    ...and what makes you cry?

    I've been crying a lot recently, almost daily, but I'm not even sad.

    Generally, if I'm really sad, I can't cry. But music, movies and books regularly move me to tears. I'm sitting in the internet cafe now with tears streqaming down my face because of this song.

    Music, movies and books cant make me cry.
    I only cry when something bad happens or when I'm really upset and frustrated.

    i almost never cry. it takes something awfully big and hurtful or monumentally frustrating for me to cry. it just doesn't happen very often. i'm not quite a soft touch for the moving moments.

    I can think of so many movies that have left me drying my eyes. One of the reasons that the cinema is not a dating option for me.

    I rarely sob or breakdown, but the tears certainly flow.

    i've been to wake after wake after wake, since I was a teenager. And I really never cry at them. I feel like i'm forced to cry, and I don't. Only with my grandpa and my friend did I seriously lose it.


    I guess I cry a lot, but I don't mistake it for being weak. My waterducts betray me.

    yeah, that's what 'm talking about. i'm moved, i'm enthralled, i'm just not crying.

    however, i was a MASSIVE crybaby as a child, so that may have something to do with it.

    Well, it's not like I'm randomly bursting into tears all the time or anything.

    In fact, most of my friends would probably saw that I never cry. But the important people, they know.

    I was once standing on a deserted beach at midnight in Australia, during a huge thunderstorm, naked, listening to the huge surf, and I just started crying cos the world is such a beautiful place.

    Yeah, I mean I live in new york, it has its beauty, but I don't experience thunderstorms naked by the ocean in australia. So I might get teary eyed, but for the most part, beautiful things is finally reason NOT to cry.

    I've seen my dad cry, i've seen my mom cry a lot, not too long ago I had my 20 yr old brothers head in my lap with him crying. Crying just...is natural in my family. We're not over emotional, or weak. We've just had to go through hard things. So we cry.

    I've never seen my Dad cry and I never will(he's been gone for 16 years).

    I don't think he can.

    My sister could cry at will. She often did to get me into shit, saying I'd hit her and stuff.
