The other day my friend told me that during her fitness class, she suddenly and without cause just burst into tears, forcing her to leave early, and obviously making her feel very embarrassed. When I asked her what had happened, she said she didn’t know. She wasn’t dealing with PMS, but it was as if at that moment she just couldn't hold in the tears.

Funny man Jack Black recently said he's gone sentimental since becoming a dad. The comedian and father of two
admitted to even crying at commercials. Ads do a number on lots of new parents, perhaps it's the adorable, chubby cheeked bald babies they have in them, or the angelic infants sleeping that make the tear ducts of moms and dads loosen.

Often, there’s a social stigma attached to men who cry. But of course, men get sad, too, and sometimes that sadness is reflected in tears. I mean, they’re only human.

As it turns out, we're all a bunch of saps when it comes to just about anything emotional in a movie. But
among the movies you mentioned, a few seemed to really stand out. So check out my compilation of the six movies that make you pull out the tissue box, and cast your vote to decide which is the absolute most likely to make your eyes red rimmed and your nose run.

I’m a sucker for a good drama, and when the seriously sad stuff gets ramped up, I have no shame in just letting the tears dribble down my face. But lately, it’s not just the dramatic moments that get me going; it’s the funny ones too. Something about the goofy, light-hearted scenes
makes me nostalgic for old friends and being a kid again.

Generally speaking, women are more emotional than men, but there is a time and a place to let your feelings show. Since life doesn't stop just because we are at work, sometimes a bad day at the office can be more about personal strife than bad numbers. On the other hand, getting emotional over poor performance isn't all that uncommon yet we all know shedding a tear in front of co-workers, superiors, and subordinates might not be the best idea.

One of these three reality show losers got cut from this week's episode of Design Star on HGTV. I think it's safe to assume that most of us missed the show, so let's take a wild guess: Which one of these designers got eliminated and promptly cried out for Mom? (Michael on the left, Tracee in the middle, or Matt on the right.) Now, don't be too hasty .

The bond that forms between the family dog and the baby of the house is an inevitable and mysterious thing. The dog is usually jealous at first, but eventually grows overprotective of the crying, crapping, crawling, yet oh-so adorable, new rug rat. So is the pup below trying to steal the spotlight from his whining companion or simply trying to soothe the child?

After the
Sex and the City screening last week, several Sugar girls admitted that the movie made them cry. The consensus seemed to be that even those of us who never cried much when we were younger now get choked up very easily by TV shows, weddings, songs — you name it.
I think that many women
cry more often as we get older.
