Sometimes our brains need to feel sad sometimes, and it is perfectly okay to give into those feelings. Just make sure they don't get too out of hand!

Enjoyment and Sadness are not opposites. they may not be good pals, but they do get along. together
Some people feel happy when they are alone and left to their thoughts, others are needy and crave for attention and feedback.
Likewise you can derive a certain satisfaction from feeling sad, because you know you should. You might be upset if you were not sad when your goldfish died.
"What's wrong with me! Poor goldie, who cares?"
As long as you don't actually enjoy killing goldfish, then you are alright

For me, sometimes saddness is comforting - you feel like you've letten go, and have just let yourself sink. I feel like we often force ourselves to be happy, so when we are sad, it's like we don't have to try anymore. (Wow I know that was deep sorry)

That's actually not uncommon nor a weird or bad thing. Personally, I cherish the moments when I am sad or have my low moments over the good days, because it shows I'm changing and I am not bottling up all my feelings. We are all human and need to express our feelings, it's how we learn and grow and help maintain our mental health. It is important to cry and let yourself just let it out, I know when I do it isn't the best feeling ever, but I know that tomorrow I feel better and I know that later down the road in my future I'll look back on that low moment of mine and know that things were okay then and got better now. I think our low moments in life are one of the most life changing of them all because they change us into someone we can have full confidence and strength with. Without it, we are constantly feeling empty and thinking we are missing something.

Your emotions are how you deal with the things you are going through. Everybody is different and emotions are the same for each situation. If you feel your emotional response to a situation is not appropriate, perhaps speaking to a counselor or therapist can help you to sort out those feelings.

Honestly, I think it's a natural feeling to be sad at times. It happens. Very blunt answer but quite true and that's how I seem to be able to understand it.

I personally enjoy feeling sad sometimes too. I think I feel that way because it reminds me that I can still feel if that makes sense. Perhaps you enjoy it because it shows that you can feel and that you care :)

Without feeling any sadness in life, how can we understand what it means to be truly happy? I think of this sometimes when I am sad, it helps and also helps me to appreciate those moments of sadness.

It's rare but i do feel the same, may be it is because we are strong from inside? Whenever our guard get down and we start to feel upset and weak then our heart support us and starts to fight that feeling and make us happy from inside, i also sometimes smile when i am very sad. it is just a sign of good and strong heart. ;)

Enjoying being sad is just your way of coping sometimes, I feel like being sad opens your heart more to people. So maybe it's not being sad you enjoy, but the fact you get to share your feelings with others.
