Crying (Time out:0 days after 10-12-2003, 13:15)
I cry at the drop of a hat- it can be embarrassing
I cry often
I sometimes cry
I rarely cry
I can well up a little, but I can't actually cry
I am an emotionaless being- call me Mr. Spock
emotions do not cause me to cry, but onions do
cutting bananas causes me to cry

At the wake I broke down -- at the funeral, I cried less.


As people were walking by, shaking hands with me, or hugging me, I couldn't contain my emotions very well, but my siblings were able to steel themselves.

But I don't deny it, I have cried in the past. But in the last, let's say 5 years, I've cried maybe twice. It's weird, I don't cry at funerals or things like that.. but I cried my eyes off when my doggie had to be put to sleep.. That was a tough one personally, and still kind of is. Weird, I don't cry for people, but for animal.. You know little girls cry when their pets die. But then again, she was my friend so I don't know.. not just 'a pet'. Also I might have got my eyes little wet when I listened this classical CD, but that's pretty much about it. And in that CD, I got my eyes wet listening to valkyyries ride and ONLY becase it is strong and reminds me of those choppers whailing on that Vietnamese village. So it was emotional me ONLY because it was PURE STEEL.

I cry at weird moments, I'm a very emotional person, which isn't always expressed in tears but still.

And I have no problem admitting it.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

I'm like Pekka. I raely cry for anything, but when it comes to animals.....I can hardly hold it.
Weird, my gran ma died and I didn't cry, people die and I dont cry, but the other day, I gave one of my cat away because we already had 2 and I knew it was going in a good home and everything but it did not matter. I couldn't stop crying and I dont know why...My gf didn't even twitch....but we saw a movie the other day called ''Seraphin'' and she cried the whole time while....I was laughing....

I'm f*cked up I think....

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Due to a blocked tear duct, my party trick used to be holding a piece of onion to my eyeball.

Since then it's cleared out, so I'm pretty normal now in the crying stakes - rare but it happens. Can actually do you a lot of good.

You might research the character of Frank Barone on Everyone Loves Raymond. I believe he had the same condition of hating humanity, but loving the animal kingdom.

I get a few tears at the weirdest moments:

I just got a few tears by looking at the OT threads (Not by opening a thread)... but I didn't see anything worth getting teards from...

I get a few tears when watching movies at the strangest moments... in areas with simple talking, nothing about killing, love or anything... just simple plain talk...





...and then people say I should get my head examed

I seem unable to cry. I can well up tears- I did just tonight watching a movie.




Some memories make my eyes tear up, but nothing as disgusting as you clouding up over a movie.

But when I was a kid I cried really easy but only when angry. Then people would always misinterpret why I was crying which'd only make me get angrier and made me cry more. I did the 1. Have a kid do something mean to me. 2. Me get pissed off. 3. Start crying. 4. Get teased for crying. 5. Launch myself at him fists swinging no matter how much bigger than me he was. 6. Get the both of us suspended cycle more times than I can count.


Boshko:

That's not too different from my experience. I would get mad at myself, and start crying. Then I would get teased relentlessly and lash out. Thankfully, no one who teased me had the spine to go any further than the first punch.

Eventually, I eased up on myself, and stopped caring so much about a game. Didn't matter to everyone in my elementary school, they never forgot, and still teased me. I was very glad to move on, though occassionally I would feel the need to intimidate a jerk who still would not leave me alone. All I would do is grab someone by the neck, pick them up, and then put them down. Word spread pretty fast that I was not to be messed with.

As for now, I'm still pretty sensitive, and I prefer it that way to being obtuse. I like my intense feelings now that I know how to deal with them better.

It's been a long time since I've sat through a sermon with dry eyes.

The same can hardly be said about my eight year old punches

Eventually I eased up and stopped caring so much about everything. I used to be a real nuerotic high strung little bastard, thank god I'm not like that anymore.

Well at the last funeral I was at I was doing OK until they carried the casket past me, then it was completely a lost cause...
