Yes. It's a normal and healthy way of expressing the grief at the loss.
Guys are statistically significantly more likely to commit suicide when heart broken as well.

guys do more than cry.
We die inside. A truly broken heart will change us forever.

It's funny how some guys and gals think men and women are different species or something. Why don't realize that people are people and are capable of having the same feelings and emotions? The only thing is, every individual is different.
I had girlfriends from the time I was 16. There was only one that I truly fell in love with. I didn't know what love was before then. She was 30, I was 37, and we practically lived together for over a year. She loved me, too.
At some point, we separated for reasons that are complicated, but didn't have anything to do with cheating or meanness or anything.
Without her, I felt like my guts had literally been kicked. Sometimes I doubled over and almost felt nauseous. And yes, sometimes I bawled so hard that my head ached. It felt worse than the death of a loved one. I had never felt such pain.
It took close to a year for me to pull myself together and get back out there. I didn't get over her, but I realized that we were not meant to be life partners, so I moved on and met my future wife two years later.
We've been married for over 25 years, but I still love and will never forget that one particular girlfriend.
She reconnected with me on Facebook about 20 years after we separated. We spoke on the phone a few times. I was overjoyed to be in touch and follow how she was doing. About five years later, I read that she had passed away from a sudden medical problem at age 55.
I cried over that news several times over the next few days. A brilliant light had been extinguished. It left a hole in my heart that will never heal.
We're not robots. Enough failed relationships and we just get better at compartmentalizing the relationship to avoid emotional issues in the future. Women who don't understand that we're human and fail to treat us as such are a pretty common culprit.
Guys break… when they break they show it… when men are told not to cry it’s generally expected they won’t cry and little shit. Man up don’t be a pussy. Awe did that hammer hurt your poor little finger?
Don’t cry cause the woman didn’t choose you though you might cry if she leaves you if your attached.I didn't, it felt like I almost would, I ended up just sleeping, maybe if I was put in a situation where I had to talk about it it'd have been a different story, I'm not sure though, after all last time I've cried that wasn't physical pain related was when I was 11
Lol obviously…….. if guys kill themselves when heart broken obviously they’ll cry!
Of course we cry back in 2012 I was in a relationship and I found out my girlfriend was lying to me about so many different things and everything was over before we got married which I'm really happy about. And I was very difficult to overcome
Sure, sometimes. Depending on the situation
I never cry over women accept for the mother of my kids when I broke up with her and this girl I really like. She's being weird, and it's frustrating me
I got my heart broken once and I didn't cry. I puked instead.
They can be suicidal. And guys will actually pull the trigger. Whereas women don’t commit suicide as much and instead self harm or something.
Some.
Most just get mad - quite often at themselves.Yes but not in front of everybody like girls do
Seriously? You're over 30 and you don't know whether or not guys have feelings? And women wonder why they so much relationship problems. 🤣
Yeah we cry and can be absolute babies and that’s okay. We’re humans too.

But all women cry because women are emotional creatures
