This thread is aimed more at the blokes than the womenfolk being as the latter tend to cry once a month by default. Sorry ladies, you're welcome to tell me off, make me a sammich and lurk for the gossip though. ;)

I'm just curious. When was the last time you genuinely cried like a small child? I mean, proper let the waterworks flow. How old are/were you and without wrenching too many heart-strings; (I don't want this to be a sad/depressing thread - just indulging in curiousity is all) what caused it?

I only ask as I honestly can't remember the last time I cried. I've had times where I've felt low, sad and unbearable dispondancy but I still didn't cry. I think the last time I cried was probably around 13/14 although I can't remember over what so it's an educated guess more than anything; so that's about 10 years ago for me. I'm sure something massive around the corner will have me bawling so I'm not playing top-trumps here. :p

Over to you.
 
About three hours ago when our health system failed on me in a time of need and refused to give me any strong painkillers despite being in agony.

I guess it's my fault for being ill prepared but i've spent the last 4 days without any pain relief and i've been through 3 different routes to try and get something sorted and i've been let down every time.

Tomorrow is hopefully 4th time lucky :(
 
im sure i need to see a doc about my emotions. i cry like a baby at complete random happy things . hardly ever cry at sad things. and pretty much never ever cry infront of anyone unless its tears of laughter which happens all the time

i cried last month after dropping off some family friends at the airport. My mother past away earlier this year overseas and whilst i was on the M25 heading home the loss of her just hit me again as i thought just a few months ago she was on the other side of this motorway heading to the same airport but she never made it back to travel this side of the road to come home. I cried all the way home.
 
I can't remember when I last really let loose with the tears.

@ the OP, surely it's more like 3 or 4 times a week on average for women?
 
Depends how you're going to define crying. If tears in your eyes, it happens occasionally. It's the only way I get reminded I'm actually not dead inside as I tend not to display my emotions. E.g. this brings water to my eyes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlD_XNMCjuo


If you mean crying as in hysterical crying, it's been a while.

Haven't done it in public, or indeed to anyone, since I was about 11 though.
 
When my grandad died when i was about 9-10. Oh and i welled up and nearly cried my eyes out when the vet told me that my dog had died on the operating table.
 
Think when I winded my self as a little kid.

Never really had a cry??? Not even sure what it feels like lol, I have had a few throat gulp moments but no tears.

Something would have to seriously upset me to make my eyes even the slightest bit moist.

It's a burden not a praise as when sad things really happen such as when a very dear and close friend of mine died, i shed no tears or showed no emotion and people slated me for it, saying I was cold and had no soul??? I was torn to bits, still miss her and its been over a year, but just because I didn't cry I'm a monster?

Probably when my Granddad died a few years ago. Still brings tears to my eyes even now. I don't think I'll ever meet someone who has such a strength of character. He was a great person.
 
cant remember last time i proper cried but i shed a tear when the old man in independance day flew his plane into the alien ship to blow it up.
 
I don't remember the last time I cried at anything sad.

However, happy stuff, even if painfully contrived, tends to set me off. For example, I'm pretty sure the last time I cried was whilst watching Secret Millionaire - the end of each one, where they hand over the cheques to people, brings on the tears! Also cheesy stuff like the ending of The Mighty Ducks or anything where someone overcomes adversity or gets deserved recognition. I'm a proper wimp!
