Do You Cry Easily?

[EternalOptimist7]

I have always been a very emotional person but even more so since adopting DD. I cry at the drop of a hat! I love that I’m softhearted. Sometimes I just have to be thinking about something & it can set me off. I love that DH is a cryer too. He is ex Navy & can come across quite tough but he’s such a softy really.

Yes! Not for sad reasons though, but for happy ones. Father Christmas has a float that he rides around our local area and as he passed by my home today, my eyes filled up. I don't have kids yet but the thought of my Nieces and Nephews excitement at Christmas wells me up!

I cry (genuinely, not fake) at the drop of a hat. I don't know why, and I don't know how to stop it happening. It's very embarrassing, and I am often ashamed of myself for it.

I wouldn't say I'm a particularly emotional person. I do 'well up' quite often but don't actually properly cry all that much. The last time I properly cried was through frustration and anger. I'm terrible for welling up when someone else is crying though!

I do cry easily. When I'm angry. When I'm frustrated. When I'm being sentimental.
And I've cried every day since November the 4th when we found out that DH's cancer has returned, and this time it's even worse.

@bloodywhitecat I'm so sorry your DP has got cancer too

Never cry. Find it very difficult

Lookto I am so sorry 💐

No, not at all. I wish I could because it's all built up but I just can't!

I do. Always have had a great sense of emotion.
I used to be register / celebrant and I soon had to ‘toughen up’ after almost crying at a few of the weddings I conducted!

I used to cry all the time. Sad, angry, happy, whatever. I take too many antidepressants now to cry and I kind of miss it. On the rare occasions I do start, I can’t stop.

Emotions leak out of my tear ducts at every opportunity. It plays havoc with my rational, sensible image.

The last time I cried both my girls were little like less younger than 1 and 2 respectively, they both has S+D, neither had slept more than 20 minutes at a time for 4 days and they were both clung to me constantly, my partner made a Sunday dinner and as soon as he passed me the plate both girls vomited all over my food and me. I just sat there crying covered in sick and starving .

Before that I can't remember, I didn't cry when my in laws or my dad passed away, or when my mum told me she had cancer

My son asked me a few days ago why I don't cry and I really wish I could, I get upset, I feel it at the back of my throat, I get goosebumps then it's gone

Absolutely not. I’m not a cryer at all. ‘Emotive ‘tear-jerker’ films, TV etc make me want to 🤮 not cry.

My natural cynicism means that those ghastly guilt-tripping charity adverts featuring starving children or abused animals just make me laugh. Are people really stupid, naive and gullible enough to fall for them?

Didn't used to. Since getting into my 40s, when I'm premenstrual, I'll cry at pretty much anything.

Only since dh 40 was diagnosed with stage 4 terminal cancer last year, he has outlived his life expectancy and very poorly. Our amazing dd 15 shaved her head yesterday to raise money for the chemo ward he is being treated on, I sobbed. Her hair was down to her bum and is being donated to The little princess trust. I was and am so bloody proud of her.

Music
Cards
Happy ending films
Missing my mum

All get me started

I do now- since this year won't stop shitting all over us.
