How to use "Sensitive" in context?
When we talk about "sensitive," what do we mean? Some people might refer to someone as sensitive if they are easily offended or become emotional when something upsetting happens. Other people might say that someone is sensitive if they have a high sense of intuition or if they are naturally gifted at picking up on others' emotions. A third definition might say that someone is sensitive if they are highly attentive to their environment and perceive things around them in a more holistic way. All of these definitions could be accurate depending on the individual. So what qualifies someone as being sensitive? It could be anything from their diet to the way they dress.
