Are our beliefs about our emotions always true, or should other people always accept them to be true?

Asked by cooolbeans (85points) October 25th, 2009

Do we or should we always take people’s feelings about themselves as true under the proviso that they’re being honest with us and themsleves.
(Is not wording this in the way he likes)
For an example; if someone truly believes they’re straight, should we always accept that if this person truly believes this then it must be a fact, again under the proviso that they’re being honest with us and themselves.
The same goes with other emotions.
