Do women think it's problematic if their boyfriend never cries? (Page 2)

[Anonymous]

You can show that you're upset, but never cry in front of your woman. She'll lose respect for you in an instant.

You're allowed to be angry, jealous, spiteful, etc... but if she ever has to comfort you when you're sad or grieving, you're no longer a man to her

I would probably feel concerned if my boyfriend didn't at all. I want to be with someone who is comfortable with opening up to me and talking about their feelings. I want my partner to be there for support when I need it so I would do the same for them in return

Men are not supposed to get emotional. Women really hate that. They need a Rock. lol

[Asker]

But then they also want a soft pillow. Some just can't find a middle ground or decide.

[GuidoThePizzaMaker]

They only say they want that pillow-man lol!
Women just want to see a man's weaknesses so they can manipulate him or control him
If a woman can control you, it means she doesn't respect you. And if she doesn't respect you, she can never truly love you

[Asker]

Also If a woman can control you, then it's you, who gave her that power and just perhaps you may deserve it.

Not you as in literally you but still. It's a lesson worth learning. No self respecting individual gives up it's own autonomy.

Unfortunately i am speaking from experience

[Asker]

Unfortunately I cannot deny it.

You are what you are, lots of men don't cry it's not in our nature to go around blubbering like cucks. If a woman can't appreciate a mans nature maybe she should stay away from men all together. She might not be up to being with a man.

Well, it depends on why the man can’t or won’t cry. I don’t think it’s problematic necessarily, but it can be depending on the reasoning why the man can’t or won’t cry.

There was someone I knew that did not feel emotions. He never cried. He said that he did not feel empathy or pity for others. I would feel saddened if I see a child with cancer or someone who lost a loved one. He did not feel anything. His close relative was diagnosed with cancer and he did not shed a tear.

[SvanUlf]

Yes, not everyone experiences negative emotions and empathy. Usually one would mask that behavior, though, as failure to do so has a tendency to result in mobs wielding torches and pitchforks. ;-)

[madgoat]

Some are publicly tearful, Some people cry in private and have a public face. Others sale through life problems without a tear. Who says they should do otherwise?

[AlexanderBrunnrgaard]

I haven't cried genuinely for years. Some men are just far less susceptible to sorrow. It doesn't have to mean that they're suppressing anything. It just takes a lot to get to them.

[LonewolfMeme]

My boyfriend is like this. He doesn't show pain or much emotion around me or anyone bc he don't feel like he can. I've accepted it but him opening up would help him be able to talk about the unavoidable problems.

[No_Archons]

Never listen to what a girl says. From a pure biological standpoint, if you cry, you are. lesser in their eyes. 99% of the time this is true so dont let em fool ya, maybe someday u can cry infront of your wife, but itd better be extremely rare

[Jesslin412]

I almost made him cry one night and it about tore me apart. I felt so bad! I cry a lot. I’d rather him not cry

[Saarr]

I'm not sure about this as I'm nkt much of a cryer either... But if the person does speak about his emotions / problems it's fine with me I guess 😊

[ZoeyMercer]

I think it’s a red flag and will think there’s a problem with him mentally if I’ve never seen him cry and he has said he’s never cried when I’m not there that’s fine.

[Hassaniscool]

How's that a red flag, it's normal I don't cry

[sasukeuchiha7]

I'm the guy who won't cry if I lose a job or something but I will cry if I lose someone or if I watch a sad anime scene or MCU movie. My girl's gotta be okay with that.

[Browneye57]

The last thing any woman wants is her man breaking down into tears every time she does. Trust me on this.

[blondfrog]

Women will say they want a sensitive guy, but then when most see them cry they will go stop being a cry baby or it will be off putting to him.

[Anonymous]

I appreciate the honesty of @SexyAshh. Most women are put off by a man who cries but they are not honest about it because they say what they think they are supposed to say. That really doesn't help matters. Just be fucking honest.

[topumasum]

I would prefer him to cry to me because it brings more closure for the both of us.

[BluesheepOwl]

I don't want a guy that bottles it up, that seems scary.

[LuWe22]

It's alright but if your parents die It's healthy and good to cry and don’t bottle up your feelings and grief.
