Absolutely! There's no need to hide your emotions from your signficant other- in actuality, not being open with your partner can lead to a strain in trust and honesty. Guys don't always need to fulfill the stereotypical "manly" role in the relationship; in other words, guys really don't need to appear strong and stony and unbreakable/unemotional. There's a way to be strong and protective, and also be sensitive and candid towards your partner without "losing" your masculinity. I would love it if my partner were to open up to me more- actually, I would adore it and probably see him as a stronger person. It's hard for people to open up about really sensitive things in their past, and having the strength to do so (and especially to one's significant other) would mean a lot to me and bring us togther in our relationship.

Yes , I wouldn't think any less of my boyfriend if he cried. Tears are a natural response to sadness. If a person becomes so overwhelmed with their emotions then it's inevitable they'll break down at some stage. Its unhealthy to suppress your emotions.
I'd want him to trust me enough to display his emotions in front of me... whether it's negative or positive emotions. I'd comfort him if that's what he needed, or if he wanted space I'd respect that
When my boyfriend cried in front of me, I was glad because it was like he was holding that in since he was young. He always had his gaurd up and act tough, which he is but when he told me about his past he broke down and started crying. I told him for now on I will be his shoulder to cry on because no one should hold back their tears.
If a girl acts like it's not okay, it means she's not a good girlfriend.
It is never ok to cry in front of somebody as it shows weakness and as soon somebody sees a weakness in you they will take advantage of it.
Never ever show emotions to other people especially weak one, xhen people seem them they break you. I dont care what people say, this is the cold hard truth of the world we live in. If you want to cry just find a spot where you afe alone and let your emotions go.
Good luck and I wish you well
Uh, no. If you want to be viewed as a cry baby and weak suck, then go for it. Girls want to see their guy as their emotional rock. Stoic, strong, ready to protect them. Let them emote - that's what they like. Just listen and nod once in awhile They like to chatter, let them.

Yeah, I've hugged complete strangers who cried in front of me. Not everyone is comfortable whith other people being super vulnerable but at the very least, your girlfriend or friends should show some level of compassion. I mean it's pretty selfish to ignore your "loved one's" suffering.
I love it when guys can show emotions and be vulnerable. It'd make me feel like you trust me and I'd feel a lot closer to you.
There is nothing wrong with it, I think it's actually something amazing, your girlfriend will be honored to see a man's tears, and if she loves you, she will be there for you and hold you tight. :)
So again, IT IS OKAY TO CRY SOMETIMES <3Yes it's okay what's also okay is crying over things like a bad day or a small cut. I mean if it hurts you it hurts. You don't have to hide it for your girlfriend
If I was that girl I would be humbled that you trust me enough to show that side of you and it shows that you have a soft side which girls absolutely fall for! at least in my opinion
its totally fine to do so, as long as she's not mocking you and is supportive.
If you're hurt cry if you can't you're with the wrong people
Its a good part of a relationship to me bc it shows you trust them enough to do that
Of course it is. It makes us human. It's not wrong to hide your emotions and I'm sure lots of girls will find that cute
Of course it's okay to cry in front of your girlfriend for anything.
Nah, its not fine to cry infront of anyone just don't let somebody see your weakness boy be a man not a guy.
Yeah it's a great way to let her know that she's a lesbian
Yes... men have emotions too. Shouldn't hold back because you're a man.
Yeah that's totally fine
Your a human you are allowed to show emotion and cry
Plus she's your girlfriendIf it's a serious and deep mistake, i don't him crying in front of me. In fact I'll try my best to comfort him.
