I think just about every "I cried over xyz" secret is a big fat LIE. :|

I think first it's about people's tendency to over exaggerate things. And then this part is just me I guess, (and this is someone that cries during sad movies ect ect) but I find it really hard to believe that someone 'cries every night'/'cries every time'. I can see crying the first time...but if it's literally every time then I'm thinking it's either or lie or this person is really, really emotionally unstable.

Well, I'm sure some people do embellish what they write in their secrets just a little bit, but just because somebody gets upset when they're reminded of something, even if it is fictional that doesn't make them unstable. It just means they could be easily affected by it, or find it difficult to move on from, or find it easier to express their emotions through crying.

I feel that there's a difference between being upset about something and actually crying over it. Crying being that it's more of an extreme expression of emotion than feeling bad about something.

Not really, I think it's more with how you express your emotions. I rarely open up to people, and cry like once or twice a year, even if I am really upset. Just because somebody cries more than I do, or more than what you'd expect of them that doesn't make them unstable. It just means they cry a lot. That, or they're a crybaby.

I cry in lots of movies/series (though that ain't a secret, you just need to go to the movies with me). Why would it be a lie? Some people are just more emotionally opened than others, some are just touched in different ways than others.

Just gonna quote myself...

Well, I can vouche for the fact that I'm emotionally stable (enough), and when it comes to reality I rarely cry at all, but when it comes to fandom, for some reason, I have no walls whatsoever. I cry a lot over my fandoms. ...Well, when they're sad, of course. I don't just burst into tears just 'cause my favourite TV show is on. XD;

See, I think that's unfair, even having read your comments about why you think so. Personally, in real life, I'm pretty closed about my emotions, though I consider myself very emotionally balanced and rational. But for certain things I watch, read, or play, they just strike a chord. I think that's a good thing, personally. And some people might not cry when the chord is struck, but some people do, and that's fine as well; it's just different reactions to the same thing. Different things strike different chords.

I do think you have somewhat of a point on exaggeration, but usually when I say I cried at something, I mean that I got teary and wept a bit, not that I went all-out snivels and sobs. Maybe some people do. That's still fine. Again, different reactions.

I don't cry a lot in real life. I don't cry at funerals, usually. I cried at Wall-E. I cry every time I finish playing Hotel Dusk. I've even cried at some admittedly-beautiful online videos (Where The Hell Is Matt?, specifically). For me, it's not the CRYING BUCKETS so much as the a few tears and thoughts. And it's not always sadness, either ... half of why I cried at Wall-E was because it was just a beautiful movie, all told.
