And he cried when he saw the first ultrasound and our little girl waved at him...those are the only times in 4 years but I am sure there will be more.

He was at work when he got the call and rushed home to pick me up. As soon as he walked in the door he broke down in my arms. His eyes were misty on our wedding day but he didn't shed any tears. sarahmc on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry/page/2#post-24008 Tue, 29 Nov 2011 21:11:04 +0000 sarahmc 24008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I've seen DH cry plenty of times. We've been together for over 8 years, we started dating while still in high school so we were very immature and fought a lot. He is kind of emotional so he has a hard time holding it back. It actually happened a few days ago when we got into a huge fight, he got upset after realizing how much he hurt me. This doesn't happen often, it's probably been over a year or two since he's cried during a fight. He also cried on our wedding day when we did our first look, that cry was sweet =) Crisark on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry/page/2#post-23028 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 13:46:13 +0000 Crisark 23028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I saw him cry at my grandmothers funeral and services. It was super hard to see him break down. Made me feel so helpless.

When we were told his grandmother had 48 hours to live due to an infection. (she survived the 48 hours and is still going strong) ecogirl on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry/page/2#post-22987 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 13:22:55 +0000 ecogirl 22987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My husband is more than 20 years older than me and I think he is just from the generation where men hid their tears. I've seen him sad and I've seen him elated. When our son was born he just kept staring at him, holding him and his eyes were teary but it was a happy teary. He likes being the strong provider type plus I cry enough for both of us :) Rescuemom10 on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry/page/2#post-22981 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 13:17:05 +0000 Rescuemom10 22981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I think maybe two times. Once when a relative died, and then I can recall maybe one other time over something else...

It was really moving to see. His grandmother (who was his primary caregiver) passed last April, and he cried then. I've made him cry a fair few times too, during arguments. I'm kind of a meanie. Ok, I'm pretty vicious sometimes. But not in a derogatory way, more in the "you-only-care-about-yourself" way.

Not very often, and he tries to hide it, but I have seen him :) rachiecakes on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-22588 Sun, 27 Nov 2011 20:54:37 +0000 rachiecakes 22588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I have - in the 12 years together, maybe once or twice. I ask him if he'll cry when the baby's born, he doesn't think so, lol swgal on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-22574 Sun, 27 Nov 2011 20:35:57 +0000 swgal 22574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm shocked with how many haven't seen their DH cry. Mine is a big time crier - ha! These days my daughter just has to look at him cutely and he's done. AmeliaBedelia on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-22568 Sun, 27 Nov 2011 20:22:45 +0000 AmeliaBedelia 22568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I saw him cry when his grandpa went into the hospital and at his grandfather's funeral (2009). He also cried a bit at my grandfather's funeral earlier this month. He has gotten misty-eyed before over other things...he almost cried when I was being wheeled back for surgery. Hardly ever does he actually cry though. These episodes mentioned are quite far apart. I wonder if he'll cry over babies? Hm. ETA: He's seen me cry a minimum of 3948854982304 times. I cry a lot. Lol. cupcakemama on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-22548 Sun, 27 Nov 2011 19:37:15 +0000 cupcakemama 22548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DH cried when our LO was born and he teared up one day when our first dance song was playing on the radio. He is quite open emotionally but not a big crier. Good thing because I am! afarrell on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-22538 Sun, 27 Nov 2011 19:30:18 +0000 afarrell 22538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I've seen my husband cry several times. Back when his Grandmother died, and if we've had a couple of fights and if he was that upset he would tear up and be upset. Besides that, he's very calm and holds it together :) I'm not really a big crier either. I've maybe cried a handful of times.

It has to be something really upsetting to get him to cry. McSarah on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-22519 Sun, 27 Nov 2011 18:35:06 +0000 McSarah 22519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Maybe twice in almost 5 years. Once when they had to put down his childhood dog, and the second time when we watched Marley & Me. He loves his doggies!! Stosbet on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-22514 Sun, 27 Nov 2011 18:01:08 +0000 Stosbet 22514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My FI constantly tells me about how he doesn't cry and isn't outwardly emotional. He tells me he wont cry at the wedding and he wont cry at the birth of our children.. but a few months back when our hedgehog died, he broke down and sobbed.. I held him tight and we cried together. mrsjyw on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-22506 Sun, 27 Nov 2011 16:49:47 +0000 mrsjyw 22506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DH is not really a "crier." The first time I ever saw him cry was two Halloweens ago when we put down his childhood dog, Pepper. He cried on our wedding day with wet eyes filled to the brim, but the only time I truly saw him cry was that day we put Pepper to rest. Mrs. Pickle on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-14694 Sat, 12 Nov 2011 20:20:48 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 14694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I've seen my DH cry when he proposed, when I walked down the aisle, while he was dancing with his mom, during a couple of our fights. Most recently I saw him cry at his grandfather's funeral while his mother was speaking. He is very in touch with his emotions, more so than I am most times. I think it has a lot to do with him being raised by two women. Crying does not make him feel weak. When we first started dating I thought him being emotional was annoying, but it is something that I have grown to love and appreciate about him. MsMini on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-14607 Sat, 12 Nov 2011 13:51:18 +0000 MsMini 14607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I have never seen my DH cry, he is really the strong/stoic one, and I am the emotional one. If he ever cried in front of me I think it would shake me up because he just doesn't cry. .twist. on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-14556 Sat, 12 Nov 2011 11:59:06 +0000 .twist. 14556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I've seen my husband cry when his children where wrongly taken from him and he didn't get to see them for 8 months. Throughout those 8 months I saw him cry a few times. Otherwise, he's not a crier. L2sweetpea on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-14548 Sat, 12 Nov 2011 11:35:04 +0000 L2sweetpea 14548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I've seen my SO cry 2X. Once after a very traumatizing accident, and that was pretty much all of us bawling, and the other time after his grandfather passed. He teared up when our daughter was born, at our wedding, and when he proposed. MH.Abroad on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-14480 Sat, 12 Nov 2011 08:43:41 +0000 MH.Abroad 14480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I have seen him cry a few times. The biggest time was when some old memories were brought up of the Kosovo refugee crises he experienced as a child and some of the deaths and other things he saw. He's also cried a couple times after fights when he didn't realize how hurtful his words were and he was sorry for hurting me. I cry all the time though...

Before that, I'd seen him cry a bit when things were getting rough with our relationship, but that's because he tends to hold things in until he has to let it out some how. 808love on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-14418 Sat, 12 Nov 2011 01:17:33 +0000 808love 14418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @mrbee: So sorry to hear about your sad time with Sparky passing. I haven't wanted to have a pet partly b/c I don't want to experience the grief of such a loss. :( My SO cried a lot at our wedding. So much that I had to hand him my Kleenex. So lots of tears of joy. Oh, and we had a m/c after just a few days of pregnancy... that was really hard on both of us. anewme on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-14260 Fri, 11 Nov 2011 18:10:56 +0000 anewme 14260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ No I have nevEr seen dh Cry in our 11 years together. I thought I'd get close to it when we Put our dog to sleep and once again when we were going through this particular rough patch in our relationship early on, but he didn't afterall. In a way I'm kind of glad that I haven't seen him cry. I don't think I would know what to do. mediagirl on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-14162 Fri, 11 Nov 2011 15:53:31 +0000 mediagirl 14162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My husband is not afraid of his emotions. He got choked up and cried a bit at our ceremony when saying our vows. (In the process, he got our officiant started and then I'm standing there telling both of them, "It's ok, it's ok, this is what we're saying next...) I love that he cries at sad animal commercials like the SPCA commercials. He is a huge animal lover and seeing any animal in pain or in danger makes him so sad. He cried when he found out one of his best friends (he had two) had a brain tumor. He cried again (good tears) when it sounded like he was going to be ok. Then he cried one last time when his friend didn't make it. It was heartbreaking. tequiero21 on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-14158 Fri, 11 Nov 2011 15:48:45 +0000 tequiero21 14158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ i've only seen my hubby cry for real once. we just kind of cried together when we found out we lost our baby angel. we were trying for so long and the whole pregnancy was so surreal and then she was taken away. =( he's seen me cry a million times.... at least. PearlBee on "Have you seen your SO cry?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-seen-your-so-cry#post-14149 Fri, 11 Nov 2011 15:42:38 +0000 PearlBee 14149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I've seen my husband shed a couple of tears, but I've never seen him break down. Luckily for him, he's not (to this point) had any truly heartrending events in his life. No deaths of family members, at least to whom he was close, or anything like that. Unlike me, as I've had five deaths in my family in the past eight years. Plus the death of my dog.
