I realized years ago that I was crying sometimes to get my way, or to avoid an issue, and I stopped it. It's dishonest. I have a female relative who cries when you try to talk to her about an issue she doesn't want to deal with. I realize with her, it's a defense mechanism, and knowing the things she's been through, I can understand it.

Will they show a repeat of this program? Clinton could turn on the tears, too, as I remember.

Good for you!

I'm pretty screwed up emotionally. I cry at movies, at weddings, at happy ending, when my daughter takes a ribbon or gets honors at 4-H....

Makes me feel like a complete idiot, but I can't help it.

Uggggghhhhh. Yes, Bubba did the water-works, too.

I have seen men weep, ( one is a Veteran who has had a very rough time...he sometimes gets tears in his eyes remembering the old days and some of his buddies who didn't make it back out. ) If it's real, I can cope and I offer comfort.

Bubba's was not real.

Don't know about the program.

Checki this out!

LOL! A site for old men crying!

If I've ever had a slightly jealous bit about my fellow females -- it's this ability of many of them to "cry on whim or demand". I've never had this skill. Ok. I guess I've never had the desire to learn this skill. Okay. Brass tacks. It probably didn't work on my parents when I was little. So, I didn't see it as a viable or productive skill. It really works? Egads, maybe I should join a workshop er somethin..
