As a guy, I don't cry.
Today I lost it.
I mean completely lost it. (premature death of one of the best people I've ever had the honor to know.)
I left my office, sat in my car an sobbed for ten minutes. Her loss to me is unfathomable.
Nobody knew I cried. (except now everyone reading this; I don't care.)

Apparently, caring about my health and my appearance is enough to make cranky old ladies tell people I'm trying to "trade up"... And then, I was just starting to think I looked okay today, and instead I'm told that I'm "starting to look like a woman with loose morals."
I hate this so much.
Wait... what?! Who's saying this *kitten*? People IRL?
Yes. At church even.
I'm a believer, but in all honesty church people are some of the absolute worst, they can be extremely judgmental. Don't let it get to you, a lot of them are miserable and just put on a good front when they walk through those doors.
I agree & am living proof of that. I believe in God, I go to church & I consistently practicing my faith. Grew up in a family who are very actively serving our church & whenever they talk about it, all I hear is whining about their co-workers there who does this and that. Some of them are the worst people that I have known in my life disguising as an angel. Like when they saw me wearing a bikini at a beach, they scolded me for trying so hard when I just look like a skank. Another one is when I was very tired & wasn't in mood to join them in prayer. They told me that I'm a bad person just because of that. The latest one is when they saw a photo of my bf who has tattoos & they immediately told me to stay away from him because he look like a convict.
Of course I didn't follow their advice.1 -

I am so sorry for your loss and I echo those sentiments, *kitten* cancer
Thanks.
There's a long story behind our relationship that has played out like a Shakespearean tragedy.
She wasn't supposed to die; not this early. Truth is, I've cried everyday this week about it.
... this too shall pass, right?
Sorry to hear man, like all things it will pass, just gotta hold on to the good memories, take it one day at a time.0 -

I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sure she's in good hands now watching over you. We may not see them but our deceased loved ones will NEVER leave us & will always be there for us. Sharing this to you based on my real life experience with my brother who died 4 years ago but whenever I need someone to lift up my spirits, guide me when I'm out biking in dangerous busy streets or when I'm sad, I can sense he's there with me.
How I wish I can go there and give you a hug right now.2 -
Just calm down and lighten up people please no offense1

These cries aren't loud and sobbing though, just quiet tears. Im pretty sure its just my bodies way of relieving stress.
I don't cry too often anymore but sometimes I will just zone out and stare out a window, or at a corner of the room. The kids think I'm weird but really I'm just dying a little bit inside and trying to hold it in.
There used to be an ad here, way long ago of a kid at a window and she said "I like when it rains because then no one can see me cry"
I confess these confessions are making me think of this ad0 -

I used to be really bad about not letting any emotion out. 6 months ago something happened that changed my life and I can't control my emotions anymore. I've been forcing myself lately to keep those emotions in check because I need to keep it together for everyone else. I'm afraid if I let them out once I won't be able to keep it together anymore.4 -

My kids think I'm weird too.

I'm ultra sensitive and I cry very easily. If it's over stuff like a sappy movie or tv show, I actually enjoy a good cry. If it's for real life stuff, I HATE it. I don't try to control it anymore like I used to because it only makes it worse for me. So I cry if I have to. *shrugs* I also hate when people say "you're crying over THAT?" completely diminishing what I'm feeling. I used to get that from ex-husband a lot.2

I confess I've been an emotional mess here lately and I'm ready to get back to being my normal self.6

Tell those old heifers God doesn't like busy bodies and you'll pray for them.
I smiled and channeled my snarky southern mama and said "well bless your heart... I think I look nice, it's a shame you don't agree." Then came home, made sure my son was okay, and cried for 10 minutes.
Having been both a PK and a Pastor, I have found about the only thing you can do it just smile and move on. Unless your husband is willing to "rock" the boat with these ladies, it will just keep going. In some churches the pastor has enough "power" to gently put these ladies in their place, but in others, you have to endure it.
I know that my father (and I tried to do the same) made sure that the church knew that he was "the pastor" and not his wife and as such should be treated with the same attitude and expectations as any other regular member of the church. She was not to be put on a pedestal nor was she to be treated like a servant.4 -

I confess that I've come to the realization that I was not as special as I thought I was to someone... It hurts. The pain that comes with that is more than what I can bear.2
