I want to applaud you. You took the words out of my mouth (or fingertips). I've seen my husband cry while he was telling me about how horrible it was being at war in Iraq and finding out his wife at the time had been cheating on him for crack money and finally had left him for another woman. After 15 months of being in hell on earth, he wasn't even going to get to go home to his wife. He cried...I cried. He also cried at our wedding, which I thought was awesome. And one time he hurt my feelings really bad because I had to go to the hospital and he dropped me off instead of coming in with me because he wanted cigarettes. He KNOWS that I hate cigarettes more than just about anything and he left me alone and in pain at a hospital without my cellphone to go feed his addiction. I told him how that made me feel, and how bad it hurt me, and I was crying, which made him cry because he knew how bad he'd broken my heart. That's manly, sensitive crying there.
Now...when my dad gets drunk he cries because he's proud of me, or because the dogs are so cute, or because he's so sad he didnt' spend more time with me as a kid...that's wierd crying...
