How would a person who avoids showing their true feelings likely be perceived?

Agree
Disagree
Strongly Agree
Strongly Disagree

The correct answer is: Strongly Disagree

A person who avoids showing their true feelings is likely to be perceived as emotionally closed off or distant. This behavior can lead others to interpret their lack of emotional expression as a sign of disinterest or aloofness, making it difficult for people to connect deeply with them. Such individuals may come across as unapproachable and may struggle to build trust or intimacy in their relationships. By suggesting strong disagreement with the idea that they would be perceived negatively, it overlooks the common social expectations for emotional expression. People generally respond positively to vulnerability and openness; therefore, those who consistently hide their feelings may create barriers to positive perceptions from others who value emotional connections. Thus, the perception of emotional avoidance is quite the opposite of strong disagreement with the notion of negative perception.
