Have you ever lain on the floor and cried?

About some bloke? (Or girl?)

It somes up in so many songs, lying on the bedroom/bathroom/kitchen floor crying after a breakup. Is it just me that has never done this? Am I cold and heartless? Or is it another thing that people do in songs but never in real life (like calling each other "baby" - actually I had a foreign boyfriend who tried that one, and I said, No, Absolutely not, People only do that in songs, I am not a baby!"

Just wondering.

I have cried on the floor from grief but not for the end of a relationship. I was surprised how much losing someone hurts physically, I just couldn't stay upright.

I've lain on the floor and cried many times, but never over a man.

I spent a lot of time sobbing on the bathroom floor during both my HG pregnancies.

Not over a break up, I don't think, but yes over bereavement and family illness and financial crisis.

Sat in the shower and cried - totally overwhelmed and needed to do it somewhere I wouldn't be heard or interrupted
