Hi there:

I was wondering if you ever get caught off guard crying in your most akward moments when you least expect it. At the same time, no one in that situation is mean to you but really your crying is coming from other stresses at an earlier time.

For example:

I ran into a girl who I had a falling out with recently for a birthday party and I along with several others are only beginning to discover how mean she is.

1. She keeps lying about me
2. She told me openly in front of others "Do you hear me, WE...ARE..NOT...friends!"
3. She openly created a whole set of drama by telling others how I did this or that to her.

So I think it has been subconciously bothering me.

Does this ever happen to you?

About the girl: try and google sociopath and narcissist if you have not already done that.

No I do not believe that she is a known sociopath but just someone who I found out to be drama.

Her current diagnose would be a more severe case on the spectrum like us along with other mental disorders.


Still, the point of this topic is do you every cry about situations when you least expect to?


I sometimes will cry when I least expected that I would

I have found that the only time I cry is when I am angry about something and really out of control, but that hasn't happened for a few years because I went on an 'assertiveness' course and it really gave some amazing insights into how to deal with conflict situations. I never cry when I am just sad, even when very close people die.

I used to cry all the time if I did not know how to read certain cues and other types of wordings.


I still do it sometimes when I feel over stimulated next to subconsciously releasing certain situations that just don't plain need to be repressed.

I have a problem with crying in certain situations. One of them is when I have to ask for a favour. I don't know why I get the overwhelming feeling for asking, but I can't help it. I usually try to avoid asking things face to face. I get very anxious even if I have to do it by a text or email etc, but I don't necessarily cry. I think people have noticed that I'm about to burst out crying sometimes and it makes it even worse.
