Crying Lovers / I just had a minor epiphany about my crying 'type'

**Posted by PhoebeOnThePhone** February 9, 2021 11:25 pm

Ok, so my general crying type is 'men onscreen'. Not every man but most of them.

But I realized just today that there is a special special place in my heart for when it's a smartass who cries. Like, something in me kinda broke the first time Mulder cried on the X-Files.

Recently I've been watching through 'Psych' and um I really want to see Shawn (James Roday Rodriguez) cry. Genuine crying, not just comedy crying. Realizing I have a subtype makes me understand better why it is I want to see him cry as much as I do. It probably won't happen. Anyways, yay for gaining a new understanding of oneself?

I think this works for me as well, though i got to see some smartass in real life at the college and he had the same effect on me as 'onscreen men' but only for a shorter time . The reason i like those scenes so much is that the crying is detailed, i get to see all those moments when it unravels with some particularties that i know i may never see in real life, it's like a can peek through a door and see the mystery and the beauty of men in their most genuine moments. This is what makes vulnarable onscreen men almost a guilty pleasure. I wonder why a lot of men don't do it more often in real life although some definitely don't hide at all. .
