The other day, around noon, my wife and I were in bed, and we were talking very delicate and emotional issues, she started crying, I kissed a tear from the outer corner of her left eye, a few more tears fell, I wiped one and the tear streak as well. Long story short, at some point I also started crying, it was more intense than my usual, not that I haven't cried like that before, but it's not common. I felt a large knot in my throat and could barely talk, my eyes filled with tears and they fell from the middle of my cheeks and I felt another stream from the middle outer corner of my left cheek, as I was leaning facing her. I suppressed sobbing as my daughters were in the next rooms, I hoped she'd wipe my tears, but this time she didn't.
I determined I'll be straightforward next time and guide her to take care of my tears. Hope it's not soon.
