Uh... Just because your mother told you that you are an emotional person doesn't actually MAKE you one. It just makes you a person that ACTS emotional because you BELIEVE you are an emotional person.
What I mean is, MY mother told me at a very young age that I was a quiet and reserved person. Guess what? Indeed, I grew up acting quiet and reserved because I believed that I was a quiet and reserved person. After all, my mother told me that I was. As a child, my mother was NEVER wrong so what she said must be true! Right?

But is that really me? Am I REALLY a quiet and reserved person?

Heck no.

I just used to believe that I was that way so I acted accordingly...

I dunno. Does that make any sense to anyone here?

Don't tell me if it doesn't.

I like to feel like I'm being helpful here! Ok?
