Say No To Crying Just a capricorn trait?

I was wondering why I don't cry. No matter how much people hurt me.. Friends says I am heartless. Society says "Crying" is identity of being a perfect girl especially of my age . Actually I don't consider this as being strong. Instead I feel like I am the most helpless person because others can throw their frustration out through crying but I can't .

Just wanna ask if this a normal capricorn trait or just my bad 😉??

Awwww....you're just a baby, so that explains it. When I was about your age and for a long time after, I was the same way. I sincerely thought something was wrong with me...like I had no feelings and folks thought I was the most unemotional and cold hearted person ever, but I wasn't. I just didn't let little things bother me at the time, especially if it was nothing I could do about it. Well, except for animals. I've always had a soft spot for animals. I would cry at the drop of a dime if I saw a hurt or abused animal, and I still do..lol. However, now that I'm older, I'm a little more emotional than I used to be. Sometimes I can still come across a little cold, but it's only if someone has pissed me off

I very really cry ever... I see it as a sign of weakness. Perhaps caps see it as a sign of weakness too? Or perhaps earth signs are not that emotional? But caps are usually very strong. Perhaps they tend to hold a lot of emotion in? Are you like this? I've only encountered 3 caps in my life. An ex-boyfriend of many years back, an ex boss and ex work colleague. I always found them rather controlled, unemotional and quite cold to be honest. But that is only from my perspective.

I think it depends on the issue..my husband is a Cap with a whole lot of Aries and as hard and unemotional as he is, if a good tear jerker movie comes on, he's always the first to teaR up..lol. I remember when Titantic came out and we went to the Theatre to see the movie and at the end when Kate Winslet went to grab Leo DiCaprio's hand and he slowly fell to the bottom, he was all out crying..lol..I was like..WTH..really dude....JSMH.

I think it's normal for capricorn. I don't cry often either. Especially not in front of other people.

The side effect of not being able to cry, is not being able to show excitement either.

Thats Actually so sweet 🙂

Uh, I'm NOT a Capricorn and I don't cry very easily. I've been told that if I'm seen crying, something is WRONG haha.

One, who gives a shit if society tells you that you should cry more? Who cares if others think you're cold hearted? They're assholes who don't understand that everyone handles things differently. If they're offended by your lack of reaction, they can simply go fuck themselves. Chances are, they're drama whores anyway.

There is nothing "wrong" with you because you're an individual who doesn't cry as easily as others. There is, however, something wrong with them if they're going to give you shit for not behaving just like they do. They must live in a very self absorbed world if they think everyone should be doing things as they do.

It depends.

As much as ive been hurt in my situation with my guy friend in the back of my mind i think its silly to cry over a guy, so if im emotional over that ill use some other sad situation to think about to release then i think some more and just find it all silly to tear up over.

Ill cry over death.

I get very emotional over spiritual things or symbolism. Not sure if i can explain it right, but i was fighting back tears at my cousins graduation recently. Its like witnessing how disciplined he's been and what he had to go through to graduate just made me proud and emotional. It also is a chapter closed in his life and on to the next...like a new beginning. I fought back tears the entire hour and thought *this cant be a good thing.*

I think i was teary eyed too because i wish i could have that moment again to do things differently. Idk, but i was a mess.

Cap moon here and I can only cry out of too much frustration or hopelessness. For the rest, I never cry even though I'm sensitive as hell.

Sometimes I even think "This is too much, I should be crying to release it all" but then I indeed say no to crying. Weird.

and Inana04.. Interesting and deep stuff

First and foremost, people who call it heartless not to cry are morons(...and I'm being nice here). Crying does not equal feeling emotions. Crying is just one way of getting an outlet for whatever it might have been that caused it(sadness? joy?)

I cry at times, but not very often - not ashamed of crying or of not crying. We all handle emotions differently, that's a fact - just keep being you(crying or no crying or a little bit of both) and it will be alright.

I don't cry that often, but I do cry. When something is really really bothering deeply emotions things I'll cry. And after the cry I'll feel so much better. Born anew, so for me I need to cry. I NEVER cry in front of people. I'll be damned if I do that. But when you said it right ... hard to show excitement too. I'm not a really smiley person. I smile more with the eyes.

Not crying does not equal not being able to show excitement, imo. I have seen a lot of evindece to the contrary.
