I will never cry in front of any girlfriend ever again⚠️ (Page 3)

[Kiran_Yagami]

Women not meaning what they say is nothing new, and the fallacy that men are unfeeling machines or taught to be unfeeling machines is just asinine. Of course we feel, we just conceal it. Why? Because that is what is expected of us by men and women alike, and because being outwardly emotional can be a hindrance to your cause. It also lets you make decisions based on emotion instead of reason. Being outwardly emotional IS A WEAKNESS, and women know that even if they won't admit it. Weak men don't get laid.

[myTake Owner]

Yeap!
We conceal it also in order to not fall out of their dating pool selection when they screen for a new boyfriend.

[ManOnFire]

This is exactly what I've been saying on GaG for a long time now. Women talk about men needing to open up and be emotional but don't really believe we should. They are not really as empathetic as they want people to believe.

Sorry about what happened to you.

[myTake Owner]

Thank you my friend!

[nerms123]

Uhh. My boyfriend cried and I didn’t leave him so I don’t think this is the case but sorry this happened to you.

[myTake Owner]

Thanks!

[lunarmoon]

I feel so sorry that society has done this as someone who struggles with depression i know how hard it can be you should feel able to feel your emotions regardless of your gender im so sorry you had a girl do that to you im here if you ever need to talk or vent

[myTake Owner]

Thank you a lot! I got the support I wanted :)

[SinisterRoomba]

Nooo! Don't think this! That's just one person. I know plenty of girls who are super caring and emotionally supportive, and have been there for me in hard times including when I had to vent/cry. Then again, I also have met a girl who thought I was pathetic for being a sensitive male. Needless to say, we're not friends anymore. There are dicks out there, but don't let that represent an entire half of the population. Like others have said, if a girlfriend leaves you for needing emotional support, then she's not the one for you. You will meet one day a girl who does care about you, genuinely, but you'll need to open up, even if it means vulnerability.

[myTake Owner]

You're right. Finally, we have our "shit test" for women to test their qualification of being a true girlfriend!

[Anonymous]

I don't think it's a breakup sentence, but the thing is always: why risk it?
Some women are more okay with it that others, and you can't know which ones those are or what the limit is. A lot of girls will say they are okay with it, but they'll of course qualify that with something like "but don't be a baby". Y'know, some arbitrary statement to blur everything and make your err on the side of caution. They're being honest when they say it's okay for men to cry. The thing is that it is okay... until it's not, and that's all the info you get. They want you to share your emotions and your feelings... until it's too much, then you're fucked. So living that way, why even do anything to approach that line? Why risk it? The occasional tear over a dead family member is likely tolerable, but if you get a little too emotional about something they've deem to be not that big a deal, well then you're in trouble.

"They're being honest when they say it's okay for men to cry. The thing is that it is okay... until it's not, and that's all the info you get."

Absolutely! Tell me all about it!
Damned if we don't. Damned if we do. Well, what should it be 😰😫?

[Anonymous]

This is the most idiotic thing I’ve ever heard. If a women can’t accept your emotions you shouldn’t have been with her in the first place. Stop being brainwashed by society. We men need to let tears out and we should not care who’s watching. Hell she probably cheated on you anyway if she behaved like that. So save your self and stop A. Changing your self for woman or anyone for that matter B. following what this crooked society tells you C. (The most important one) Not being your SELF. This goes for both men and woman. A girlfriend or boyfriend is not needed for happiness.

[Streak]

Why go anon. Is it fear?

[Opinion Owner]

No clown I just go in it because it became a habit.

[myTake Owner]

Yeah, I agree. So what I do with toxic and heartless bitches like her is delete and block her absolutely everywhere.
Time to bloom in life and make room for a good girlfriend worthy of my love and tears. Crying is the true "shit test". Finally, a formula to weed out bitches from the girlfriends.

[Streak]

Lol women must love a little boy likr yourself

[Streak]

Anon of course. Maybe aspiring clown himself? Oh universe

[Opinion Owner]

@Streak hold the tears in puss boy. By doing this ur only being their slave. If that is your intention, be my guest beta male LMFAO.

[chunlilovesvega]

not all girls are man-hating bitchy feminists.

I'm a strict anti-feminist and I hate to be considered as I am similar to any other female I'M NOT, there are females who actually value men's lives and emotions more than their own, we are rare but we exist. :(

[myTake Owner]

I thank you for your words!

[JB_Krumpy]

I wholeheartedly disagree. This stigma is what's causing men to take their lives at a rapidly growing rate.
Shame on anyone who condemns a man for expressing emotion.
Bottled emotions breaks us. Male or female. Sometimes even leading us to lash out verbally or physically.
I've been married for almost 13 years and my wife sees me cry regularly. So do my children. They shouldn't fear what they feel. Nor the judgements that come from it.
I'm sorry for what happened to you. You weren't in the wrong. You were with the wrong person and hopefully she grows as much from this experience as you do.
It's ok, not to be ok. It's ok to need help.
Don't deny what you are or how you feel. Be open and honest with yourself and your loved ones. That's freedom.

[myTake Owner]

Well, I hope more for her, that karma will deliver her just what she deserves and not any less. If I'm lucky, karma will let me know.
As for me - I'm not keeping in touch with toxic people. Never. I'll just bloom nevertheless.

[MackToday]

Men can cry over things like fallen comrade or their country but they can not cry over themselves. It has to do with evolution. Think if you're in a battle and you start crying, the enemy sees that, they come right for the one they know has cracked has worn down. You just compromised yourself and your fellow soldiers. That's just the fact of it. Women also spot this kind of thing they have to avoid the ones who are weak or who might be weak. This too is for survival, only strong healthy children must be born. This is also another reason why anti abortion is bull shit to the core.

[Ac211]

It's a good thing to cry in front of ur girlfriend cause it shows her u really care in my opinion. I remember this one girl I used to date I forgot what we were talking about but I started crying in front of her and tbh that made our relationship even stronger. Never be scared to express ur emotions cause if u don't ur girl will second guess y'all relationship and also her self esteem will drop really low.

[myTake Owner]

Makes sense. Crying is our "shit test" we have for women.

[kespethdude]

Any woman who dumps a man for crying is a "C U Next Tuesday" anyway and she will never find her true love anyway. You're better off with either one who will tolerate crying or become a MGTOW (only if you live in a place where no such woman exists who isn't also the anti-man types you mentioned earlier).

[myTake Owner]

I agree!

[Channing5000]

I couldn't get through all that, bro, but broke into laughter at the point you think the skank (it means liar) left you because you cried. Keep telling yourself that, dude, and you won't fix your other real problems that are your personality deficiency that she left you over. She wasn't worth your time anyway, she needs to fix herself too.

[myTake Owner]

I realized that by now. I'm doing much better now. Simply put: The trash took itself out.

[ninjafemme]

My boyfriend did tell me he cried and I heard the emotional breakdown he was having over the phone. It did trigger me a little , I didn't know what to do in that situation, because he just wanted to be left alone , he got explosively angry. It was quite a shock. When I cry , I will seek comfort and such, we still together and I totally forgot about that , until I read here.

[myTake Owner]

Wow.

[ShadowofRegret]

I'm sorry about what she did to you...

It is interesting how some women talk about wanting their man to cry, only to leave him as soon as he does, but of course, the true test comes when the man actually cries.

That is why I prefer a woman who does not buy into what society tells us men are supposed to be like, I want a woman who would never leave me, and would always be there to comfort me when I feel sad.

Honestly, women like the one you had to deal with are some of the worst.

[myTake Owner]

"It is interesting how some women talk about wanting their man to cry, only to leave him as soon as he does, but of course, the true test comes when the man actually cries."

Tell me all about it. You took the words right out from my mouth.
Damned if we do. Damned if we don't. Argh! What shall it be? 😱🤯💥

Yeah, she's a heartless bitch. That's why I blocked her and deleted her. She's forgotten history. It's time to bloom in life. At least there's room for a proper girlfriend now ☺

[kimberleylove]

My boyfriend cries in front of me and i feel good when he does it, not that i like him crying but i feel he trusts me. And i find it natural, he has feelings too just like any human being. Knowing that your man can open his heart completely to you should be a pride for a woman and not a shame or a sign of weakness.

[myTake Owner]

I agree completely.

[BrittBratt2416]

That's sucks, it sounds like to me she's not good at handling emotions and soothing people. I know I'm kinda awkward around people who cry to, not cause i see it as a weakness but because I don't want to say the wrong thing to them. But don't let this one girl turn you into emotionless brick, to many women actually beg their boyfriends and husbands to open up and talk with them. I think I only seen my fiance cry once and that's when I thought we were gonna break up and I still love him. So.. you just have to find the right girl who will be there when you laugh or cry.

[BrittBratt2416]

There's a reason why we cry, God designed this way as reason to relief stress be it good or bad. Obviously He sees nothing wrong with men crying if He allowed men to cry.

[Felinegirl]

Not in my experience. A male friend of mine (who I friendzoned long ago) cried in front of me after a long deep talk. It made me reconsider that friendzone for the first time. Not enough to fall in love or anything, but I still feel closer than before.

Boyfriends of mine have cried with me (I've had 3, all of them have). It always made up closer and was never connected to the breakup. My current boyfriend cried with me too.

Only time it's bad is when he cries in a manipulative way. For example when I am mad at him and he cries to get his way. (Had that with a boyfriend who kept overstepping my boundaries. I told him to stop hurting me and he cried calling me mean. That's not gonna work)

[BALLERINA297]

I’m very sorry that happens to you but not all girls are alike and from expierince I would not have ghosted you or blocked you or anything I absolutely would encourage it as I love a man that can show his vulnerability from time to time and be open about whatever is on his mind or bothering him and personally love openness with a guy I know all about what social media and social convention dictates but don’t get to raped up in it and just be yourself and the next one if she truly cares and loves you will live you back for who you are.

[janna_jcb]

I’m sorry for what happened to you. I just want to let you know that you can definitely cry in front of your girlfriend. I know of not one girl who wouldn’t accept it. I personally see it as a strength to cry in front of someone else and discuss your problems and feelings with them, as it shows you are not afraid to show imperfections and you trust them.

[myTake Owner]

Very good to know!
