Do you feel guilty when you make someone cry?

I mean, you say a few words that makes the person burst into tears.I feel kinda guilty because it's not my nature to hurt people, but sometimes it happens.And it's really uncomfortable feeling.

I always feel terrible when I see someone crying, even if I haven't said one word to them, I just really hate to see people crying. But if I have made them cry that will just make me feel even worse

Normally it would bother me a lot. I try not to do it, sometimes it's accidental, and it's not a nice feeling. However, I know a certain step-child who routinely turns them on and off at will, and uses them to weedle whatever she's wanting out of her father. When I call her to task on them, you should see how fast the stop... As much as that bothers me, I would have liked that talent when I was growing up...lol.

So, people can manipulate us using the tears.Women often do it with men.

Hi silver, sometimes I have experienced that it is just some simple thing you may say to someone that seems to be a spark that makes the other person cry, it isn't a nice feeling when that happens but it can also help the person to talk about the problem or what it is that brought them to tears..crying is a form of healling am sure you know and having someone to listen too is helpful...LoLo

I hate that, I never know what to say and it's just as bad if you break into tears that is so embarrassing. Often it has nothing to do with what you said, it's just the straw that broke the camel's back.

Hey, Yes I always feel guilty if I would make someone to cry. Although I haven't done this for a while (I don't think I have ever done it), I can't imagine seeing a person crying because of my wrong doing. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

I think the only person I have made her to cried was my little sister but that was just because she did something wrong and I just taught her to do things right. I don't really like to make her cry though seeing she is my sister and I want her to be smiley always. I think other people makes me cry more than I do it to others becaus eI'm easy to have tears and my feelingsd are easy to hurt... my hubby has done that to me many times before... I feel awful when my feelings get hurt...

It takes so much less for me to feel guilty. To be honest, if I just think that I have hurt someone's feelings I start to feel guilty. No one has to cry, or yell, just a perception of me making someone feel guilty or even uncomfortable, and i will feel the need to apologize. what's funny, is that there have been times when i have thought I made someone feel bad and gone to talk to them about it and they're like, "What are you talking about?"

it is the communication which created relation and destroys relation. it is not every time possible to produce always sweet words.i suggest behave as you are and reflect your true feelings through your words.
