How can I make a character's emotions bolder and more obvious without overemphasizing?

On SE I asked a similar question about how to emphasize more. But I want to find a good balance that won't end in my overemphasizing on anything or seeming to exaggerated. I'd prefer to make my character seem as "real" and "natural" as possible while still making an impact.

Welcome to Codidact! Could you add an example of a passage that you think is not bold enough, or one where you think you overshot? It would help us understand your goal better. Thanks.

I hate to be rude but... Are you the only active user here...? Everything else here is several months or years old.

There hasn't been much activity in our Writing community lately, alas, but I'm not the only person watching. Other communities are more active (such as Software Development). We're trying to grow -- activity begets people and people beget activity, but it's a bit of a vicious cycle I'm afraid.
