Constantly. And you work against it.

like at a funeral or something and you begin to weep, someone comes up to you and tells you to "stop acting".

Yes, and it can be very hurtful. Sometimes people just don't believe you because you are an actor. On a very personal note, I went through a painful divorce with an abusive husband. In court, my ex told the judge that he shouldn't believe anything I said because I was a very good actress. I know that the judge knew he was just grasping at straws, but still...

Yes.
But, what other people think about you is none of your business.

yeah I get acused all the time of faking emotion! but as ZONEFACE said sometimes you do. Not so much in really serious situations like funerals or divorces (so sorry to hear about that Blanche) but little things.

Oddly enough, there are certain situations where I can't fake an emotion. For example, my mother's husbands grandchildren were up hear for a visit, and when my mother said, "aren't they adorable," I couldn't even pretend to say yes.

I get accused of indicating and doing too much, especially while singing. But then, there are those who say I'm not doing enough. In the end, you have to go with your heart.

No, Glinda, I mean in real life when a serious event has happened that affects you deeply and someone accuses you of "acting" when, in fact, you are not.
