There is a thin line here... honestly. So, in general men do not like to see woman cry. It makes us sad, and it's not because men don't cry. But there comes a point, were started to feel more like you're projecting your feelings on to the man... instead of just venting to him.
As a man another person can be upset, annoyed or even frustrated and I can empathize with them on a human level. But if they want to cry over stuff, its can become too much.
I mean the family dog dies, sure that's sad so your 100% correct to want to cry... hell I will cry with you. But say your boss treated you bad at work and you want to come home a cry about it. I am like fuck; my boss treats me like shit every day... I don't have the emotional capacity to deal with my situation and then sit here and watch you cry.

"Like" is a strong word, but we do appreciate vulnerability. I don't know why so many people struggle with the concept of moderation in expressing emotions.
Have feelings, communicate your feelings, but don't be a constant sobbing mess.Let's cut through the "let's be nice" bs and get to what I think you're asking. If you're being sensitive in front of us because your dad died, we are glad that you have someone (us) in your time of need. If you're crying every day because of some first-world problem then you're just too high maintenance for a real man to put up with.
Sure. We all need to cry sometimes. Now… okay there is a extreme where it’s theatrics and you can tell when someone does that.
Venting. Absolutely! We all need someone who we can vent to in confidenceI wouldn’t say like it , but my boyfriend rather me vent to him then anyone else. He cares about me and feels sad when I’m sad. He helps me be happy because my happiness is his.
I like it when a woman trusts me enough that she can cry when I am present, but I don’t enjoy the fact that she is feeling distressed.
wouldn't say I like it why would I like someone being in a state where they felt the need to cry out of frustration
no, i feel awkward but dont stifle of u feel like crying.
Very much. Not the fact that they're sad etc. Just that they trust and are willing to be vulnerable.
Yeah, they don't do it unless you're really special to them...
Open communication is encouraged when you trust someone. Guys can however feel awkward if a girl that they don’t know very well cries in front of them. So not sure which case you meant?
Only if it's the girl we like. Otherwise, not really.
if only i can hug her🤤💕
depends what they're crying over
