Do guys cry when they break up with their, girlfriends??? just wondering!!! Options

[jEllyBeaNs]

i was just wonDering....when guys break up wit hthere girlfriends, or get duMb. do they cry?? i kno u guys get sad but i was jsut wondering!! it seems to me that gurls are the only ones that sho it.

[AngryBaby]

i remember a topic like this from ye back.

some guys cry, most dont. maybe it depends on how much you loved them i dont know.

[*Programmer*]

in a meaningful relationship we do....we wait till after the conversation or phonecall to let the emotions set in. -- and any other guy who says otherwise knows there lieing...

[Shahin]

Depends on the guy more than the relationship. I have yet to cry upon breaking up wit one of my girlfriends. There are just more important things in life.It ain't worth crying for.

[heyyfrankie]

why would girls be the only ones allowed to cry?

btw, your topics annoy me. ;\

[AngryBaby]

lol ^ i knew someone would say that soon jelly

[loljuliana]

o_o why not just ask a guy friend?

[Chii]

why wouldn't they? everyone cries.

i know for a fact that my first ex did.

[jEllyBeaNs]

why would girls be the only ones allowed to cry?

btw, your topics annoy me. ;\

i din't say that girls are the only 1's allowed to cry!!! if my topics annoy u sooo much y r u always leavin comments on my topics!!! so go off snd go bother sumbodie else.

[*iNyCxShoRT*]

Most don't. But if it was a long and serious one, its a good chance.

[AngryBaby]

i din't say that girls are the only 1's allowed to cry!!! if my topics annoy u sooo much y r u always leavin comments on my topics!!! so go off snd go bother sumbodie else. 

lol go jells!

[coconutter]

All the boys I went out left me crying, it's kind of pathetic.

[Nicolatofu]

Guys are heartless; it depends on how serious the relationship. Usually they don't like to cry IN FRONT of people though.

thats kinda how i feel about it. the only things thats cry wothy for me is: death and something really sad/bad happening in my family. we're not heartless though i dont cry for a breakup, but guys do think about you guys alot and are depressed for a long time. and there is alot of deep thinking involved. only in certain situations does that get to the point of crying. you dont necessarily have to cry just to show how much u miss/love/appreciate the signicant other you lost.

[iheartjohn]

GUYS DON'T HAVE FEELINGS!!!

[silver-rain]

I suppose it depends on how serious the relationship was. I know that my ex probably didn't cry when he broke up with me, and according to my boyfriend, he didn't cry over his exes either...

[latinprep12]

well i hate break-ups...i really do alot...and well i really never broke up with a girl...they cheated on me or i moved away or was to far to carry on the relationship so we always decided to together..but if i break up with a girl..i will say im sorry and cry my heart out..because if i asked her out to begin with and ended up breaking her heart and leaving her...i will feel bad and drown in tears

p.s. no im not gay..im just really into relations and love is a big thing...i take it serious

[racoons > you]

DUBYA TEE EFF, Oh EM EFF GEE, LYK< CRYING MAKES YOU GAY!!!!! !eleven!

pssh.

oh god.

i know i was kidding, but that still makes my skin crawl

[misoshiru]

why would girls be the only ones allowed to cry?

btw, your topics annoy me. ;\

i agree.

why wouldnt they cry? they might not cry in public, but does that mean that they dont have emotions at all?

[starlette]

DUBYA TEE EFF, Oh EM EFF GEE, LYK< CRYING MAKES YOU GAY!!!!! !eleven!

pssh.

oh god.

i know i was kidding, but that still makes my skin crawl

That totally made my morning


I know my boyfriend and I have had a lot of ups and down over the past 2 years, and when we break it off (temporarily of course) or if we get in a big fight or if somthing goes wrong, we both tend to shed a lot of tears...And I don't cry. I'm kinda heartless, he cries more than I do. But I think it shows maturity when I guy can show his emotions. Guys who hide them are trying too hard to be macho and they are just going to end up hurting themselves.

[Tiffany_Prep_Gir...]

my friend broke up with her ex and when that happened, he cried all week.now, he has a new gurl.

[lpxxfaintxx]

i cried

[demolished]

Guys are heartless; it depends on how serious the relationship. Usually they don't like to cry IN FRONT of people though.

Nope. They are not heartless.

[*xcaitlinx*]

Aww...i remember back in 6th grade i was in a serious relationship...and i broke up with him during lunchtime and he started crying! i felt so bad. we got back together like the next day.

[AngryBaby]

dont always fall for the old crying trick sometimes haha^

[*xcaitlinx*]

lol i think he was seriously crying though. it was way back .... i hope his tears were sincere!

[AngryBaby]

me too cayte, me too lol :but dont be too suuuure! hehe:

[literemix24]

I don't think most guys cry, after the break up, they'd probably be really sad for a while, but then..I don't know. Then again, some guys are more sensitive than others, so they might cry.

[latinprep12]

I ...because im really into relations and blah...so yeah

im a touchy guy

[demolished]

lol i think he was seriously crying though. it was way back .... i hope his tears were sincere!

'

So, still together ?

[*xcaitlinx*]

hell no... i barely talk to him anymore. he's a pothead now.

[GRRRtyler]

yeah i cryed when we broke up for like 20 mins. .
she said i was the worst boyfriend to my face.
witch made me cry. but i got her back and made her cry!

[TheMadGuy]

if ur sum kinda pu**y

[x3_ken]

GUYS DON'T HAVE FEELINGS!!!

of course we do!

[*mipadi*]

GUYS DON'T HAVE FEELINGS!!!

We do when it's something important, like our team loses the pennant, or we can't find the remote control.

[racoons > you]

if ur sum kinda pu**y

why are these people allowed to live?

[latinprep12]

^ lmao....well i wonder the same...well i was kidding when i said i do...a break-up is something that you dont cry over but you take a little time out and probably go to your room and think it over...instead of crying a river...thats what i will do

[AngryBaby]

We do when it's something important, like our team loses the pennant, or we can't find the remote control.

exactly

[latinprep12]

haha i just read ^ what he wrote....the remote control?...lmao

[feesh]

I almost did when my ex broke up with me. But of course I havent cried in 3 or 4 years, not even when one of my relatives died.

[EddieV]

I cried when I just thought of breaking up with her, although when I did, I didn't cry....

[latinprep12]

I cried when I just thought of breaking up with her, although when I did, I didn't cry....

cant say it any better and i dont know why..but the same with me...i remember i was dating this girl for 5 months and well her bestfriend told me she had plans to break up....so i went home, and i crying and repeating to myself "i cant lose her..i cant lose her" "why lord" and yada yada yada....well when she pulled me aside..i was like ohh ok...um ok bye..and then the first girl i say i said "hey whats yo' name" and then i got my love live back on track

[racoons > you]

^
max, that font is insanely annoying

[latinprep12]

Sorry bro...i wanted to write it differ, but couldnt think of a good looking font...is there a topic or a place that show you all the fonts we can use...i hate the ones that are in the drop down list

[Anonymous82]

I cried for a week -__- go figure

[fameONE]

My ex cheated on me, I let her go like I was firing somebody and did it with the coolness of an icecube.

[AngryBaby]

there ya go^ haha

[lexaa621]

my eyes watered up but i didnt exactly cry i guess
it was long distance so we were both got choked up over the phone while we talked about it
yeah....
it actually happened a couple hours ago. meh. long distance truly sucks unless you can see each other once a month or so. but we lived about 1800 miles apart...so yeah. i'll shut up.

:edit:
nevermind. i just talked to her on the phone. i definitely cried.

:edit AGAIN:
nevermind. we're back together. lol.

that was weird.

[*reflection*]

some do.
especially if the relationship was special

[FREEcandies]

Yes, guys do cry. You aren't human if you don't cry about anything at all. If you don't cry, then how are you capable of smiling and frowning? It's just society has put such an emphasis specifically on guys crying that many think they can't or shouldn't or shouldn't let others see.

First, you should never stop yourself from crying. BUT there are times when you shouldn't let someone see you cry. And that is when you're going through a breakup. As a guy, you should never let a girl see you cry when you guys are breaking up. When girls see a guy cry (over them), it tugs at their heart like crazy and it makes them want to stay. However, they're only staying because they feel bad, not because they want to. If you want to find out how they really feel, don't cry to them. Go home and cry to your pillow.

Losing a loved one is hard, and crying is sometimes the best thing you can do when you have no one to talk to. Talk to your pillow and let your tears be the words. In time, you will get tired of crying and life will be better.

PS. Just because a guy moves on with his life (has a new girl) after he cried over one does not necessarily mean his tears are insincere. It jus means he's moved on with his life.

[dahoonpride]

felt tears in swell up in my eyes...but i don't think they ever dropped. i tend to just stay really quite and still when i'm really emotional....i think most guys do.

[sheepy]

i guess it really depends on how serious the relationship was.. but dear, boys do cry.

[ClaudelGFX]

I guess guys crys more then girls. (since they are changing their boyfriends like their socks)

[doork]

i guess guys dont cry in front of us doesnt means that they dont cry .. its jus that they dont want us girls to be thinking that they are a sissy .. come on now wouldnt you think your bf a sissy if he cries in front of you ?

[steezahh]

^ So you've used it

//edit Why do I always start a new page, at the wrong times?

i noticed that! lol... i cried when i got rejected by a guy because i was 1 inch taller than him. Thats ok now tho.

[Eryi]

I haven't cried in any of my past relationships.

[Emo Junkie]

Yeah, y'know... I don't get that. It seems as though girls are the only ones that get hurt in break ups. I know it sounds evil, but what would I know. I'm a girl and whenever I've broken up with a guy, I've been torn apart and they tend to just... shrug it off and get on with their lives whilst we isolate ourselfs and feel like we'll never ever be able to move on - like it's the end of the world. lmfao.


Well, if guys really must know *shruggles*

[demolished]

i noticed that! lol... i cried when i got rejected by a guy because i was 1 inch taller than him. Thats ok now tho.

omg, it's only one inch.

[nsmx1korean]

depends on how serious it was, ive never cried but grieved

[Ington]

Thats perfectly true.

I think I almost cried once. It was kind of a hurt beyond crying. The kind where you find out your girlfriend of two weeks agreed to go out with another guy without even thinking about how she was giong out with you. Yeah.

[ecargnmyst]

guys cry. lol..and alot of them are really depressed after breaking up...alot of my guy friends have come to me feeling insecure b/c they just got dumped and theyre all depressed and crying..but the ones i know cry silently and theyre ashamed of it so u cant realy tell theyre crying until you look closely

[Looow]

DUBYA TEE EFF, Oh EM EFF GEE, LYK< CRYING MAKES YOU GAY!!!!! !eleven!

pssh.

oh god.

i know i was kidding, but that still makes my skin crawl

rofl i freaking love you james. ahahahah


Uhm yeah they cry. Uh.

[*RiC3xBoy*]

Depends how serious the relationship was.

[Vozedale]

I remember crying hard in a relationship in which I was deeply in love. Remember calling up my best friend right after, don't think I even said Hi or anything before just bursting out in tears.

The one and only guy I dated was a really senisitive guy (I'm bisexual). He cried when he found out he was in love with me and i with him. Cried when I broke up with him because I wasn't sure how I felt, and cried sometimes after that when he got confused and just wanted me back. It's been 3 or 4 months ago, and I think both have really strong feelings for each other and are still communicating, but we haven't been back together. The quickest start in a relationship I've ever seen, we fell in love literally over night, and broke up the next day.

I think the whole masculine-retardo stereotype and role of men is ridiculous. I'm sure women go through more physical pain in life, but I think guys go through more emotional pain, mostly because they don't have as many exits because our society's view on masculinity is stupid. How often do guys go to their guy friend to talk about something they are upset about? Plus, the not being able to cry in front of someone is stupid idea, too, besides the crying in front of someone and making them feel guilty thing, that makes sense. But that is your choice, if you get that from girls a lot, do the same thing back. Do it and then reject them. You guys are mostly young and in young relationships, when you get into serious ones, it isnt going to make a difference whether you cry or not, the woman probably won't change her mind.

I had to learn how to cry, because for me, I had to let it go. From about 14 to 16, I underwent depression, and I rarely did it ever come out in tears. It came out in sitting completely still, not saying anything, not doing anything. But towards the end of the depression I went through, I had something a little more expressive, convulsions. I only had one episode and I lost consciousness, and it was in the car with my mom sitting right beside me, she was driving, not me. I remember when I was 17 I would get really upset about something at school, and would stop myself from crying. The result wasn't good, by the time I got home, I couldn't cry, it was all anger. I laid down in bed, and I would lay there for awhile. My emotions would build up, and instead of crying I had fits, i would burst out violently. I would kick and hit and punch in every direction. I was conscious during these, but lost control over my body. I had two of these episodes, on the second my mom heard me, she thought i had fallen down the stairs, and we have a long staircase with walls on both sides. Personally, I don't know about you other guys or what you girls think guys should do, but I prefer crying.

Another thing i want to say about macho-retardism, is that i think it takes a tougher man to stand out against stupid things. A guy in my biolgy class my freshman year in high school, drank some chemical that was used to preserve fetal pigs for dissecting, he had to go to the hospital and have his stomach pumped. And I don't mean in just stunts like this, but any. I wouldn't do that for a dollar, and I'm sure that isnt the reason the guy did it either. He was probably dared by guys, and did it so he looked cool and tough. Well, I think it takes a tougher guy to not be so assertive and willing to be a complete imbecile for his pride. Don't tell people push you around and decide what you can and can't do just because you are a man, same goes for women. Guys get hurt, guys get discriminated against (more and more frequently nowadays), guys have rights issues, guys get sexual coerced and raped, as well as sexually assaulted in many different forms, and guys have a suicide rate, across all ages, that averages to 7 times that of women. A guy crying in public should be ashamed, but not of himself, but of our society's ridiculous stereotypes of a man.

[AngryBaby]

god damn^ you actually think anyone is gonna read that?

[Vozedale]

That one is about my norm posting. Want a truly long one, read my hazing post in debate.

[Levy2k6]

Uhh.. me and my was gf broke up yesterday.. 6 Months and 1 day. we never fought or anything and it sorta just ended liked that.

yeah guys cry.. but that's because it was her..

i took care of it myself even tho i told my friends that we did. nothing else about it. i like to keep to myself now.

[moorepocket]

everyone cries when they break up. It was a meaninful time, and they might never find one like it again.

[_suzie_]

''A guy crying in public should be ashamed, but not of himself, but of our society's ridiculous stereotypes of a man.''

great post. i totally agree, there's just as much pressure and discrimination on men as with women.

Ive never seen an ex cry when we've broken up...but yeah dudes do cry. i was talkin to a friend of mine a few days back, he's just broken up with his girlfriend, and yeah he's pretty damn upset.

[racoons > you]

god damn^ you actually think anyone is gonna read that?

i read it.

it was good.

[Levy2k6]

guys can fight themselves from crying in public so u might see them tear.... they go all out when their in the room tho... i would know.

[Lyrical Lies]

it depends how serious the relationship, if the guy only asked her out just for the heck of it they probably would have no feeling for her. if he really liked her he would prolly cry

[Vozedale]

Well, if I ever had any man to look up to...

Gospel of John, Chapter 11:35, Jesus wept. The shortest verse in the Christian New Testament.

[michelina0kudelk...]

Thats perfectly true.

I think I almost cried once. It was kind of a hurt beyond crying. The kind where you find out your girlfriend of two weeks agreed to go out with another guy without even thinking about how she was giong out with you. Yeah.

Two weeks? I would think something like two months, probably more would make something hurt that much.............

[Vozedale]

Two weeks? I would think something like two months, probably more would make something hurt that much.............

Not necessarily, people become attached at different rates and times in relationships. Could be years before you really feel close to that person, could be overnight.

[xheartbroken_chi...]

I think that it's cute if a guy would cry over a girl.

[NyCaZnShOrtAii]

crying ... yep i would =]

[Rachel]

Well I know my boyfriend cried when he broke up with me. Cried so much that he realized he couldn't be without me. We are back together. whee.

[steezahh]

why would girls be the only ones allowed to cry?

btw, your topics annoy me. ;\

ahaha for some reason i knew you would say that. thats frankie for ya huh.. ahha..

[vash1530]

ive never cried after a break up but i dont know about other guys

[AnnahhbeL]

he cried.

[xSilentxEchox]

I never have, but my friend kesha broke up with her bf, and he has all her friends being mean to her, which is really pathetic. I'm sure he cried a lot, but then again, he had to explain to her what low lights were....and you KNOW you're strange when you have to explain styling to a girl.

[*mipadi*]

I'm sure he cried a lot, but then again, he had to explain to her what low lights were....and you KNOW you're strange when you have to explain styling to a girl.

Wwwwwwhat?

[EddieV]

I cry just thinking about her doing something bad with me.

[Levy2k6]

me and megan ( my ex gf) broke up like a month and a week ago.. yeah i cried about her.. i stopped after like 4 weeks tho.. i didnt go all out but u know.. tear and stuff.. i didn't want to lose her and stuff but yeah.. i did it only in private but yeah..

i <3d her.. i still do.. but what can u do.. lol
