With or without "Se"
Why in Spanish do you sometimes use "se" and others not like in the examples below.
"Se me caen los pantalones" "My trousers are falling down" "Se me bajan las gafas" "My glasses are slipping down" "Se me ha caído el bolí" "I've dropped the pen" (All with "se") but in these next sentences it's without se. "Le está saliendo agua de la mochila" "Water is leaking out of her bag" "Te arrastra el vestido" "Your dress is dragging on the ground" "No me gusta cuando el agua me entre en los ojos" I don't like getting water in my eyes" Why is it not for example "se te arrastra el vestido" because the dress is "doing it to itself"????
