Bottled up emotions are rarely what you wish they were

People tend to think people they love are bottling up emotions that they wish their loved one feels. The reality is easily the opposite; the person bottles up feelings they know they are “not allowed to feel” aka. negative stuff or stuff that would force them to alter their idea of who they are.

Mind you, if you act like you don’t want someone’s love (or sexual attention), don’t be surprised if they bottle up those emotions as a favor to you.

Also, you might think someone is “bottling up their emotions” when that emotion is simply not there. Just because they are not expressing a feeling you wish they had for you doesn’t mean they actually feel it for you. You maybe looking at a very empty bottle – or a bottle that is filled with something that you wish it wasn’t.
