Re: How Many Times Have You Seen DH Cry?

  • I've known DH for a little over 6 years now and I've seen him cry once... at our wedding.  Aww...  If you could welling up but not actual tears, he did that when he proposed.  I know he cried real tears when his Grandma died (right when we first started dating), but I didn't see it.  So I guess my total is 1.

  • Oh he's a total sap. I can't even count! Don't tell him I told you that though Wink

  • We've known each other for almost 9 years and I may have seen him actually cry maybe 4 times.

  • I've seen him cry a handful of times. His dad passed away when he was 20...20 year old men don't really share emotions and with something that big he kept it in. He has been able to let it out more and cry about it.

    Once we got in a MASSIVE argument a few years ago and I was fed up and he thought he was going to lose me so he broke down. 

    He got a little teary eyed at our wedding too ,,,at first because I talked on and on about how I was going to cry my eyes out and when it came time I didn't cry so he was nervous as to why i wasn't crying, and then during the ceremony with our vows

  • We've known each other for 3 & 1/2 years.  I believe I've seen him cry twice.  Once when we got into a bad fight years ago and he thought he was going to lose me, and the second time was at our wedding.  He is pretty strong so doesn't show too much emotion and I was thrilled at the fact that he shed a few tears at the wedding.

  • I've known DH almost 6 years and I can only remember seeing him cry once--right after our kitty died this spring.  Not when we separated for summers at college, not when his grandfather passed away, but because he missed our little Jericho.  I was touched by how attached he was to our furbaby.

  • Three years w/ hubby... I've seen him tear up a couple times.  Sappy movies, mostly!
  • I've known DH 6 years and seen him cry a handful of times.  The first time when he was having some family issues.  His eyes got welled up when he proposed and then at the ceremony.  The only time I've seen him openly really sob and cry was last March when I had a miscarriage.  Oh, I almost forgot...he also cried the first time we saw Mini Muffin's hearbeat on the ultrasound  Big Smile  Now that I think of it, he is pretty emotional haha
  • I've known DH about 15 years but we weren't super close until we started dating (almost 5 years ago).   

    Over those 5 years he's gotten "watery eyes" a several times (people moving away, meeting kids with wack home situations, etc...), but the times I've seen full on tears were when his BFF got married, when his sister got married (he officiated and cried the whole time), and when we got married.  I guess special weddings really touch his heart.  Smile

  • DH is definitely not a crier. He'll get a little misty sometimes, but the only times I can really remember him actually crying are when he proposed and when he first heard Liam's heartbeat and at our 20 week ultrasound when he actually looked like a little person rather than the blob he was at 6 weeks!

    He is definitely more of a happy crier than a sad crier. He had a pretty tough childhood, so I think he has different methods of managing sadness.

  • 34 years...and I can divide it into two groupings:

    When Heather was born, when his mom died, when we dropped Heather in North Carolina for college and drove away, and when Heather got married.

    Second grouping is illness.  He has something called factor 5 and has had 7 heart attacks, a stroke, and countless vein procedures.  He has cried there when he was afraid.

    It has to be something big  Crying

    My baby girl is a married woman...and now my baby girl HAS a baby girl. Time unfolds in such an amazing way. I've been blessed!
  • I've known H for 13 years, we dated for 7 or 8 of those.  I've never seen him cry or even well up - not even when his best friend died.  Guess 15 years in the military does that to a guy!
  • DH and I have been together for 3 years (we met on eHarmony, and it only took us a couple of weeks of dating to realize we were it for each other), and I've seen him cry a lot. LOL I have a sensitive DH.

    Most of it is for movies - The Orphanage (surprise cry there for both of us), and some other sappy movies that we've watched together.

    Another was on the day he proposed - it snowed that day, and he said that he had prayed, wanting a sign that asking me to marry him was the right thing to do. When it snowed, he took that as his sign that it was right.

    Also, when his dad was making a speech (something he does often - it's a bit weird) about his (FILs) parents dying, and how much he missed them, and DH got very weepy.

    Another time was when our parents were talking about how we were meant to be, and how great we are together - it just got him all choked up. :)
