how easy is it to make you cry?

it's nigh on impossible to make me cry in front of anyone, especially in a work environment but if there's even a nano-second of sadness or a touching moment on a tv show or in a movie...even a goddamn commercial, i'm in absolute bits, lol.

my gem sister is completely over the top. we went to see tarzan with my son when he was about 2 and the film had just started..obviously the sad bit about poor baby tarzan being all alone in the jungle..my sister was going for it!! i mean HOWLING!! it was so embarrassing for me but my son was more transfixed by her bawling than he was the movie, lol.

my aries daughter is completely stone-faced. we sat and watched 'titanic' for the zillionth time the other day and while i was sitting there with tears streaming down my face....even though i virtually know the script word for word...she remained un-moved...patting me and saying 'it's just a movie mum'.

i was channel hopping the other day and caught the last remaining minutes of one of those home makeover shows. an english one. it was the reveal moment. i had no clue who the people were or their circumstances but the second they entered their transformed house, i was crying my eyes out.

this isn't very scorpy is it....i'm suspecting libran moon interference here.

are any of you scorps cry babies?

its funny you post this question. i wont shed tears in front of anyone in an altercation. im the ultimate mean stubborn ass... but... i am ashamed of what i am about to say next...


i cried at Wallace's & Gromit's 'Curse of the Were-Rabbit'; when Wallace was almost going to die from his injuries i cried balls. my mom and i was watching it and she started teasing me. "i know you're not over there crying at a cartoon." yeh i was. i grew up watching wallace and gromit - wallace never did anything to anyone. the worst part was i was about 21 or 22 at the time....*sigh*

and i cried when ET left and flew over the moon. i didnt wanna see the little guy go. but i was a child at this unfortunate tear fest.

LOL!!! that is soooo cute stinger!!

my dad is the hardest man on the planet. virgo. he is the abosolute double of anthony hopkins and does a great hannibal lecter impression, lol. when he watched ET, it was the single only time i ever say him cry. me and my brothers couldn't believe it. ET said he wanted to go home and my dad was distraught!!! LOL!!!

everyone needs to let it out sometimes. i'm with you elle...never in front of anyone!! ultimate sign of weakness. it's part of martial arts training so that you don't give in to pain when fighting...if you get injured, leave the dojo before you show it.

sometimes it's good to indulge it. good to let everything out. like therapy.

oh yeah...tears of laughter are the best aren't they?? you don't tend to get the puffy eyes either, lol.

it's nice to know hardcore scorps still have a little squishy centre although the common theme is DO NOT CRY IN FRONT OF ANYONE!!

i don't mind crying in front of my kids..especially my son cos he gives me big hugs being huge (although everyone is next to me, lol). but when he was 13 and i was right in the middle of a very intensely acrimonious split, i found my boy who is a stoic virgo, sobbing his heart out in his room. he told me it made him sad that he hated his father but couldn't help it....my ex had just called him some really horrible names as i wasn't around to take the abuse and it all got too much for him.

there is nothing worse in this world than seeing your kids in despair like that. there's no bandaid solution. even thinking about that now makes me very upset. 😢

The dress is ok ... I like the shoes

my daughter has confessed an emotional response to 'the notebook'. hooorah!! she has FEEEEEELINGS, lol.

okay, this is so "libra venus".....lol

the last two movies I cried over.....

Eat Pray Love....the "love" part when she was confronted by him on the beach. I was a blubbering idiot. For those that seen it and for those that have my silly venus, you KNOW exactly what I'm talking about. She actually has to *express* her feelings. LOL

One Day....cried thru the whole damn thing, IN the theatre (THANK GAWD IT WAS DARK). Two best friends over the span of 20 years who finally come together as a couple and then....(won't spoil it but it was DEVESTATING)

I'm a sap for movies.

...oh, and i did cry during "Pay it Forward" too. 😛

I just saw one day on tv, that was terrible

I'm not a scorp but had scorp friends and family also boyfriend and mom is a scorp. I had a scorp homegirl I new she would get around me and talk about everything ,she played so tuff and hard but will get around me and get soooo mad and cry, my mother and boyfriend like that I think it had to do with me being a cancer and I can get to the core of things. Every scorp I no said to me when they get emotion that they never got like this with anyone. Scorps are emotional but they only reveal it with people they comfortable with. One scorp told me that she always cry a lone. Sometimes when she was piss off I can tell she was crying on the in side.

Only when alone. If a person says something that I find hurtful I will lash out like a hungry lion and bite their head off, never shedding tear . A month, two or even 6 months later I will be alone and the water works will start. A movie, specific line in a tv show, a song, anything could be the trigger to set me off .
