I think it's better that way, the moment is 4 action. Just imagine fellas walking out of a cinema, after having seen some cheap flick with donald duck, with big red swollen eyes and long faces! People this is not the way forward. I'm all 4 people expressing themselves and what is in their hearts, but there should alse be at times some reserve. I know someone who almost cannot cry at all. She's been through some really hard times and doesn't cry much at all even though she wishes she could.She just holds the pain in until she works through the situation at hand. Sometmes that's the only way she feels she can stay alive. "Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind"-Dr Seuss

Or you don't want to share it in fear that someone else would not understand what you were going through and why it made you cry (which happens to me all the time). RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

But it really is no wonder that people don't like to cry in public. It is afterall, among other things, perhaps, an obvious display of weakness. It'll usually attract a narrow range of various reactions, at a time when interaction often is'nt desired. Probably women cry more than men, it sometimes is a hormonal thing plus it's just more socially accepted for women to cry. I suppose some people perceive it as weakness but I don't. I think it's a healthy outlet for the emotions. I just feel vulnerable doing it around other people. And yeah, sometimes people's reactions are not what you need at the time. Amen to that! My mom sometimes will say to me when I'm upset, "That attitude is not going to help". I got pissed at her one day and said, "Well, your saying that to me not helpful either!" Don't understand why she acts this way sometimes, when all I need is for someone to talk to. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Having come out of a crying period not long ago, I'm definitely inclined to agree with you, all it did (for me) was make me mad for crying over something in the first place and make me harder…I don’t crying again in my future. | |
