Actually, you may want to consider revising how you go about seeming intelligent:
"Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt."

Sounds like you have a few things that need fixing, friend. First, you may be borderline or full blown depressive? Maybe your hormones are off balance or something? Being sensitive doesn't mean that you DO have a depressive condition, but it can mean that sometimes. Talk to a counselor to figure out which it is, ok? Better safe than sorry and might help you deal with things in a more positive way.
Another thing is, you might have a self esteem issue. You said you like to give long, drawn out answers to simple questions to sound more intelligent? Intelligence isn't shown by the number of words you speak, but what words you choose when speaking. Giving a long response can be aggravating to those talking with you, which might aggravate your sensitivity because you're getting a vibe from them that they're not overly impressed by you. Stop trying to impress people with length and use more succinct verbiage to accomplish your goals. Fix self esteem issues by finding things you like about yourself that you can be proud of. Confidence is more impressive to an outsider than the amount of words you use, so find things about yourself to be confident and proud of. Command respect that way and never fake modesty about anything just for the sake of hiding your ego. You don't have to rub it in anyone's face or anything. Just be proud of yourself and sure of your abilities. That's sure to gain respect every time.
Anyway, I mean no disrespect by any of this and hope it helps.
Good luck.
PS: I use a lot of words, but that's because I"m long winded...and a writer....lol
PSS: Also, learn to laugh at yourself. When you stop taking yourself so seriously, you'll find you're a little bit less sensitive about what others think about you. Plus, it makes life more fun. :)

Huh? What is the question? Men can be sensitive and cry just like women. If you give long drawn out answers to simple questions people don't think your intelligent most would either think that your nuts or don't know what the chit your talking about. Have a good one

The fact that you incorrectly spelled "drawnout," "inteligent," "doesn;t," and "alot" speaks volumes about you.
Add to that your non sequitur about egg shells and long answers, and you qualify as a walking intelligence black hole. Facts go in - but they never come out.
Don't worry - you'll cover many of those grammar errors next year - in 7th grade.

I don't understand what one thing has to do with another. You are overly sensitive and cry a lot; that has nothing to do with intelligence, it has to do with not having control over your emotions. Giving long, drawn out answers to simple questions is a good way to annoy others, but it doesn't make you more intelligent.

you don't sound deep and sensitive....you honestly sound whiney and a little feeble....and pretty self-serving. that probably pisses the wife off.
what the hell is the point of a long, drawn-out answer to a simple question? seriously. that's about you...not the question.

I think you should try really looooooong answers. You'll need it to pull off the intelligent impression.

Way to get in touch with your feminine side, man. But don't go thinking you can act like some pansy @ss prissy boy in here, because we'll eat you for lunch and spit you out.
Hehehehe...sorry couldn't help myself.
