Whether it’s with your friends, family or, perhaps most importantly, the romantic relationships in your life, being able to express your feelings is important. The notion that the person you love, or the person you want to start a relationship with, will never know your feelings for them can be pretty painful. But even the shyest or most introverted of us all can learn how to speak and express more freely. Here are a few ways to do that.





Address what’s holding you back
There are a lot of reasons you might be afraid to say how you feel, even if you really want to. A lot of us might tend to look past the messy emotional roots of such issues because they can change how we see ourselves. However, looking at the reasons as shown at psychcentral.com and being aware of the problem can help you find the way out of it. For instance, if you learn you have a fear of rejection, then simply practicing getting rejected can help you get over it.

Put it in words

Do you feel like you get tongue-tied every time you try to express yourself? Perhaps the issue isn’t that you’re unable to express yourself, but rather you have trouble putting the words together to do it effectively. As such, one good way to get more comfortable and more confident is to think about what you want to say long before you say it. You can practice by writing down your feelings first, for instance. There’s nothing less genuine about rehearsing to say your genuine feelings, it can just make you feel a little more confident about doing it.

Give it a practice run

When you know how you feel about someone, then you can practice learning to be more open in expressing it, too. When it comes to getting more comfortable with expressing romantic feelings or putting yourself out there in the dating world, then making use of websites like thechatlinenumbers.com can be a great help. As such, you can practice talking to people in a much more pressure-free environment. When you get comfortable talking to them, then you can also start to feel more comfortable talking to people who you actually know and want to express your feelings to.

Learn how to express it in other ways

Some people will always have a bit of difficulty vocally expressing their feelings. It’s something we can continue to work on, but expecting fast results can lead to disappointment, as well. As such, in the meantime, you can learn non-verbal ways to show your feelings, be it through gifts, gestures, or even learning the language of flowers. There’s nothing wrong with taking an alternative path to express how you feel to someone you care about.

Learning how to speak to your feelings can be a highly liberating process, once you get comfortable and don’t have to keep it all caged in. However, finding any means to express your emotions, even non-verbal ones, can work just as well.
