I pretty much never get past the wet eyes stage. And I don't want to. I haven't really fully cried in three or four years, so to get me there means that something is very wrong.

That said, I think my response is more primal and less empathic, if that makes any sense. I don't necessarily know what they're feeling, but the feelings that the situation stirs in me are strong enough to get me misty.

Speaking personally, it's always bugged me that there has never, NEVER been a Disney Prince who has ever cried, while I believe practically every Disney Princess has done so.

 
That crossed my mind when I made this post. I was wondering if there were any male character counterparts out there who wept, whom the women might have found attractive.  The dwarfs did weep for Snow White, though.

I find it interesting that you guys never involve any kind of romantic relationship in your fantasies.

 
I suppose it's because I've had quite a few experiences comforting girlfriends in the past. Each time was wonderful, but they also don't represent anything new to experience, so to speak.

Sometimes I fantasize and remember an ex crying on me at some time or another, but I always want to share new things.

This is another true story, happened about three years ago. It might sound like a bit of a fish story but it's all true, save for a few personal details.

So, a few years back I wound up with some money saved up and decided to indulge some wanderlust. I was able to get a chunk of time off from work and loaded up my car for a coast to coast trip, upstate NY to Los Angeles and back, with lots of good stops in between. It happened to coincide with my meeting a girl from Los Angeles who I'd been talking with on the internet for some time, so we decided to meet up during my trip and see if there was anything between us.

We had discussed our likes and dislikes in pretty extreme detail beforehand, and she told me that having a good enough orgasm almost always made her cry. She knew what I liked, and she knew I would be very happy to experience that, so this trip was a great opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

After fun detours, including some hiking in the Rockies in Colorado, and desert rambles in Utah, we met at a shopping mall on the outskirts of LA, and we wound up shacking up for a couple of weeks in various places around LA, as well as a five day field trip to Las Vegas. She was a pretty girl, Hispanic, tall, with a curvy body. We'll call her Sara. 

In any of our bedroom encounters, I discovered that not only would an orgasm make her cry, but full-on uncontrollable sobbing. I remember the first time it happened, she was becoming more and more tensed up, and beginning to clench up her face for crying. TorNorth would have loved her tight, curled lip. She had rather a deep, husky speaking voice for a woman, so it made for an intriguing contrast when she suddenly let loose with very high-pitched, fluttering, feminine sobbing, like "eeeheeheeheehee," very rapid and breathy. She had deep eyes, that held a lot of tears, flooding with them like pools and eventually overflowing down her cheeks in dark streaks. 

In between fits, she would cry out declarations o

I recall an episode of Breaking Bad where Walter lets Jesse cry on his shoulder, damned if I know which one.

The scene at the end of LOTR: ROTK between Frodo and Sam counts. "If I could've married anyone, it would've been her." Also, when Frodo sets sail for Valinor.
