When's the last time you cried?

[Nori]

I take back what I said in that smoking thread, your a jerk.

[Saz]

Sorry, that was insensitive.

[Tobias]

A while ago, just pressure in life building up.

On a related note, is anyone else nonplussed when people die? Its not shock, or denial, its just a complete lack of caring for me. No change in emotion. I've had uncles aunts, grandparents die... and I felt nothing. I felt sorry for my mother. Thats it, and I was even close with some of them.

I can only see myself crying over my parents and nephews.

[Saz]

When my grandad died, although I was upset, I had no urge to cry. I felt awkward at the funeral, everyone was crying and hugging me, expecting me to be really upset, and I didn't know how I was supposed to react. He died several years ago, a really friendly, laid back guy, I still feel slightly guilty I was more upset. I remember one of my sisters actually asking me why I didn't cry when I found out he died, I didn't really have an answer.

[Whompt]

I'm the sameway, Tien. I think it might be some kind of emotional protective device. Or maybe I just feel like the person never really died. As long as I keep him/her alive in my heart, they're always gonna be with me. In my actions and thoughts, their influence survives and in a small way, they're still alive.

[Blind Man]

I feel like I could right now but no dice.

Yes. Unfortunately. More than once. I find it a little bit disturbing.

Sorry, Spence.

I haven't cried since I was, like, seven.

I don't cry either, but I don't think it's a good thing. Instead of crying, I bottle up stuff, then I release it all in a big anger explosion that doesn't involve crying. I usually end up just brooding, but not like an emo or anything, because I'm never self-loathing, and I'd never hurt myself in any way.

I have cried after I was seven, though.

And I can relate to what Tien said, too. I sometimes feel a bit detached, because I don't cry when people die.

I think the last time I legitimately cried was when my ten year old dog was put to sleep, and I was holding her as she got the injection. She still felt and looked alive, but you could see the spark leave her eyes. I sort of cradled her head and cried awhile, then shook it off later.

[Bojack]

You have to learn to let your emotions pass through you. Bottling them up is not healthy at all. Unless you're a boxer on a regular basis or something.

[Raditzu]

About six months ago. It was actually on my birthday. No idea why I started crying and I feel really silly about it now.

*shrug*

que sera sera

[Kirano]

Last week. The issue with my laptop got worse when I finally managed to fix it, or so I had thought, only to discover all of my programs malfunctioned. Only windows media player works and why the fuck would I only want that? To makes things worse, nobody understands what I'm going through. Dell didn't do shit to help the situation. The whole thing just brought tears of fraustration.

[Paragus]

I cried when my grandma died about 2 yrs ago. I felt the same way as all of you guys, it just didnt effect me. I actually felt upset that i wasn't crying like everyone else. But then the actual funeral came and it just sank in that i would never see her again and out came the water works.

@Rad: Whatever will be, will be right?

[Raditzu]

@Rad: Whatever will be, will be right?

Translates, literally, to "what will be will be." So yeah. A personal motto of mine. And being in Spanish makes it that much better.

When you work with computers, that tends to happen a lot.

I am so looking forward to getting my degree in comp sci. D=

Speaking of which, I came very close to crying today. I keep cutting class, not doing my homework, and generally fucking up my life. I have no idea why, I just have been doing it a lot. I really think people advising me to go away to college and everything is scaring me, and I am subconsciously doing everything I can to not grow up. I really don't want to grow up, or face the real world that will almost certainly eat me alive.

[Orion]

It's still fun and rewarding. You just tend to cry when you've worked on the same problem for four hours and nothing works. =D

Or spend 3 days trying to recode your login script only to find out you're using the wrong password.

HAHAHA.

My italian teacher use to say it all the time, except Che Sara, Sara. So i just figured it was the same.

HAHAHA.

Or doing pHp coding and realising that the only reason the code doesn't work properly is because you mixed up <?php with <php?.

Che Sara, Sara

I hate that song and phrase so much.
