Poll: How emotional are you?
This morning, I was driving Tman to school and I heard a song on the radio that made me emotional. I HATE that stuff like that makes me emotional, so I totally hold it in and my nose starts burning. 
I would prefer to be much less emotional, but I fear that it's genetic. My mom cries at everything.
So, how emotional are you, and how do you feel about it?

I'm more toward this end of the spectrum. My mom is a really emotional person, but the rest of my family is not. Sometimes I wish I was a little more emotional.
I didn't cry when H proposed. I later found out he was really hoping I would. Whoops

i can cry on que.
lol. music makes me emotional..
when i heard jayz's song about his daughter i cried.. wtf was that about?
anyway... i cry at a drop of a hat.
Me too! H started tearing up and I was like "Are you crying?!"
This made me lol. I DID almost, *almost* cry at our wedding. And I might have teared up a tiny bit when H proposed except he's a terrible secret keeper and I caught on. Usually it takes catching me off guard to get me to cry at something.

I was a wreck at our wedding. I ugly cried all down the aisle and during the entire ceremony.
I had one tear when James proposed, and I did not cry at our wedding. I thought I'd be a wreck, but I didn't. I also didn't cry when Tman was born which I thought FOR SURE I would - seeing him, the relief of labor being over, etc.
I just cry at dumb stuff.

i got to witness this. this was pretty awesome.
even though i'm super-duper emotional, i actually *didn't* cry at our wedding...i had a drippy nose..but no actual tears. h cried
.
when we had our private ceremony a few days earlier, though, i ugly cried.
ETA: and i did not cry when h proposed. i wanted to, but i didn't. i had already known for so long what was going on (we bought the ring together), and when he lead me on a scavenger hunt to propose...it was super obvious. but don't tell him. he still thinks i was surprised.

I think I get embarrassed to get emotional in front of others too. Then again, I'm crazy shy in a large group. I was probably so nervous in our wedding about having to read my vows into a microphone that I couldn't have cried, and might have otherwise. But, I don't think crying at your wedding is ANYTHING to be embarrassed by. I love it seeing a wedding where the bride and/or groom can't hold back tears.

For me, it has gotten much worse since I had Tman.

SO glad to know I'm not the only one! I was such a mess, I could barely get the words out.
I'm not a big crier, but I will cry when things hit a certain way. I cry when "Jesus Take the Wheel" comes on when I'm driving in rain (since my accident). H and I both cry when sweet or sad things happen in the tv shows we watch. We've seen them all since the very first episode, so it feels like we "know" these characters, lol. Other than that, I don't cry unless I'm super mad/frustrated. H can be pretty emotional, which I appreciate.
I thought I would be a mess at our wedding, but I ended up smiling and laughing the whole time. I got choked up walking down the aisle, but after that I was all smiles.

This, but unfortunately, I cry easily. I can usually hide it or hold it in front of others, but I don't really care if it's just DH.
In high school, I pretty much NEVER cried (except for the rare book or movie). It was my way of being strong, crying meant they had won. I got called a cold-hearted b* more than once. Now though, it depends. Certain times of the month I get emotional and will tear up about the weirdest things that don't even make sense to me and it will make me both apologize and feel stupid and pissed. When it's at a commercial, I go and get ice cream
I started to tear up at my wedding a couple of times, from happiness. I always start snuffling at weddings or whenever I see people so over-the-moon happy, I get happy tears for them.
I get the fat rolling tears with movies and books, I get so attached to my characters!! Ugly crying is usually reserved for things like horrible news (my mom's diagnosis), and death of SUPER-beloved characters (who are family to me) like Dumbledore and Sirius when I was reading.
Pre baby I was really not emotional at all. I hardly ever cried about anything. Now, though, it's a different story, and I think sleep deprivation and hormones have a lot to do with it! =]
In general - I'm pretty even keel (H would probably disagree but that's how I feel). I cry at things that make me really happy, really upset, or really sad. And also I sometimes cry at amazing things, which I know is really stupid (for example, I almost teared up reading about that Seal Team Six raid in Somalia that freed those aid workers because I was all just like, 'You go, Seal Team Six!' and I felt really proud of the US and our ability to pull off crap like that).
One day a month I have my crying day. I can totally feel it, and you don't have to say a thing to me, you just have to look at me wrong and I'm a crying, messy disaster.
