Staying busy so you don't have to feel anything is NOT a healthy coping mechanism.
Holding in your emotions in will only cause them to spill out in other places.
Ever hear the saying "don't cry over spilled milk"? The reason someone was crying over spilled milk is because they didn't have the emotional capacity to handle that accident with grace and that's where all their pent up emotions have also spilled out.
Feel your feelings and let them go so they don't spill out in your romantic relationships and on your partner.
