Yesterday I had a really really emotional, and deep conversational with my girlfriend on the phone. I actually started to cry at one point. I haven't cried for four years, since my grandmother died, and I had so much to let out. I felt so weak. Shouldn't I be the strong one? for her? for me?

Zach, sometimes you can't be strong. Bri understands that. You are strong for her- but you are also human. Sometimes, you just have to cry, and its completely alright. You aren't weak. I promise. She doesn't think so, I don't think, no one does.

If anything, it is a testament of your relationship that you feel strong enough to cry around her.

"A toothache, or a violent passion, is not necessarily diminished by our knowledge of its causes, its character, its importance or insignificance".- T.S. Eliot

Crying isn't necessarily a weakness y'know. It takes a lot of courage to let things out too.
Hope things get better for you, anyhow.

Suddenly my eyes are open
Everything comes into focus, oh!
We are all illuminated,
Lights are shining on our faces
We are, we are blinded !
We are, we are blinded !

I believe @Vertigo is right

dont worry my boy Sometimes crying helps... and i tell you-.- the fucking full of himself proud Kozsi of yours <3

It's a typical stereotype that guys are not supposed to show emotional weakness, It actually takes a strong person to show weakness around others (if that makes any sense)

i think it's good you finally let it out and cried.. I mean, I wouldn't want a guy who cries allllll the time but you haven't in YEARS. Not just mentally did you need it but your body needed, that release. It's really hard to hold everything in and sometimes you just have to cry and let it out. You had a lot going on in real life and things happened, like with me and we fixed that, and now you're letting it go and crying so i think things will start being better from now on.

Little white flowers will never awaken you, not when the cold depths have all but overtaken you.

Dearest, The days are all so long,
and in the shadows I spend them all.
My heart and I long for slumber.
Slumber I'm caressing you, I bless your touch, I lust for you.
Slumber you are not a dream, Not as much as you seem.

I don't really let myself cry most of the time but when i do i feel better after, so maybe you will.

Sometimes crying makes you feel better. It makes me feel better, anyway.

There is nothing wrong with crying.. It's good to let your emotions out because it is hard holding them in sometimes. Trust me, I do it all of the time and it's not good. But crying doesn't make you weak or anything, It's totally normal.
