 Don't ever change for anyone, you are the person you are and people should accept that, the people that matter will love you for who you are and not who they can change you into the others don't matter.
Like Astrid said beware of people ready to use you or hurt you because of this quality you have.
Good luck :o)

 I think it is lovely that you are but beware of people who uses your quality to hurt you, they don't deserve you and you should ignore them all

I don't think I'll be changing that, I am this way and people will have to accept and so do I, I have a heart, it's just a little sensitive.
Thanks

Im female so everyone expects its ok to be sensitive but i can be so sensitive it gets on ppls nerves I dont think im that bad but i seem to pick up on one word or phrase that someone says and mull it over thinking about all the possible things that it could mean, turn it into something bad and then freak out.Like if my bf doen't put the word babe in a text i begin to think he is going off me
Maybe this isn't the kinda sensitive you are but i have tried everything to be less sensitive and nothing seems to work We are just born this way The same as some people seem to be (for lack of a better word) hard. SOme people find being sensitie attractive The only advice i can give you is dont try to change babe
Good luck and take care

 Hi Anon,
Being sensitive is a great quality - why do you want to become less sensitive? I think it would be a mistake to try and turn yourself into someone without sensitivity. Many people would love to have a partner that is like you. I seriously think you should reconsider this.
I suggest you think what good would it do for you. Do you want to be seen as insensitive? I know whenever I've met those kinds of people, I've always thought of them as jerks. I seriously think that more people should be more like you - the world would probably be a much better place.
Sorry I haven't answered your question of "how can I become less sensitive," but I really think that would be a bad move for you.
I'm also wondering what made you ask this question... Was there some kind of drama that recently happened? A bad break-up or something where someone said you were too sensitive? Or do you think you are too sensitive because you're hurting right now? If this is the case, then be happy that you're not some unemotional lump like many people are. It's good to experience emotions - good and bad. It helps make a person whole and you shouldn't want to lose that. I could expand more, but I don't know if this is why you want to be less sensitive...
