I cry at sappy TV commercials. I cry when young kids score their first goal, or get their first hit in baseball. Especially if they show the parents beaming and high-fiving in the crowd. I cry to hundreds of songs. I cry when I think of my four-legged brother dying before I do, and I cry when I think of his pain if I go first.


The older I get the more things there are to cry about. I call it Male Mentalpause.

When Hubby & I were first dating, we were watching a movie (Creator with Peter O'Toole-excellent movie). As many times as I see this movie, I ALWAYS cry at one point. When we watched that scene, I was so afraid to cry because I thought that Hubby would think I was stupid for crying at a movie. I looked over at him and tears were streaming down his face. I was like, "Oh, he cries at movies, too. It is ok." So, many times the two of us are crying together at movies.

I think the saying, "I hate to see a grown man cry" is so stupid. I would rather see a man cry-it shows that he is sensitive, has empathy and compassion-traits that I like in men-and women.

None of the above, just being a compassionate person who feels the connection with the rest of the world.

Crying is good for us, now and then.

I tested myself recently, by watching some great old films:

- Gone with the Wind 1939

- The_Search 1948

- On_Borrowed_Time 1939 < Nobody had greater cue-able waterworks like Bobs Watson.

Crying is a burden at times when I get to where I cry over any stupid thing, I never cry about not having something or getting hurt, it really makes me wonder if I can do anything about it.


What I said about Ben Affleck crying, well, thank God I am not in the public eye, but every time I think about Ben Affleck, I see him crying in Armegeddon and other movies, and then to see him crying in the back of that car was too much..... I might like to cry, but I don't want to see actors crying like babies, and on top of that, they got the whole world at their feet and they can't seem to be happy. I guess that might be hypocritical but if I was an actor, I wouldn't even take on a role that had me weeping, and I sure wouldn't let the world see me crying. I mean,'' FREAKING GET OVER IT BEN, big ass cry baby.
