Weird is me

[jamie15]

You know, one of the weirdest things about me, in my opinion, is that I can't cry at movies. I just can't. No matter how sad and heartbreaking or horrible, there's never any water in my eyes. I do get horribly sad and tend to spend the rest of the day in a rather depressed mood unless someone distracts me, but ... I can't cry. What's wrong with me?!

Like today: I was watching Titanic (yeah, I know ... I'm such a girl) and I felt really horrified at all those scenes with people falling off the boat and dying in the cold water ... it made me feel really sick. But I couldn't do the obvious thing and cry. Come to think of it, I've never cried at funerals either - what the hell's wrong with me?!!

By the way, what a weird reaction: I had an exam in the afternoon and the first thing I do when I come home? Watch Titanic. -.- Veeery subtle, my beloved subconscious ...

I don't think it's weird. The only movie I've ever cried over is The Lion King when Mufasa...y'know what. I'm not going to think about that. It's the only scene that's ever caused tears for me (hell, I can't even think about it too hard without prickling a bit). Other sad scenes in movies just make me, well, sad.

Oh my god - I know :(! I think that's the saddest scene I've ever seen in a movie! I tend to skip over it, whenever I'm rewatching the Lion King ( it's my favorite movie :D!).

I've got so many friends who DO cry at every romantic/tragic scene in a movie that I sometimes feel really weird. The most I can manage in these situations is "Yeah, that's sad/happy ... want a tissue?" -.- (but to tell you the truth, I sometimes do wonder if they're really crying because it's so sad, or because they somehow feel like they should be crying ...)

By the way, I've got much, much love for the icon :D!

I don't think it's weird, either. I cry really easily, but only at happy moments (?!), so Titanic was tear-free for me, too. Good exam therapy, though! I hope you did well!

Reeeally good exam therapy :D - made me realise how insignificant it is if I fail or pass one exam ... But I do think that I passed that one :D!
