Lately I have been all weepy, like I could cry at any given second. I see anyone crying about anything no matter what it is and I feel myself choking up. How about you on here. Do you get like that? Is it only certain times of the day/month. About certain things. Or do you know someone that does this and does it annoy you?

Normally I am not a weepy person, unless I am very sick or extremely hormonal - lol! When I was pregnant, there were times that I cried at everything, even a sad commercial would start the waterworks. My husband thought it was very cute, and I thought it was extremely annoying. Fortunately, it was not an all the time occurrence, so I learned to live with it for the duration of my pregnancy and a little while afterwards.
I think that there are times when we all feel like this, but I think we all deal with it a little differently. When I feel like that, I try to do things to take my mind off how I am feeling, like listening to music or playing games. When my husband feels like that, he usually gets angry with little or no provocation, but he is working on other ways to channel or release his emotions. When my mom feels like that, she cleans, etc.

Funny things happen to us when we are pregnant don't they? I have been like this for a long time now. It had passed a little and now I am all sad again. Mine is coming from looking at all the other people that I see that are hurting from losses and such.
Thanks for responding!!

I can understand that feeling, Ladygator. It really saddens me when I see the pain and loss that others have sustained, too. This time of the year brings about a lot of joy, but it also brings about a lot of sadness as well, especially since you can't have one without the other, although generally they are not felt at the same time. I think that is why this time of the year is so bitter-sweet, because it does bring up both great joy and great sorrow, especially if you are missing a loved one while others around you are happily celebrating.

I don't know if i'd say it annoys me. but a constant weeper might annoy me. its just emotions, it needs to be lead out, especially if pent up a little too long. I honestly try not to weep, at least not in public, it makes me feel weak and helpless, better to be helpless alone then some knowing it. But i know what you mean, there are sometimes when everything just makes you want to tear up, it has happened to me. I suspect it is pent up emotions, some say you need a good cry, let it all out. some would say to distract yourself, do something you like, relax. Hope you get over this period and come out stronger. just remember one thing, (i tell myself this often) there are people out there in way worst situations.
Have a nice day.

I feel like I am crying for other people. There seems to be no reason at times for the sudden break down. I am really shy thow about crying in front of anyone else I wont do it. I hid in the bathroom if there is anyone around.

Obviously ,I'm not a person weeping easily.People all say that men are not easy to cry ,even when some bad things happened .Actually I don't like that feeling,it annoys me and ,from my poing of view ,not healthy to our bodies!However when we feel sad for something, it's necessary to weep or cry out loudly to relive ourselves,not too often,I think.

I think that a real man can cry when he is hurt, especially when it is a deep, emotional hurt like the loss of a loved one. I have seen my dad cry at these times, or when he has really hurt my feelings and made me cry by saying something in anger that he did not mean, because hurting me in that way and seeing me cry really hurt him (this has only happened twice in my life, but that was enough). My dad is a real man by anyone's standards, in my opinion, so when people say that "real men don't cry" I find it a very ignorant statement. That is basically saying that they are like robots and do not have feelings, which is not true at all.
On the other hand, I have know guys that cried at the most ridiculous things, like having a bad day at work - I am not talking about a catastrophically bad day where it would make sense to cry but your "garden variety bad day" that everyone has once in a while. I find that annoying, but I would find it annoying in a woman, too.
