Yin How can't understand why I cry. Yin How never cries. Throughout our nine years of relationship, I've only seen him cry not more than 5 times. Quote from my sister, he has "emotional constipation". Crying is a sign of weakness. In the cinema watching Marley and Me, I kept touching his eyes to see whether he cried but they were totally dry. His tear ducts are so under-utilized.
I, on the other hand, cry and cry and cry. To me crying is a way to release all the negative energy within me. And after a good cry, I'm able to jump and around and joke away with my eyes still swollen red and smaller than how small they already are. It's good to cry, I usually feel fresh and light and happy after that, unlike Mr. I'm-always-in-a-bad-mood-from-Mondays-to-Fridays. It's why woman live longer than men (that's what I think anyway).
So is it so wrong to cry?

maybe its just men? wangwei probably cried about 2 times in the 7 yrs we went out. both times coz of me la... :$
i definitely cry more than yin how, but i don't think there's anything wrong with not crying. you just don't. your body obviously doesn't feel the need to. it's not like we're holding back tears. we're just not so sad/touched/angry that our emotions make us cry. we can't cry even if we want to, because we just aren't that worked up over it. hope this makes sense..?
I'm a cry baby. I cry at every given opportunity. I can even self-induce tears (yes, I'm crazy). My bf can't cry. He thinks i over do my crying (hmm..which explains why he is already immuned to my tears!) And I call him emo constipate too.. :P I think men are just weird. But then again, i would rather they be that way than to be a cry baby like me. It would be odd to pass the tissue paper box to them all the time :P
BTW, I cry watching Beauty & the Beast..
haha, me am the queen of crying.. ^^ but i think the reason i can smile so much and be so happy all the time is because i have a healthy crying routine... it annoys me when i get triggered easily, even seeing parents fetch my friends home from hostel, or seeing ppl's happy family birthday photo trigger tat *sniff sniff* in me.. but it's healthy! We are woman, hear us cry~ =p
