So Emo

Is it better to be sensitive and know how to be sensitive with others but get hurt a lot or to develop a thick skin and know how to have things just roll off instead of hurt you, but maybe not be as good at handling sensitive situations?
What a poorly written, run-on sentence.

I'm really tired right now.  I've always thought it was good that I was sensitive.  I thought it showed me what would hurt other people so I could not do that....or helped me talk to sensitive people easier.  Sometimes I'm not sensitive with people though.  
I'm sick of getting hurt.  I take things personally and maybe sometimes I shouldn't.  I get angry at people sometimes for a long time and don't even tell them...so maybe they don't know.  Probably they don't know.  I have a hard time forgiving but I am capable of it.  It just takes me longer then the average person.  I've given up on people before and then changed my mind later.

I feel like I don't have a choice either way.  I can't make myself not sensitive.  I thought moving to NYC would somehow give me a thicker skin or teach me how to just take people's shit and not care.  It didn't work.  I still take things personally.  I still care what people think.  I still get hurt.

On another not-so-depressing note: I saw Children of Men recently and thought it was pretty cool.  The way they filmed some of the scenes was kind of neat.  I also saw Grindhouse which I thought was great.  Truly entertaining.  It's pretty amazing.
I also made up with an old friend and spent some time with her.  I'm glad things are alright again.
