Not very. I was a very sensitive child but my emotions mostly feel planed away in recent years. I'm more practical and logical really. I think nostalgia is often harmful or in the very least non constructive.

I'm an emotionless husk of a human that treats human interactions as transactions in which I emotionally manipulate others in order to get what I want. But then I cry at Pixar movies so idk

I start to think I'm not and then.. Idk.. I see something or hear something and then I miss people. I guess it's the people I miss. I love my life now, but I do miss a lot of people I use to know really well.

when i was a kid my parents stored most of our photos digitally onto a single hard drive. one day the drive fucked up and wiped like 75% of my childhood photos away, and we weren't able to recover them. it's fucking depressing to go home to my parents place as an adult and have basically no record of huge chunks of my life, so as a result today I place a probably unusually huge sentimental value on photographs and try and do everything I can to backup and preserve them.

Not very. In fact have have been referred to as a rather cold person and overly logical person. Though when I do show my softer side it is in less obvious ways.

Yes, surprisingly so. I have a pretty dry and deadpan personality in general, so people are usually kinda confused when I get sentimental about stuff. No one expects the robot to get all sniffly during a movie.

I'm very sentimental...it honestly makes it hard to get through the day sometimes. Suddenly I'm reminded of my ex, and I have an inner temper tantrum of sadness and anger.

I yearn for the days when we were together and I felt like nothing could go wrong.

I consiedered myself a pretty cold guy that never cried, not even on funerals... that changed the first time I was in love (instead of just liking someone) and I dropped my "barriers".

I think people are confusing sentimentality with being emotional. I'm not very sentimental, ie have a yearning for the past. I'm more interested in the future.

I definitely keep trinkets, old photos, and things of that sort. Fond memories of times spent with friends, before the inevitable new jobs, new homes, and new political divisions.

A very select few things can move the meter. Otherwise, I'm just a cold lump of uncaring pragmatism.

Either attribute can suit it, actually. ^^' It stands apart from the breadth of being generally emotional as it is more exclusively characterized by a vulnerable sense of self-composure. Contrary to more widespread labile connotations, it is marked by melancholy, attachment, sensitivity, and the like, to which reminiscence for the past is a primary relative.

I'm very sentimental, to the point where it's an issue, lol. I get nostalgic way too easily, I get attached to random shit too much, I get attached to people for no particular reason.

I've had serious problems from this and I honestly wish I wasn't so sentimental.

It's pretty extreme and can be difficult at times to deal with.
