6 Signs You're an Emotional Brick
Thought Catalog

1. You get incredibly uncomfortable when people cry in front of you.

You usually give them a wildly awkward pat on the top of the head and tell them to suck it up. If that doesn't work, you call in reinforcements.

2. You express your emotions in the most inappropriate of ways.

If you're sad you may just yell at everyone for a couple of days rather than saying how you feel. That would just make things too easy.

3. People touching you is literally your worst nightmare.

People who think it's socially acceptable to just go up to someone and hug them irk you to your core. I will accept your greetings and salutations in any form of hand shake or high five, thank you.

4. Flirting with the opposite sex is like being stabbed in the eyes with a fork.

Social interactions in which you are required to be charming and friendly sound like your worst nightmare. Cute giggles and witty remarks have never really been your strong suit anyway.

5. Everyone comes to you in their time of need because they know you're a brick wall.

You give the best advice because you will never get emotionally attached. Crisis is what you live for because it means you can finally put your pragmatic judgement to some good use.

6. You say inappropriate things at the most inappropriate of times.

Any sort of great loss or deep experience is just an open invitation for you to make things uncomfortable so it's best that we just not go there in the first place.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
