DH embarrassed by my sensitivity

[MarysLittleLamb]

I get very moved by certain types of art and music, so much so that I occasionally cry. Last year we went to the Louvre and I ended up silently weeping at a number of art works. When we got out of the gallery DH admitted that he finds it all a bit over the top and unnecessary - as if I do it on purpose!

Anyway we've just got back from Rome. I became a little overwhelmed in the coliseum when I thought about the violence and death that had taken place there. DH said I was the only one in the entire place crying and he was fed up with it. I explained that I don't do it on purpose, it just gets to me.

We went to the Sistine Chappell the day after and I ended up screaming at the MichaelAngelo. A number of tourists tried to console me but DH just walked off muttering "for fucks sake". I felt so stupid. When we got out DH had a massive rant at me about how I spoil everything for him and he often wishes he was with someone normal who could visit places without making a scene. He also declared that he no longer enjoys travelling with me. I'm gutted because travel is the main thing we do together. AIBU to think I can't change who I am or should I??

I actually laughed out loud at this post. I wouldn't travel with you either (Im sure your lovely though).

I've got swollen glanfs in my.neck that ate extremely.painful but I literally have not stopped giggling to myself. It was the one liner
.
I screamed at the michealangelo

This has had me laughing out loud which I very much needed thanks OP!
It has to be a Classic!

I feel inspired to make the myself feel more when I visit art.

I think mn should organise feeling art flash mob over London.. Feel, reveal, don't judge your feelings..

I'd love that! A shrieking flashmob.

Fuck me shakeyourcaboose I’ve not gone from giggling with laughter to sad tears so quickly!! wipes more tears and blows nose on sleeve

I advance searched OP hoping to find other threads she has started / posted on - but, alas, this is the only one.

< screams at OP >

Well, of course. It's been pretty brilliant trolling, don't you think?

Oh shakeyourcaboose that makes me want to watch The Land Before Time. I may wail at it though ...

Oh yes - was just hoping she might have trolled on other threads

Bloody comedy gold! Seriously though, get a grip!

I luffs her, I want her to come back and share the sensitivity.

We'd all be caring and concerned and meaningful and wail in unison.

The most I can muster today is that the cat vomited on the hardwood flooring and I am steeling myself to clear it up, it's a delicate operation involving lots of toilet roll. I feel very sensitive about it (but haven't wailed as yet).

Damn cats. No opera here to console me. Nor Michelangelo.

Your poor husband
I wouldn't go anywhere with you
? seperate holidays perhaps

You sound like my mother. I can no longer go to historical sites, the cinema, theatre or art galleries with her. It isn't that it's just embarassing, it's that it is totally unnecessary. Learn to bloody control yourself. You sound very hardwork.

Op, if your husband divorces you, i hear Gazza is single. ;)

sunshine and dalek I know, it's such a sad wee doodle! dalek the song from LBT is so sad... 'don't lose your way, with each passing day...' 😭 (These aren't tears, it's something in my eye!)

It's not him, it's you. You're making a show of yourself, just stop it.

shakeyourcaboose I have that song on my phone, I listen to it when I need a good cry! (But only in private, I'm not like the OP!)

Yes, go to Centre Parks. On Friday. That'll give you something to wail at. 😉

I was looking up posts about Rome and restumbled across this classic which always makes me laugh. You're welcome.

Inappropriate emotions reactions is an early symptom of many serious conditions. I suggest you speak to a GP about it.

Isn't this in Classics yet?!

It's an old post - I think it was decided that it was a troll but the comments are great!

Brilliant. I had forgotten about this one.

Screaming at the MA! 😂😂😂

Dammit Kewqueue I was hoping the ‘OP’ had finished crying and returned to the thread.
