My boyfriend cried in front of me? sort of

[Anonymous]

we had a argument about him not trusting me and he had hurt my feelings so I started crying and I told him to leave me alone and I wished I never met him and that I didn't wanna see him ever again but I was just talking out of anger and he started telling me how much he loved me and that he really liked me and didn't wanna lose me over something so silly, he said he was sorry for hurting me

but when I didn't respond to him and I kept telling him to leave me alone he started crying a little bit and said he didn't want us to be over. but for some reason I keep getting this feeling that it was all an act but I'm not sure because I also feel like I hurt him but I don't know do you think he would have been able to fake something like crying?

also this might sound kinda f***ed up but is it bad that I found it kinda funny and I wanted to laugh when he was crying? I don't know why I wanted to laugh o.0

In my opinion, the argument should have been over once you realized he was crying. Guys see it as that if they cry in front of anyone especially their girlfriend it shows that they are weak and it demasculinizes them. We may think it shows they are sensitive but they don't see it that way. That fact that he trusts you enough and cares for you enough to cry in front of you says a lot.

Im not pulling this out of my ass honestly. My boyfriend cried in front of me and we had been talking about trust issues to. He left for basic training and he was worried that I would get tired of waiting for him. So we argued about trust for a bit but we ended up talking it out.

He actually told me he has never cried in front of anyone before and that the fact that he let himself do that, he knew that he could trust me. After that I knew I loved him and I knew he felt the same way. Maybe you just need to talk to him about it.

As for the wanting to laugh thing, yeah it is a little messed up that you wanted to cry if it does turn out to be the case that he was showing you his true feelings.

did you want to laugh at him? cause yes that's f***ed. but anyway..

he probably really cares about you and the thought of you being up set and saying those things made him get really emotional.

dont f*** it, you have someone who gives a sh*t about you.

If the argument was about him getting mad about you talking to other guys, then he isn't worth it since he could doom your happiness. Honestly, people like that don't get ANY sympathy from me.
No guy should put his own selfish, unnecessary bulls*** before his girlfriend's needs and wants
A true boyfriend would care about his girl and would want to see her happy rather than to force her to make him feel satisfied. Anyone can be the guy, but the girl is the gifted one.

Guys break down differently than girls do. To me it doesn't sound fake. Give him some space to let him rethink things through and let him know that you are going to give him some space to reflect. Hope it all works out for the both of you.

So you say terrible things to him that hurt his feelings and you feel like laughing about it?

That you spoke out of anger is no excuse for being an ass. Yes it was bad. Yes you have a lot of apologizing to do.

He's as sad as you are. Arguement is over, so make it up. What's alive without a little fighting? He loves you. Hopefully you do too.
