How long has it been since you cried?

I last cried about 3 years ago when my uncle died.

1999, when Dad died.

For when someone suggests this question be added to the poll: “Male”.

Good thinkin’. Male here too.

Last Thursday. I’ve been having a little trouble with homesickness lately.

(Female)

Well, I teared up yesterday afternoon when I was attending a senior banquets and all the graduating girls started weeping. But it wasn’t open crying, I just smeared some mascara.

I think I last cried over some stupid movie (Babe: Pig in the City?, Futurama: Jurrasic Bark?) or commercial which, of course, wasn’t really the reason I cried. I was just in a crappy, hormonal mood and the maudlin movie/commercial was the catalyst.

This morning.

(It’s been a rough month or so.)

Last night. That onion I was cutting was pretty damn potent.

I last cried about 25 years ago. I am male, in my early 40s.

I came close about 7 years ago when my son was in the NICU after he was born.

About 3 and 1/2 years, rough times post college.

Last time I had a headache? I can’t remember :slight_smile:

Yesterday. There is too much going on in my life right now + PMS.

Not long. Almost certainly less than a month.

I have a tedency to cry over books–generally books that are depressing in the beginninng/middle but I know there will be a happy ending. (If I don’t think there will be a happy ending I don’t usually read the book).

Female.

Excluding stuff like this and the occasional moist eye from cheap movie sentimentality ( I’m disgustingly girly that way sometimes ), maybe a couple of tears when my former pet passed away ~3 years ago.

The last genuine sobfest? Maybe when I was eleven or twelve and someone inadvertently poked a sore point re: my parents semi-recent divorce. Rather caught me by surprise. I’ve never been much of a crier - less machismo that a stoic personality ( stupid cheap sentimentality gene asidse ).

Yesterday. PMS (I’m sensing a trend in the thread) and various other crap.

I cried watching Children of Men this morning. Under normal circumstances, I probably would have teared up a little, but being pregnant and exhausted, there was some sobbing. Yay, hormones!

Last evening, when I remembered my poor kitty dying of a ruptured spleen while I was trying to drive her to the vet after her bloodcurdling yowl. :frowning:

About a week ago. Hormones. Can’t recall the last time I cried over something real. Not even at my grandmother’s funeral. (Female)

Yesterday (female, age 20).

Last night. Female.

Honestly, I think I’ve cried more in the last month than I have in the last five years. It hasn’t been a good month.

A couple of weeks ago at my father’s funeral.

What do you mean by cry? Weep, or genuine sobs? Cause I have tears in my eyes every month at my period…it’s just an emotional low for me. Really cry? About 3-4 weeks ago, over a money issue of all things. :frowning:
