If you know me, I cry all the time. One time, after a very stressful week of school, friend drama and nine of the saddest Youtube commercials you have ever seen, I crawled up under a computer desk in the library and cried for a solid ten minutes. We used to make fun of my mom all the time for weeping, but I have fully embraced my crying adulthood. Here are some things everyone who is "in touch with their emotions" knows to be true:
1. You cry at least once a day...
2. ...and it can be honestly started by anything. You wake up and your room is messy? Cry. The wind blows a little too hard and your hair gets messy? Cry.
3. You are a sympathetic crier, so If someone is sobbing near you, there is no stopping your tears.
4. Commercials make you cry, especially the one about the grandpa and Christmas commercials.
5.. Cute engagement videos are your kryptonite.
6. Ditto Fireworks shows. Especially the Disney ones.
7. You can't go to the movies with basically anyone because they will judge you for tearing up. But I will never apologize for crying during any cartoon movies. Those are meant to make you cry.
8. You cry more for being happy than sad. Which is very hard to explain to people.
9. It is very difficult to tell new people in your life that you aren't upset when you cry most of the time, it is just something that you do.
10. You actually cry with every emotion. Anger, sadness, joy, frustration, exhaustion. Bring on the waterworks.
11. Your tried and true friends LOVE to capitalize on this issue, and make fun of you relentlessly.
12. Still, they turn to you when they are upset, because you are the best shoulder to cry on.
13. You have honestly quit making excuses for your crying. People will accept you for you or they won't.
14. And you stand by the reasoning that crying release toxins that will inevitably make you happier.
15. You are a unashamed, unabashed crier. And you love yourself for it.
Cry on little weeper.
