I really don't cry that much. My eyes water from time to time but it's hardly the same thing. I think the last time I really cried was last September, when my egotistical maths teacher misinterpreted what I was saying and kept me behind after school to shout at me and insult me for 15 minutes. :evil:

Very VERY rarely. I do shed chemical reaction tears once in awhile when my eyes get irritated. Certain parts in movies choke me up but I never let my tears fall in those cases.

I cry, sometimes. I'll go through periods where I don't cry, than I'll hit a block where I cry more often, than I should.

That describes me very well. I have alot of crying/screaming fits. It's embarrassing at my age, but I can't help it sometimes. I get so emotional over the smallest things.

Sometimes I cry, it's more rare these days but I used to when I got upset, which was sometimes frequently.

So was I. I've just started to allow myself to cry, again.

Usually when I am upset and/or yelled at is when I start crying given the fact I'm a 16-year-old male Aspie.

I came close to crying this morning when news reports annouced a snow day in my area.
Oh well, gives me more planning time.

Same here. For so long, I forced myself not to cry or show emotions that I really don't think I could cry, even if I wanted or needed to.

I got scolded for crying at my grandmother's funeral...by my mother.
Oddly enough, it was her mother who scolded me when she was alive for crying.

Sure, until you get accused of being an attention seeker, are known as a crybaby and can't go anywhere without people mocking (imitating) you.

That's other people's problem, not yours.

As bizarre, embarassing and incredibly emo as it sounds, i'm quite the opposite. I actually enjoy licking my own tears when I cry and i'm quite fond of their salty taste. Sometimes I even wipe them and lick them off my fingers.

When I said I don't cry I lied. I thought somebody would see through the deception and I was wrong.
