I am not a cryer for the most part. Havent really had a good cry in a really long time. I did shed a few tears the other night when me and the girls went to pay our respects to a local marine killed in action. We really didnt expect an open casket as he was killed in a humvee by a roadside bomb. (really didnt think much would be left) but yupper, there he was. What sucked was that I had my 8 year old and my 14 year old with me. My 8 year old was not even scared, she said her thank you, and just stared. My 14 was a little more on the standoffish side, but still held in her breath and said her thank you. I said my thank you, turned around and had to hold back the overwhelming grief that took over my body. once outside, I cried a few tears.
not for me.. laughing is easier, it's commonplace and it comes from a completely different sort of situation crying usually comes from bottling up emotions, shoving things down in my mind, not dealing with stresses very well
I used to relieve 'my' emotion stress by punching guys who did cry. And then we graduated from elementary school.
A cry from the gut or the chest, not just the head, is powerful. Ever laughed so hard, from the gut, that you have tears streaming down your cada ? This is wonderful, magical. .
I cried yesterday. tears and funny noises and all. but before that, prolly when my dog died when i was 16.
i've just been so annoyed by girls crying at the drop of a hat or trying to get sympathy or out of trouble by sobbing. i hate that. your boyfriend insulted you? can't work it out? dump him. having a bad day and need a few minutes to cry? do it at home, finish your work so i don't have to do it for you. i've never given anyone any shit for crying, though MANY times i've wanted to. didn't get what you want? oh, why don't you cry about it. boyfriend wants to go out with his buddies? lay a sobbing guilt trip on him. jesus, i hate that shit. i hate when people cry all the time. they're just being manipulative. now, if your dog died, your mom was diagnosed with some illness? fuck, i'll do your job for you AND drive you home. but if you just got yelled at by your boss suck it the fuck up and get over it.
I cry when I need to, I don't see the point in holding it in. But I will go off by myself to do it so that I won't have to put up with people interrogating me about what I am crying for, when I am really just crying because I need to let it all out. I only cry around my boyfriend because he just hugs me and let's me cry until I'm finished without the endless questions.
I'm too manly. Unless I get sand in my eye. Or stub my toe. I cry if someone I care about is dying/in serious trouble/dead. Otherwise I just find other outlets for my emotions.
i dont see anything wrong with crying unless its overdone...my parents tought me that crying shows weakness...i dont cry infront of people makes me feel weird and im sure the person doesn't want to hear my snot filled woahs... My bf cries alot but i think thats due to waking up next to me..haha, yeah....
