+1 yYes, my boyfriend is not good at talking when he's not okay and he's only cried in front of me 3 times in 2 years. First time was when His 93 year old, blind grandma was sick in hospital when covid first started so he couldn't see her or find out how she was. My boyfriend loves his grandma and he broke down in tears and told me he just wanted her to be okay. Luckily she's a lot better now.
Second time was when he wasn't earning much at work and then his car broke down. He was really worried about money at the time and he wanted to take me out for the day. He thought he'd let me down and id be disappointed but he wasn't earning enough to see me as often.
Third time was when he was really ill and we were asleep in bed together and he woke up in serious pain and couldn't move. I also cried too because i knew he was bad but id never seen him that bad before and it scared me. I just held tight and tried to carm him down as much as possible and help him ignore the pain.
I don't know if it's all to do with covid but it's been a hard year for both of us and it's just made us stronger as a couple to be able to comfort and support each other and share are most personal feelings with each other. Him crying in front of me shows me he's trusts more than most people and is comfortable being himself around me.32 Reply- +1 y

+1 yWell I don't see it happen often so if a guy ever cries to me (which is like 4 times 2 being the same guy), I see it as them trusting me immensely, and after I try to comfort them I keep them as close to me as possible so their heavy hearts are never left alone again.

I wouldn’t really call it “special”, but it is a different level of trust and comfort. Men are taught to never show emotion as it shows weakness. So for a man to cry in front of someone could mean that they trust you more than they trust anybody else and that they are not afraid to show you that side of them, especially since most men don’t have someone to hear them out and be able to show their vulnerability

+1 yIt means he's a beta-cuck pansy-ass. If a guy shows weakness to his woman she instantly loses respect. If this goes on long enough, she shuts down sexually, cheats bails or any combination of these.
You don't even know what makes women tick, let alone men.
Ya, it's special alright. Special snowflake.
You're projecting again.30 Reply

+1 yIf he never cries normally and he only cried in front of you, then yes, it is VERY special
100 Reply It depends on the guy the same way it depends on the woman. Some people are just emotional and sensitive crying over cute animal clips. So it is different. Some men/ women if they shed a tear that would hold so much weight depending on their personality.

+1 yIt means that he is not afraid to show his emotions and shading tears ib front of a girl.
by the way many men wouldn't like to cry in front of women, because it would show how weak they are. by the way hey if he cries in front of you consider it being lucky.20 Reply 2.4K opinions shared on Dating topic. Yes it mean something has touched him in away like no other something that meant something to him that he can not change or fix and what ever it might be ,,, it hurts and the pain it deep
20 ReplyWell, as we're kinda influenced by society regarding the "you shouldn't cry cause you're a man" thing, most of us, rarely shed any tears and it means that he reached "the point at which the cup overflowed" if he's drowning in problems or in some cases, when he's overjoyed about something.
So anyway i wouldn't use the word special as least not when it comes to shedding tears because of a problem or something.10 Reply- 2.8K opinions shared on Dating topic.
+1 yYes. He has enough trust in you to be very open about his innermost feelings, fears and doubts. He has - momentarily at least- put aside his "macho facade". Be there for him.

+1 yYeah, I’d say it is. It shows that he trusts you on another level and is aware that you won’t judge him. And that’s a lot to be said about anybody, in my opinion.

+1 ySpecial? When someone cries it because they are sad or upset about something. What's so special in that? I don't get it.

Guys don't cry easily. So it is "special" if he does it at all, especially next to a girl in my opinion. Probably sees her as the caring type tbh.

For crying out loud every time, that's probably why you think it's not so special.

Honestly I don't consider crying a special thing if my boyfriend cries next to me which happened in the past I just supported him because he was going through a phase that's it. I didn't find it special at all.

01 Reply 506 opinions shared on Dating topic. Na it just proves how much a pansy he is. Crying in front of a man takes balls
10 ReplyDepends on the guy. I'd say its either a moment of sensitivitiy or maybe more on the manipulative side. Although in most cases I'd say the former.
10 Reply1.1K opinions shared on Dating topic. Absolutely. Some say it is a true test of loyalty for both parties.

All emotions are weak but crying is the weakest13 Reply- +1 y
That's a very wrong approach to emotions. Expressing emotions to the right person was never a weakness.
Opinion Owner+1 yAlways has been, in ancient history being emotional would see you dumped over the side of a cliff
now it's embraced how pathetic we need a major event to turn the soyboys into stew- +1 y
@Psychoanalytical Any man who cries or shows any weakness in front of his women will immediately be looked upon with contempt. Regardless of what women SAY they want, no woman wants to see her man cry, full stop.
Anonymous(30-35)+1 yIt's pathetic. And I think most women know that, even if they're too polite to admit it.
