Do You Cry Easily?

Other

My friends and family see me as a strong independent woman. I do not rely on others not do I ask for help although my sons give it unreservedly. But beneath the seemingly strong exterior I have a marshmallow heart and cry very easily, especially if someone is kind to me. A colleague gave me a plant for giving her a couple of lifts and it brought tears to my eyes!

I am not ashamed to admit that I shed a tear often when watching tv, capt Tom, sad films, bad news etc. Luckily no one can see this side of me or my rep would be down the drain lol.

Gosh yes, very easily. I'm very emotional, I just can't help it. I moved countries a few times in my life and at every leaving parties I can barely talk as I'm crying throughout for example.

I get tearful most days whether it’s a sad cry or a kind tear. I wish I didn’t have this it a nuisance especially if I’ve got mascara on. Despite buying waterproof mascara it always runs.

More with age I've found. Everything gets me emotional these days, even deals on here.

Lol, never sure if you're joking Dennab but I agree some of the deals are laughable to the point of tears and despairing to the point of tears.

But I am not quite that bad lol.

Lynibis There's a bit of truth in that comment. I do get far too passionate about deals. 😄

I usually react with crap deals by laughing. Sometimes even a full on laughing fit if the deal is really bad. 😆 😂

My hubby says i cry enough for the both us.. He never crys. We been together 13 years he cried once. I don't think I'm as bad as I used to be. My daughter taking over me she is 11 so probably hormonal changes with her. 😭🤣

Perhaps whenever I see a "cat vs dog" type thread, but other than that not really. 🤣

Lynibis Yes, that probably would. Though at least it would be original. 😀

I had forgotten that I posted this as I have been wanting to have a damn good cry for ages and cannot manage to do so!

Yes, I often well up when things touch me on tv, news, or son phoning the other day to tell me how much he loved me as he was listening to something on radio about mums.

But at the moment I really feel I need to cry me a river to let out all my frustrations and negativity but welling up is as far as I can get!

Like everyone I am fed up being a prisoner (alone) indoors, can't seem to be motivated as I have finished projects, can't find tv/films I haven't already seen and a few unpleasant goings on on here haven't helped.

It won't last long, I always bounce back refusing to give in to pity parties. Does a good cry help? I always regret it after as I get an awful headache lol.

Sorry you feel this way it’s good to talk even if it’s only your Alexa device 😂😀, I would do anything to cry at the moment as have a huge stye whice has blocked my tear duck and it’s so dry and itchy.

whice hasn’t helped being full of a cold same time. Am forgetting about it for the afternoon and we taking a nice country drive and pop into a nice big Lidl 😁

Ann1984 maybe you can visit a pharmacy while you are out, they may have something to help. It is so difficult to restrain yourself from rubbing eyes, even more important at the moment, I do it all the time, especially when tired.

Lynibis I went and paid for eye test to see why always getting them was told bath eye in baby shampoo and hot compress. Total waste my money when google told me that. I bought some eye drops to wet eyes but if not worked will have to see gp

Ann1984 I'd ask at pharmacist as Lynibis suggested as you may have an infection in tear duct. Surely shampoo would stink, even if it was baby.

I rarely cry unless its watching tv. It's strange things that don't make me cry in real life make me cry on tv

I think this year has been hard for us all. I find myself crying at the good news stories. I don't think it makes you weak to be able to show your emotions, just human 🙂
