sense, this should very easily explain why.
When I was a little baby I had no emotions, yes I cried when I was hungry but that was more of a pain reaction than an emotion of sorts. My grandparents, whom I live with, had no idea why and had a lot of different tests and what not. Now when I was 16, around that I think, I was asked out for the first time in my life. So through this relationship I started experiencing these things known as emotions. I am 18 now, so only 2 years of emotions, and I still do not understand them or can control them what so ever.
This basically means that if I have emotions they are to the extreme, if you are talking to me with heavy emotion I wont understand it and if I get hit with too many emotions (From you or from me) I will be overwhelmed and basically either just be frozen or panic.
Hopefully this can help you understand me a little more, thanks.

Wow Rhain, I wouldn't have thought that someone who has such strong emotion now had no emotion at all just 3 years ago.

hm, this is interesting. You must try to feel them with a calmness at first, then you can advance to the "Higher Ground".

Very interesting Rhain! You have now inspired me to take Psychology when I grow older. BTW that is not a joke.

Man I wish everything was simple. But in the end its all complicated in different ways. Though, it is better than having something complicated then having something again and again.

Hey, dont worry about it. I used to be the opposite, overly emotional. I would, admittedly, cry over little shiz all the time. Although the emotion does come out periodically (usually on purpose to express a point), I've learned to be more calm and logical in arguments and such. It just takes time to get used to your own personal reactions. If something happens, whether it be IRL or in game, just take a step back, take a deep breath, and if needed go do something else. In fact, Video Games helped me a lot, since they're my escape. If some bad -Censored- happened with friends or family or school or anything, I just go onto a game and relax (though I do not recommend competitive games at those times, because sometimes you'll just end up making yourself more mad XD)

No call of duty or anything at that time?

Call of Duty is actually one the most frustrating games I have ever played.
