Do you cry easily; like if others cry, at TV/movies, sad/romantic movies, etc ... I do; I swear I didn't always, but now I do! But oddly enough I didn't really cry at our wedding when I thought I would :purplex:
So what about you?

I'm usually a cry-baby when it's that time of the month. The littlest things set me off, so crazy! I sometimes cry if there's a sad part in a movie, but not always. It's good to cry. :)

I'm a big crier. I think it annoys FH sometimes, but I try to explain to him that it releases endorphins and makes you feel better, so it is better than holding it in, lol.

I WILL cry at my wedding though. I'll prolly make a fool of myself. :bblol:

I am the worst at crying at movies. EVERYTHING makes me cry, even if I've seen it a million times. I also cry a lot when I'm angry or stressed. I don't cry for other people too often though--it's much harder for a true story to get to me than a movie. Hmmph.
I'm not typically a crier, however when its my time of the month that does change. Movies don't normally get to me up until this year only one movie made me cry and that was my girl. However when I saw P.S. I Love you, I seriously cried the entire time, that movie was completely heart wrenching to me. Maybe because my FHs name is Jerry and so was the guy in the movie and everything about them was exactly how we are. Not sure I could ever watch it again!

It's weird, I used to cry at everything. Now I only cry sometimes but at weird times. When I'm worked up and emotional it takes a lot to get me to cry because for some reason I think I taught myself to hold it in (which is worse) but when it's a song or a card or a movie I always cry, especially around TOM.

I am a cryer! I have kind of this tough girl persona. I have a big loud voice and am not afraid to voice my oppinion. A lot of people have actuall told me that when they first met me they were very intimidated by me. HOWEVER... (don't tell anyone!!!) I often cry during those Sylvan Learning commercials. You remember the ones where the kid is having trouble with school ,and because of Sylvan they suceed! I blame my mother, she cries more then I do!

depends. sometimes i get so stressed and frustrated with everything that i just bawl my eyes out for no reason in the middle of the day. its a stress reliever sometimes for me.
oh and when i watch animal cops and i see those poor dogs and cats that are abused constantly and killed and maimed... that makes me cry. 2 nights ago we watched american gangster and i about cried when they shot a dog. they didnt even show the dog dying but i almost cried. animal cruelty and child cruelty makes me cry big time.

You have to do something very harsh or extremely cruel to get me to tear up. I have moments where I have so built up emotions that I end up just letting it loose for no reason, but that usually takes quite awhile to produce a tear....

I cry only when my emotions get the better of me...which happens a LOT. ^^;

I really don't cry. Really, really. It takes something HUGE to set me off. I was raised that it was a sign of weakness to cry and that crying meant that you weren't worth as much as somebody who was stoic and held it all in -- only weak people, the silly people, the crybabies cry, do you want to be one of THOSE? well, of course not, so I learned not to cry. Also whenever I felt badly I would go to my parents (or, as I learned that they would hit me for crying) my teachers and they would inevitably dismiss what I felt and tell me that "it's not worth crying over", so, I learned that tears were Very Bad Things.
It's taken me a good twenty years to learn how to cry when I feel sad -- and how to feel sad without feeling simultaneously worthless for having such a inferior feeling. Once I learned that emotions are neutral things, life got a lot easier. I could cry without guilt.
I still don't cry unless there's something really dreadfully overwhelming happening, though I am getting better and recently, I was actually able to cry about a death in the family, which is major progress for me.
And I am learning not to feel shame for crying (constantly, it seems) this past 7-10 days, about the house and everything. It's really very difficult and amazingly stressful. And yet, I still feel like I 'gave in' somehow when I cried about it.

Mee toooo! I am the same way! I cry all the time ... sometimes over stupid little stuff if I am on my period.
I cried when he proposed so I am guessing that I will cry at my wedding too. I kinda want Brandon to cry a little bit at the wedding ... he is always such a tough guy I think it would be sweet! Hehehe

We watched "Breakfast at Tiffany's" last week and I couldn't stop crying at the end where she puts the cat out in the rain and tells him to run off!!!! Poor little thing!! I hate that movie now! lol
I def cry more now than I used to - but I don't mind. I'm glad that my heart has gotten softer. Adam and I both cried during our vows to each other. I love the fact that he isn't afraid to cry.

I was never a cryer before but for some reason, i don't know if i just hit a new age and new hormones or what, but i cry at everything. Even commercials! that one w/ the hurricane katrina animals gets me every time! It's over the STUPIDEST stuff! like if its a kids first day of school on tv, i'd probably cry ....????.....LOL. I also can get pick out our wedding vows b/c i cry everytime i read them. OH and for some reason....carrie underwood's voice makes me cry haha(also every other country song) . But when it's something i SHOULD cry about like a funeral or when my mom talks to me about if she was to die and what to do (she's sick) i don't. I think it's b/c my little sister needs me to be strong. But to me it seems like i have my emotions wired up wrong. i don't know if i'll cry at MY wedding but i cry at every other wedding. it's a secret though i hide it w/ my hair or look down lol my FH doesnt know

LOL, thats me as well Samantha.. :D Its okay to be a little broken. <3
I cry at everything :urgh: and it ticks me off. When I initiate a serious conversation - with a touchy subject - my eyes water and people are like "why are you crying" and I'm like "I'm not, I'm just effed up" LOL. When I sing by myself I cry.... When I tell a joke or a story I cry..... :urgh:

Sometimes it doesn't take much, like all I have to think about is not having my daddy there on my wedding day, and I ball like a baby. But then at other times, it takes a lot more to get me in tears.:sob:

I can cry at the drop of a hat it seems. No not on command lol.
I cry at movies, stories, just sitting and listening to my kids play and laugh and thinking how fast they are growing, songs are a big one, they make me think of my mom or my husband or my kids, I will tear up over almost anything.
I cried at the end of Homeward Bound lol. I think that says it all right there lol.

I'm glad to see I'm not alone in the crying department. Commercials (that Folgers one where the brother comes home from college at Christmas early in the morning to surprise everyone), movies (especially KIDS movies), tv shows, books, ugh. Even going to church makes me cry, so that's why I rarely go anymore, which inevitably makes it worse when I actually do go... it's a vicious-cycle! I thought for-sure I'd cry during our vows, because I cried while reading the script that had our names in it beforehand. But magically, I kept it in and didn't even think about it! Brian was teary-eyed and he NEVER cries!
