I think I know when next I might cry. That will be when my first child is born and it will be tears of joy.

Yeah my cousin, she gave birth to two twin boys. Her husband was crying more than she was delivering them.

[quote author=Ruby_Pearl link=topic=156197.msg2590676#msg2590676 date=1217547851]I know it's good for a man to show emotions once in a while bla bla.

But a crying man is such a turn off! ugh! suck it up!!![/quote]not all the time.

chika98:
How old are you again?

Why would you even be with someone you consider " an evil heifer"? All these internet tough and strong hearted men you lot potray on here. . . I hope that's not how y'all are in real life because too bad.

Know they are ALL the complete opposite.

HCH3COO:
I beg your pardon?

Nna, just answer the question.

HCH3COO:
Men cry too but not as easily.

Please elaborate.

Im a man ko, don't cry ni. Blah Blah Blah. you guys know you cry but are like me who chooses not to cry in front of people but privately. No offense i don't see the point in crying in front of a crowd or anyone. It usually makes the situation worse.

chika98:
I loathe it when people hang up on someone. That's very disrespectful.

Yeah i think it is just heartless. But then again why would i be crying on the phone?

StephenP:
Naw . . .

Stop lying like a rug. You same men who claim to not cry will cry the loudest and the most dramatic like when a mother takes away candy from a toddler.

Hannibal, if you are in a relationship with a woman who still says "meanie" and cries over something like that, you need to rethink your relationship.

Pataki:
Do women really cry?

I seriously doubt it. Women have perfected the facade of nothing fazes them again. It is a crazy world nowadays.

are we not human?

Hannibal you have a heart of stone.

[quote author=blue-sky link=topic=156197.msg2590496#msg2590496 date=1217545536]yes private tears are the best

sometimes those words can be soothing, and are words of sympathy or encouragement. I know they may seem annoying at times, becoz only u know how it feels, but sometimes it shows that others care around u.[/quote]For me if you really care, you will leave me alone. Let me cry, scream, yell, whateva. That is the only way i can truly be oka. But by you being there trying to hug me or say something, it just annoys me and it makes me bottle up all that emotions then let it out. Because there is not really you can say that will make me feel better.

eldee:
But come to think of it, why waste you time crying
When you can easily bottle it, punch walls, get drunk, play b-ball, etc
C'mon . . . we've got egos, we need to feed 'em
Some emotional displays are romantic, crying is most def not one of 'em

Once you bottle it, eventually you will burst in ways you can't control yourself. trust me.

chamotex:
no woman, no cry!!

stop lying. you know you go through four boxes of kleenex.

LadyT:
Oyinye private tears are the best you can really let go.

You know if you make the mistake of crying in public Nigerians are like "Ah thats ok jare"

No its not Ok tell I cry and my eyes are bloodshot and swollen!  

I let go alright. seriously i do. But yeah i hate when people try to make you feel better with lame lines like "it will be okay" "everything is alright". That just annoys me even more and adds insult to injury. Just me be alone, let go of my emotions, and i will be okay. I don't need anybody to help me get my composure back.

LadyT:
I even cry when I'm angry I can't hit anyone so I either scream into a pillow or I cry.

Men I feel bad for you.  It must be hard when you see a woman cry and not know what to do! LMAO

I don't know why more men don't cry? And even when they do cry its silent tears.

Man when I cry i do the whole sighing and moaning. boo hoo indeed

Sad  

I wish i had your tolerance. But men are taught from their youth to never cry." Stay strong. What does crying solve." so when you hear that over and over again you become it.

StephenP:
Ha! You cry when you hear a song. That's the lowest one can possibly go.

Oka it is a very lovely song. so quiet you. It really touches me.

ibkaye:
strong girl

but sometimes, tears cannot be held onto, there are times where I am about to cry but I don't want it to show at a certain moment but the tears just come puring down, well everyone is different I guess, that's cool for you

I just don't like crying in front of people cause you start a scene. And when im crying, i don't want to hear people trying to comfort me i just get annoyed. And if i start to cry and im around people, i just suck it up and think of something else.

eldee:
You're most def not talking bout African men
We're not even allowed to cry when we lose our immediate relatives
If that doesn't release the tears, what will?

Some of us don't even know HOW to cry anymore
Believe it or not, Nollywood directors slice onions to force actors to cry

The ones who claim they don't, are the ones who cry the loudest.

ibkaye:
emotions.

so, what if all of these things happen where people are?

I would hold it in. and wait till im alone.

StephenP:
So you'll cry if he forgets your birthday because that's mad disrespect isn't it?

not that kind of disrespect.

StephenP:
You're just saying that. Don't worry like Alicia Keys, I won't tell your secrets.

You are so silly. But on the real, i wouldn't cry. i would be upset and angry but i wouldn't shed a tear.

Im not the kind who cares in front of people.

I cry when i watch Titanic and John Q. Also for Invisible Children.
I cry when when i hear the song "Tell Me What You Want Me To Do" by Tevin Campbell
I cry when i see my siblings crying.
I cry when my father use to yell at me.
I cry when i lose an arguement that i could have won.
I cry when im truly disrespected.

LadyT:
Please we females can cry over anything depending on the time of the month!

I have been known to cry over soaps and cry when I lose debates.

I even cried when I was hungry and sick and he didnt seem to care.

Sometimes I want to slap myself over the crap I cry about

You speak some truth.

StephenP:
So it's your birthday, you wake up feeling like a new person and your man doesn't call you, doesn't send you any gift, nothing at all. Lie to me and tell me you wouldn't cry?

I wouldn't cry. He doesn't deserve my tears.

Chat2MeBac:
@Onyinye
I once caught my ex in tears. The goat lied and said he had "pink eyes" Son of gun's eyes were as dark as midnight, hmmmmm Men,

Yeah pink eye or something is in his eye.lol.

[quote author=blue-sky link=topic=155971.msg2590276#msg2590276 date=1217543483]same here! can't imaging marrying a guy living in nigeria. [/quote]Same here too!

femzy:
Cry Ko Cry Ni

Women are to wicked so it doesn't move me 1 bit.

So you have proclaimed that you have a heart of stone?

Chat2MeBac:
Onyinye sweetie, you know how men can front. They cry like babies then lie about their eyes have problems,

Very Very True!!

Chat2MeBac:
@Ibkaye, huney I am good , Was sent to the "slammer" again. This time no reason. Funny they never banned me when I am being bad, ONLY when I try to be nice , It's life oo. what's a girl to do na? I am happy you are doing well and you look pretty as ever. keep it up lovey,

@topic
See all these yeye men on the thread chatting nonsense. Tell the world the truth. Men cry more than ladies, The thing is we  do it in public while they run home to their Mamas

You speak of truth. Truly Hilarious!!!

StephenP:
LOL!! Dang you ladies always be coming at us foul. That was hella mean. We have feelings too.

@topic,
if I'm the reason for her pain like[b] I forgot her birthday [/b]or something of that magnitude, I feel real bad and I'll apologize and try to wrap her in my arms and comfort her, you know, try to get on her good side.

if she cheated on me and I broke up with her and she's crying because she feels bad for what she did, then I'll tell her I've forgiven her but I just cannot be with her. No emotions here.

if she is crying because she's scared or doesn't know what to do, I'll feel like I have to encourage her and show her I'm there to support her whether she succeeds or not.

if she's crying because she's insecure, well, that's just too bad. No emotions here.

I don't think i know chic who will cry over a birthday, anniversary, maybe. That last part has me at a lost.

[quote author=pussy_full link=topic=156197.msg2590189#msg2590189 date=1217542417]i feel like slapping you - poster.[/quote]Because it is not about sex, abi?

SAM MILLA:
If she touch my beer , she will cry all over again after she finish crying.

Whoa, is that a physical threat?

nalijah07:
@ SAM MILLA  - What if you were at fault?

Should she then drink the beer until you go tumbling to the floor?

Personally if im crying, i rather not you cry. It just makes matters worse. And i rather you not say anything just give me a sec to get my composure.

SAM MILLA:
Depending on whats the cause.
If its the death of her mother or someone dear to her, i cry with her.
If she has done something stupid and i blamed her for it (like cheating on me) thus making her cry, i sit back on the couch and drink beer and watch her tumble on the floor,

Mean much!!

HCH3COO:
If it was my fault I'll apologize after the sex.

Oh acid.

Chat2MeBac:
Most men are insensitive, So asking them such a question is a waste of respiration.  Even if you just told them your dad passed, instead of a hug or some comforting words, they will ask' so when are you guys going to return him to the earth?"  That's why I "love"  white men.  They will take you to Bora Bora to moan and top it off with Pink diamond to help ease the pain away  

Truly Questionable!!!

Wow some of you are sounding real caring right now
