is it okay for a husband to cry in front of his wife?

Why shouldn't it be okay? My husband and I haven't been together for long, but I have seen him cry. However, I don't think any less of him for crying. Men have just as much of a right to cry as women do. After all, my husband is only human, just like myself. He's seen me cry. I don't try to hide it from him. It has also happened that he's cried in private, but then I found out about it. I just don't understand why husbands shouldn't cry in front of their spouses.

My husband and I have been together for just over 11 years and in all those years I have only seen him cry once..while I love the manly protective shell of a man when I saw him cry it made me respect him more. I know that my husband has a sensitive side in the way that he cares for myself and his children and he can also be that strong protective type when he needs to be. In my opinion I don't see anything wrong with a man crying as long as it isn't all the time like a hormonal woman might do but shower a softer side is also very sweet and I don't know about other woman but I don't mind it.

I think it takes more of a man to be able to show his feelings than to hide them especially with someone he loves. My hubby has on occasion cried in front of us. When our kids were born , and More so when the grandkids were born and he was holding them for the first time. Once when we were on the verge of splitting up. We have been together for almost 22 years now .

A weakness? NO!!! In fact, I would consider it shows a decided weakness if a man cannot cry in front of his wife - tears of sadness, tears of joy, tears of pain..... I pity the man who feels it is "unmanly" to cry in front of his wife or in any other situation. A REAL man will allow his feelings to show and not pretend to be something he isn't. More so, I pity the wife for having such a cold, unfeeling husband.

yes certainly, there's nothing wrong with that. It may show his weakness but as they say if the man show his tears it means, we is brave and doesn't care what else think. After all, its his wife we are talking about so I think it is just fair to show his softer side.

I think it's okay for men to cry. They're human beings and just like women, they have emotions. Crying is just an expression of it. My dad cried when me and my brother were ill. My husband cry when he feels hurt. It is normal and not a sign of weakness, being an irresponsible man is! That's my two cents :)

boys dont cry, but men do. it all matters on what the situation is. if a husband cries just because it is f or weak reasons then that is not good to show the wife. when my wife left to work abroad i was in tears and i was not ashamed to show it. i love her that much and i know i will miss her that crazy. showing tears to wife is not weakness. i know some women will agree to see their man crying when they are living is a big thing. i wont cry for some sissy things but there are good reasons why men needs to show tears to their woman
