I'm sad.
That's it. I'm a sad man. Men aren't supposed to be emotional, but I am. I'm a recently singled, 33 year old cry baby.

15. I'm agreeing with fleabert on this one
What the fuck is wrong with expressing your emotions? I maintain that the measure of a true man is whether he can allow himself to cry - in front of other people.

"Men aren't supposed to be emotional" Yeah well fuck that shit.

You have a choice - be an automaton who feels nothing nor be a human being who feels deeply.



Khash.,

17. Some men have trouble crying
I being one of them.Its not a macho thing.To be honest there were times I wish I could have cried.Bet I would have felt better afterwards.

Doesnt mean Ive never cried,just that it isnt a matter of turning on a switch for some of us.

In my case I put on some good blues music and let the guitar do the crying for me.There is also blues that you can listen to when you arent feeling sad but thats another story.
