That means not to be able to hide your feelings, not to be restrained in it:)

I've never really liked this saying. But you're right, it means that someone doesn't hide what they feel and is forthcoming about their feelings.

On a side note, I've been told this is attractive by some and that it's unattractive by others.

:roll:
