i am a guy who happened to be, i guess, emotional deep inside. recently, we had a conference. and i was given some responsibility. and i thanked the Lord that i had managed to do as much as i could. and for other's support in my endeavor. however, there were really lapses along the way. lapses that others could only just comment and make some notion. how i wanted them to know that i had given the best. but i guess the best for me is not enough for them. and i kept the emotion deep inside. i enjoyed myself to the said conference. and i was having a good time to it until the end. i was happy seeing others who were happy. and i would avoid those who said something about it.
but then, when i went home, memories flashed back. along with the present condition i am into. all i could do was go to my room and hugged my pillow and tears flows. room mates came in, but i dared not allowed them to see it. i didn't want to. i am ashame. it is okey for a guy to cry, but to let others see it, i guess i am not into it.. i cried. and cried. i did not understand, even up to this moment. there is this feeling of wanting some companion or someone to talk to. and so i cried again. maybe, if you would see me, i am smilling, but deep inside, there is something bothering me.. and crying is my best resort to it. i even prayed that i just wanted to cry.. a guy crying, would you want to see it?

To be honest with you I personally dont like seeing ANYONE cry...not men, women, children etc...Not because I'm coldhearted..but in fact I'm the opposite..I can't stand to see ppl hurting, it upsets me and breaks my heart....Now THAT said...Do I think its okay for a guy to cry and show their emotions to others? of course! Men are human too, men feel, men can hurt and so on...and actually I find that a man who CAN cry and isnt ashamed of it or afraid to let it show is a beautiful thing...
As for you feelign so sad and down...Crying is a good way to get the surface pain out but to REALLY make a difference you need to figure out what the source of your pain is and work towards resolving it or healing from it or whatever the case may be ya know..
all the best to you..{{{hugs}}}

During our conference jing, I saw guys crying and its ok. I understand how emotions could bring us to tears. It would mean tears of joy and sometimes tears of wasted things and opportunities and moments. When we cry we get in touch with our emotions as humans and its just being normal. We have done our best but there are times that we really cant please every one. We can hear side comments, but its a constructive approach that we can do better next time.
