OK so I figuredI owed some people an apology on here, mainly Justyn. but anyway I get a call from you know who saying that she is borrowing money to put in the account that we share still untill I am able to get home again and close that account out. For some ungodly reason I just broke down, don't know why, I am usualy pretty solid about these kinds of things. I have not cried in years. Well since my son was born anyway and he is 13 now.

My question is this. Is it normal for it too just hit one day and you have a breakdown and dont wanna do crap but sit and think? Is it normal for a guy to cry like that.

AND BEFORE YOU NOMINATE I AM PITY SEEKING kiss my toosh. I just don't understand wth is going on, I think I know what a woman feels like when she enters the change of life.

On a more happy note I did get a speeding ticket and a HOS violation today. Only cost me $195.00laugh

The last time I knew men were humans too............so who is to say that a man is not allowed to break down and cry........we all have bad and good days......its takes a mature person to post an apology and admit that he too can makes mistakes...........so heres a hug (((((((((BEARBAIT)))))))))

Ok but when this first happend when she told me she found someone else I had the attitude of what is is and what will be will be, didnt really cry. I was kind of pissed but thats it, Is it normal too have a late reaction to that sort of thing. I just dont wanna think I am having a crazy period and visit athens ohio

Hey I think it takes a heck of a man to admit he cryed. Nothing wrong with that. Just goes to show that men do have feelings too. Hope things get better for you.

Bear, I think you are pretty normal. I think men have delayed emotional reaction to things that affect them. We blow things off and then later it comes back and hits us hard.

In your case I don't think its "pity me" ...you have a genuine situation where it is finally catching up with you emotionally. It is not going to be easier either...stay the bubbly person that you are and you will be fine

Hang in there Bearbait. Sometimes something out of nowhere will initiate a trigger that brings out all the jumbled feelings you try to keep under control. This happened to me last year. I would be standing at the sink doing dishes or something really mundane, and just burst out in tears.

Bear, it's perfectly normal. There are some guys who hang onto archaic beliefs about men not expressing emotions, blah blah blah, but those guys are all my dad's age and will be dead soon anyway.

Frankly, I'd be more worried about the mental state of a guy who never did cry. Because there's something a little scary going on with that....
