    Cry all the time it's healthy. Just not in public, then it's needy

    That time I was on that singing competition and they did a bt about my life and how the granny i never met or gave a **** about died from neglect and how much I missed her and whatnot.
    I think they played coldplay over it.

    I cry a lot, I cry at happy things, I cry at sad things. I watched ET last night and shed a few tears.

    Not joking.

    Saturday night whilst watching some tv programmes. Guaranteed to blub at something no matter what I watch :pac:

    I don't cry that often but when I do, I cry and cry and cry.....it's like an outburst of emotion.

    I cried for ages when I was six when Max died, he was half collie/half greyhound and would follow me everywhere. He was a puppy when I was a baba. The worst think about it was he got killed following me to school. :( The doggy heaven thing softened the blow but I was still devastated. :(

    I also cried for a 2 weeks straight when I was 17 over a very close relative dying. :(

    A few years back my very old, very sick, very loved Auntie told me: "I will see my sister, your Grannie, very soon". And this grown man nearly told her "Give her a kiss for me". I had to turn away.

    Here I go again. Dammit Auntie :( ...

    I don't cry.

    What I do is squeeze my emotions into a bitter little ball and release them at an approprate time. Like that day I hit the referee with a whiskey bottle.

    Remember that? When AnonoBoy hit the referee?

    Yesterday morning. A beloved family member died ten days ago and I woke up from the first full night's sleep I've had since then -slept so well I only remembered he was dead when halfway through waking up. Horrible feeling. I had also forgotten that you shouldn't cry while lying on your back, or your tears will fall into your ears and tickle you.

    Hate crying in public, but there's nothing wrong with going somewhere quiet and getting it out of your system.

    Last time i cried was years ago when I was 14, i was just listening to some songs, felt sad and cried for no specific reason, it was a weird experience, have never felt the urge to cry since.

    About 20 minutes ago, and probably within the next 20 minutes again....and for what reason?....NOT A DAMN THING!

    Oh the joys of PMS!

    When my Dad died.

    And funny, but I can handle the anniversaries and birthdays OK - little things trip me up. Like I was just up the barns and he'd made a hook to store a cable when we were up there sometime and I'd never noticed it until now, 2+ years later.

    If I'm on my own that's OK - if not it's the pollen or something in my eye ;)

    About three years ago I stayed up all night to finish a college assignment, e-mailed it in and decided to watch Up for the first time. Cried like a wee babby at the opening scene. I blame it on sleep deprivation.

    It wasn't the last time I cried, but the start of that movie was just the saddest thing I ever saw! I bawled and every time they mentioned the book or the wife later on in the movie I was off again.

    I was very pregnant at the time though - so I'd like to think that is why....but I've never been able to bring myself to watch it again - if my kids ever want to watch I might have to skip forward about half an hour :)

    Actually, on the bus last year. Some creep pulled my earphones out, cried even more.

    And again on the Green Line Luas...

    Last week when people kept posting sad animal videos in the "Are You Sentimental" thread.

    Being pregnant is a fair excuse. :)

    You sure it wasn't the luas green line?


    I'm a sensitive enough sort of guy so fairly regularly. During the day and especially in sunny days like today I'm in a great mood and people will tell you I'm always in good form. But then I go to bed and can't sleep and start thinking about ways to kill myself, imagining my own funeral and heaps of self loathing I start to cry a little and feel like ****. Then I get a weird sense of relaxation and these are some of the best nights sleep I get.

    I can't really explain it but I think maybe your mind needs to release these emotions and if I'm going around feeling fantastic all day my body maybe just needs to create a balance. I just don't know.

    Watching the Supervet programme.

    I was trying hard to think when the last time was. It was definitely watching this. I cried my eyes out during every single episode!

    Just had a bit of a micro weep over Rick Mayall's death , feel like part of my childhood is gone away. Damn it anyway , quite upset by that :(

    When each of my 3 daughters were born...very emotional moment to see your child for the first time.

    Last time was the final episode of "Derek" series 1...just blew me away how gervais portrayed Derek and the way he dealt with meeting his father.

    Cried in the canteen today as my shoes were literally cutting my heels to shreds, bastarding things.
    I was already running late so I couldn't go home and change them. Won't make that mistake again!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,346 ✭✭✭LynnGrace


    Just watched Eamon Dunphy on The Meaning of Life with Gay Byrne and what struck me was the amount of times he cried in the space of 26 minutes.

    Me, I did about 4 years ago when a close family member died. How about you? :)

    I saw some of the programme, he was very emotional, he cried nearly the whole way through.
    Last time I cried, was at a kindness, when I was feeling low, about 3 months ago.

    2 years ago when I had to get my sick german shepherd put down,cried like a little girl on the way to vets,in vets & all the way home,very embarrasing for a 30 year old fella,have changed vets since.
    It's almost impossible to hold it together in those circumstances and nobody, especially the vet or vet nurses expect you not to get very upset. It's something I've had to do more often than I'd want to and even with animals that I've had to take but not known, it's an extremely emotional experience. I'm just glad that I was there and they weren't alone.

    Watching Marley & Me was such a tear jerker. I was 14 I think when I saw it and I cried all the way home from the cinema!

    When my kids were born.

    At the start of the credits of Black Hawk Down, get me every time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 279 ✭✭Hey Yall


    Cried watching sons of anarchy (SPOILER)
    The scene in season 3 episode 11 when Jax finds Abel with his adopted parents at the shopping centre and hes just watching them be happy as a family and doesn't know what to do. Broke my heart to be honest and the song really made it all so emotional. Apart from that dont really cry just get angry..
