Broadly speaking it doesn't bother me whether someone expresses their emotions more readily than others, several of my friends are like this although I myself am more reserved. When it has bothered me is the few occasions when someone has used emotional displays to manipulate others, but that is quite separate from being just a more readily emotional person.

You have a point there. That's good that emotional people don't really bother you with their emotions. It sucks to be emotional at times. I wish that I could control my emotions more and not get as easily upset and anxious about things as often as I do. I can't deal with stress well sometimes. I get easily overwhelmed. I try to control myself, but I can't always control my reactions to stress and how easily hurt I can get if someone is rude or mean to me.
