Maybe you need to cry. Maybe crying is a kind of emotional catharsis for you (it's good to purge once in a while). Crying is as normal and natural as laughing. It's funny how nobody mentions they're laughing too much, or are having laughing spells. Personally, I put both "acts" on the same level of emotional release. So go ahead, and cry all you want, for cryin' out loud (no pun intended).
I stay away from people who don't cry (or laugh, for that matter).
