Does anyone else here have a flat affect or have trouble expressing emotions?

[Enemyoftheearth]

And do you think it has anything to do with your inceldom or has caused you to experience social rejection? I struggle with it myself, and I often come off as uncaring, sad, or grumpy to others, even when I feel perfectly fine. I can still feel emotions, but it's really a struggle for me to express them properly. I'm also very quiet and timid. A lot of people treat me like absolute dogshit because of these issues. I think they might be related to my autism, but idk.

Yeah I have this, too. It's gotten worse ever since after my high school years. I overthink like crazy now, and I struggle to keep myself sane and I have been struggling for the past 2 years.

I have long forgotten how to express positive emotions

 

[subhumanmonkey]

My emotions have been flatlined for a very long time. I require a lot to actually be able to express myself. Back when I was part of society people used to say that my face looked sad

You need to have a good face for people to react well to your expressions of emotions.
I don't have this privilege.

I experience this just because I have closed myself off emotionally to not get hurt.
