Ask.Mefi: How do guys feel about girls crying? ⇒

   30 January 2009, mid-morning

The last time I remember tearing up grade 7, because I couldn't find the bus I needed to take at Scarborough Town Centre and I was going to be late for school. (Oh how things change, in OAC I would stay home during TTC strikes while my aunt drove my brother to school.) I can't actually remember the last time I actually cried. Shima on the other hand is a bit of a crier. I don't really have strong feelings one way or another about crying, except you should probably only cry over stuff that's actually important. Otherwise it doesn't actually mean much.

  1. Actually, this is something I’ve thought about before. The spectrum of crying, in my mind, lies between crying about something totally selfish and something completely selfless. Shima tearing up, while uncomfortable from a sympathetic point of view, never really irritated me. Other, more self-involved people on the other hand… dog muzzle, no question.

  2. I wonder if there is anyone I know I haven’t cried infront of yet? Haha. I am such a cry baby.

  3. I disagree that you have to cry about something important. People laugh about unimportant and stupid things all the time. So why the hate on crying?

    My motto: laugh hard, and cry hard. I cry about everything, from reading a good sappy stories on thestar (the act of kindness column always gets to me) to being stressed out at work.

    It makes me sane.

  4. I agree. Why only cry over stuff that is important? Why not just cry when you feel like crying? Why are you so unemotional?

    And yes, I am crying as I write this. Ha.

  5. Anyone ever laugh till they cried? I don’t mean laugh till they teared… I mean laugh till they were bawling.

    That shit is weird, yo.

  6. I remember when Supitha and I were with Krishna talking about the Rubix Cube, supitha and I were laughing so hard because we couldn’t figure out what the hell he was going on about, I think I laughed so hard that tears came

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
