I haven't cried in like six years.

I haven't cried in over six years. The last time I cried was when I was 13 and my grandfather died. Since then I have lost my grandmother and a couple of Uncles, along with some family pets. I'm not counting laughing so hard that my eyes tear up. SO...is it normal?
Do you think it's normal?

yeah its normal.Some people cry at the drop of a hat over nothing like movies or a book.Its more for show than anything I think.Cry when you have too .Save it for the real things.

Wish I didn't cry so much tbh. There's lots of people who find it hard to cry, so it's normal.

I don't think that crying is a real indicator of the depth of your emotions. Some people cry easily at just about anything; others almost never cry even in the worst of situations.

If you're having a problem with someone who has suggested that you're unemotional due to a lack of tears, I'd wonder if there was an underlying reason for asking such a question. Then deal with that rather than the less important issue of tears vs. no tears.

i think it's unhealthy not to cry,and i have this problem.I'm a chick,and i cant cry very easily,sometimes i'll admit i'll cry during a movie,but very rarely.I've noticed when i go months and months without crying after i do cry i feel so much better.It's like an emotional build-up it has to come out eventually,even for guys.
