That may be because feelings don't translate to words very well. We have other tools to express our feelings - looks, touch, how we carry ourselves, etc. Your body language will take care of itself, most times.

Another thing to keep in mind is that when you feel something and then start to worry about whether or not someone else will get what you're feeling, then that worry is a feeling too. So, instead of your happiness shining through, what others are seeing is you worried (about whether or not people will see your happiness). The same will happen when you are angry, frustrated, in love, etc. - only reinforcing your idea that nobody understands your feelings.

Don't worry about your feelings, FEEL them.
