Sometimes, I cry because I'm happy. I remember, almost 20 years ago, when I was on a trip to Europe with my parents. At night, at a lively restaurant complete with loud chatter and upbeat musical accompaniment, while feasting on a delicious meal, I suddenly began to cry. It wasn't the events that happened earlier that day, or the particular people I was with, or the mood of the moment. Maybe it was the feeling of pure contentment and satisfaction at everything. I was too young to understand, but I cried.

Sometimes, I cry because I'm helpless. When my Internet connection disappeared for two weeks, I cried. Thanks to the help of many friends I'd met that year, I was able to make difficult decisions and admissions that I'd never be able to make otherwise. Decisions and admissions that will change my life. Yet, as I spent more and more time offline, I felt that I was alienating myself from the people I owe so much... And then my Internet connection dies. It's no longer my choice not to see them, but a fact that I cannot see them. Anger. Despair. Futility.

Sometimes, I cry because of witnessing something exceedingly beautiful. A poetically just end to a tragic romance... Such an ending to a well-written story used to make me cry, but not any more. I read something supremely artful, a story that awakened within me vivid sensations of loss, hope, emptiness, mercy, contempt, innocence, broken promises, perfect circles, and of last words that meant everything and nothing. Every emotion struck me at once and I felt the simultaneous realisation of every possibility in the realm of infinity. I cried for hours afterwards and spent the following weeks in a daze. Even now, I can't think about it without feeling my heartstrings being tugged strongly. Nothing I've seen since has had what I would consider a significant emotional impact.

Finally, and most frequently, I cry when I realise simple truths. Truths that have been looking me in the eye for so long, truths that I refused to acknowledge and that I'm afraid I will continue to ignore once I've finished crying.

To put in the simplest way possible, I cry when it doesn't make sense to do anything else.

Sometimes I cry, and I don't even know why.

Other times, I'll cry because a close family member met with an unfortunate event. That can be understood, however. xd
I cry still because I had a very good friend and pet, my dog Tresix. My mother got rid of him behind my back. I cry whenever I think about him. sweatdrop
I cried when I was very happy once because I met up with a best friend from five years ago. I was just so happy I didn't know what to do with myself, and when I left him for the day, I started crying. xp
I cry for many reasons, and if you ask me, I think I cry too much.

I don't actually.

But when most people cry, I say it's because the body is overwhelmed by the emotion.

My friend crys when she laughs, I imagine some people laugh when they cry. Crying is not necasseraly a reaction to sadness but it can also be a reaction for joy and vice versa for laughing, this rules out the possibility of crying and laughing having individual purposes. I think crying and laughing are ways of letting out great build ups of emotion.

I cry for a bunch of reasons usually it's because I don't like seeing people I love leave me. I hate actually being weak like that.
tears are not weak

i know too good ...
it happens to me too that i cry and don't know why I'm crying ...
i hate it.. i'm crying so often, but i don't want to cry! it simply feels weak to cry..
once i was at my boyfriends place and suddenly i started to cry.. but don't ask me why i was crying.. i didn't know and don't know it even now...
yesterday i was crying, when my boyfriend got in in the train home and left me at the station.. i knew that i'll see him soon again but i cried and i hate me for crying all the time ....

I cry when I'm fustrated. So I tend to cry after I get into a big fight with some one, especially if they hit something personal. I also cry when I think about my past or when my dad compliments me. I also cry when my dad's mad at me. With my parents divorce when I was 4 I barely even see my dad so it hurts to have him mad at me.

I read in a book of my brother's that there's a certain chemical in our tears that produces emotion, and when we're feeling an exceeding amount of it, we get rid of that emotion-making chemical by crying. I dunno, that's just what I read. =P

I myself hate crying in front of people. If I ever feel like I'm going to cry, I isolate myself right away. I don't know why, it just embarasses me. I don't cry much, but when I do, it's usually for some stupid reason.
To tell you the truth, I cry if I think too much or if I think about something in particular that has a strong impact on me, like a fictional character or a story I can make a connection with to something else, e.t.c.

People cry because chemical in your tears produces emotion like whay slayer said. The last time I cried was 4 years ago. Alligators don't cry, amazing! And for the last fact of mine, every time you blink a tear comes. Try blinking 500 times in a row and you will have a head ack and most likely cry a little.

I used to contain my tears and emotions a couple of years back, since people thought and told me stuff like 'you are way to emotional and that's annoying' 'you cry too much, that tells me that you are a very weak person' and because I did what I did I ended up getting sick a lot, it was soo frustrating!!

Now I cry for almost anything and sometimes without any particular reason. I will cry in moviesand/or books when someone dies, or is hurt be it emotionally or physically (mostly emotionally). When I see someone sad, even if I don't like that person. When I am very stressout. I cry whenever I thing aboutor something reminds me of my past. When my parents get mad at me or yell at me. When I feel as if I have 'failed' to someone. After hearing that someone is being treated in a unjust manner I get very angry and I start crying about it. I cry whenever I'm talking about my emotions, my past, etc. I cry when I am scared. I also cry when I fell relieved, or extremelly happy. I still don't like to cry infront of people, I feel as if I am beinga bother or something, but I am uncapable of containing my tears anymore, so when I feel like doing it, I try to hide my face...I cry for almost everything really...u.u

I have found out that I have no need to cry anymore. The last time I cried, was when my brother's mother died. I hide my sadness with happyness, and my anger with saddness. In the end, I try to act as happy as possible so nobody knows. My normal self is quiet, shy, withdrawn. Around people, I am hyper. Sometimes, I black out kinda and don't realize that I am being normal. This has been happening to me a lot lately, I black out or space out. Then people ask me if I am ok. It gets annoying sometimes. To me, crying is showing the enemy that you are weak.
