Do you think crying, shows you're weak?

I hate when people say that. Everyone cries at points in there life and there is nothing wrong with it. It actually helps people get emotions out so that they dont hold them all in and become bitter mean people. I dont believe you should cry over everything.. but crying when your hurt or need to does no mean you are a weak person, it means your human.

Crying is not a sign of weakness. I see it as a sign of strength, cause you were brave enough to let your feeling out. : )

Not weak but it does show that you’re vulnerable.

I think the reason that people tell you not to cry is just that, the people that care about you don’t want others to take advantage of you because of the present vulnerability. But that’s just a stretch IMO.

I don’t personally think it shows that you’re weak, it shows that you’re human and you have a breaking point and just need some comfort. Now, if you cry about everything well that just another story, one that I’d rather not talk about :)

I think it shows ur human and u have feelings

when I cry, I always get told SUCK IT UP and COME ON NOW DON’T BE A BABY and I really hate it. Im really emotional, cause i’ve been hurt allot. This has just been getting wrose, I barley ever cry around my friends, and just hold it in until I get home at night but it’s getting to painful. Idk what to do!

no because if you keep your emotions bottled up you tend to do crazy stuff so no crying doesnt show that your weak you just need to know when to cry and when not to(if your in a weid situation) i hope this helps you!

Crying when your hurt is okay, but you do need to learn that theres a time and place for it and not to cry at the drop of a hat. While it’s okay to cry and show your emotions, you also have to learn how to have tougher skin and let things roll off of you more, not for others sake, but to keep yourself sane and not so upset all the time.

I dont like crying. wastes time, so i normally suck it up and deal with it some other way. altho it is good to cry every once in awhile, just to let all the stress out. I just hate the headaches i get and my throat hurts.

No. Did you know tears aren’t just water, they are a chemical that the body needs to release. So people who say it’s weak are idiots. Your body has to release.

I got screamed at when I cried over my boyfriend, who I had been dating for 1 year and 6 months, when he cheated on me, WITH MY BEST FREIND! I know I’m young, and you’re probably going to say that I don’t know what love is. I know that I loved him. I know I still do.

Rather then explaining then giving an example, I will do the oposite!

Think of yourself as a sponge.. You have holes, water sinks into those holes and over time, eventually as a sponge when wet it can only hold so much water/liquid substance til it begins to drizzle once picked up! As days go bye maybe weeks those small holes turn into small tears till you finally see pieces of the sponge falling off or ripping away! There is a limit on how much that sponge can stay in its best condition til eventually you say ok, its had enough @buse, I think its time to get rid of it & get a new sponge!

Unfortunately with us humans, we cant replace ourselves. We begin fresh, absorbing all we can expanding more & more while our intake grows & grows. Eventually, there comes a point where we simply cant hold in anymore. That does not mean we are weak or less of a person it just means we simply cant hold anymore in. Once that limit hits it’s peak, like a full sponge leaking…so do we…only we burst our into this rage or as we call it crying. Each of our limits vary..some have a higher tolerance as others from taking so much in cant anymore & seem to cry about everything. One’s pain doesnt simply leave, they have to be dealt with. Once that is done, you will find yourself a much happier person & a much stronger person.
Those that choose to hold it in & simply shove it down, are also those that wind up having a heart attack at a certain age wondering why or how that came to be. Do not kid yourself, shoving down or away emotions only causes it to become a time b0mb before it is ready to set off & when it bl0ws it bl0ws & you dont want to be near one that does!

If you feel the need to cry to relieve pain/stress or anything in between then feel free to do so…Those that cant handle seeing you cry are the issues not you yourself by crying.

Take care, hope this helped.

No, it shows you have emotions.

Not a all. Crying only says that you really care. I believe if you must cry this mean to me that your passionate about something.

It takes courage to cry in public and if you do you have guts. And your a very emotional person and usually people who cry are very wise

I think it shows a sign of being strong. Or just being strong for too long.

That’s like saying happiness shows that you’re weak. Crying, Laughing, Smiling, Frowing, everything shows emotion. Everyone cries, everyone laughs, it’s a fact of life. If anyone says you’re weak because you cry, then they are a hyporcite.

Everyone has cried, at some point, craying does not mean your weak, it just means your not afraid to show how you feel, that you show that you show that even sometimes you need help too. Which is strong and brave.

Nooooo way… it shows that you are human- that you have feelings, and you can express them.

No. I used to have a boyfriend that cried a lot and it annoyed me…..but then i got a boyfriend who never cries and i kind of miss the crying. To me it says that you are alive,you have feelings. I think its totally healthy to cry once in a while, its scary if you dont….
