Do girls really cry over a guy?


I suppose this is a really dumb question, but do girls really cry over a guy?

I would think there are more than enough guys who would want to get with them, and I'm not talking about a one night stand either.

It seems to me(as I've read), the female has almost complete control over a relationship.

No surprise I'm a single guy making these comments.

Well, I guess it's an unfortunate fact that both sexes lament their relationship problems. And that's a big part of what makes growing up so hard.

It's all a piece of Mystic Pizza.

Hard to explain human emotion and the draw of interpersonal relationships after reading this statement, but I'll give it a shot. Ok, first off, people are not like matchbox cars. Let's see, maybe try reading poetry or seeing a few operas. Madame Butterfly is a good one. She did more than just cry when her man left her.

Well, I do like to read poetry and sometimes try to write my own, not very well however.

One of my favorite poems is "Because she would ask me why I loved her" by Christopher Brennan.

Or John Keats' letter to To Fanny Brawne 1819, where he declares that "Love is my religion, I could die for love, I could die for you."

And Emily Dickinson's


IT ’S such a little thing to weep,
So short a thing to sigh;
And yet by trades the size of these
We men and women die!



And I have seen Madame Butterfly and am aware of the tragic ending.

But I also think of Turandot the ice princess posing riddles to her many suitors and putting to death(by beheading) all those who answer incorrectly.

Maybe it's just my perspective as a single male looking for a relationship, but all I was trying to say is that I think there are plenty of guys for a girl to choose from, who would be more than happy to be chosen. It is the guy who figuratively risks "losing his head" and being turned down. When was the last time you've heard of a guy turning a girl down, does it even happen? I imagine women do it all the time to well intentioned men. I suppose I've done my fair share of crying over some girl(although I don't really cry) and knowing this I can only wonder why a girl would ever cry over a guy when there are so many who would love to be with them. But anyway...

Finally, in an effort to lighten the mood a bit, with all due respect and good humor intended, people may actually be a bit like matchbox cars. We get together and compare each other, size each other up. Sometimes we look under the hood and examine the finer points/details of each model. And sometimes we smash into one another for fun, but when we go our separate ways we realize the damage that has been done.

Such are the woes of life I suppose, it's all just a part of growing.

The simple answer is yes- girls do cry over guys. Especially at the age in this movie, when you think the pain is gonna last forever. I cried over my share of boys, and my 19-year old daughter has cried over a few too. So things really haven't changed....

reply

Yes, absolutely. Especially in Kat's case, where she had sex with him (most likely her first time) and then he turned out to be a different man than she thought he was.

reply

A little late to the party, here, but things have changed -horrifically- even since we were kids...

These days, it seems, women (think) they can sleep with anyone: just slap on a condom and you're good to go; until they run into a complete idiot (which is now happening left-right-and-center - but, that elimination process is all but gone) & guys, on the other hand, they couldn't care less about the girls - because she will change her mind tomorrow.

It's like a perpetual spiral of death (of society, lol) & not only that women don't care about it - they're enforcing it (the whole deal), by doing this feminist agenda << which, where is that -even- coming from (ffs); give 'em a hand and they take the whole arm, lolz.

^^ I'm sure there's a (much, hehe) better way to explain all that - but, it's the simple truth... Tried to make it brief. xD

You started to make some good points and then seemed to get a little lost. 

Yes, humans cry over other humans. Have you ever heard a song in your entire life?

A young, 18-20 year old girl will definitely cry over a guy like that.

reply

Not only do girls cry over guys, women cry over men. Women get left, too, no matter what they say about them being in control of the relationship.

reply

Yeah, I'm sure it happens, breakups and divorces happen every day and I'm sorry for that, but I got dumped because I didn't make enough money, even though I gave the girl everything I had and more. When she was with me she didn't pay a dime for anything, and I took on a ton of credit card debt, many thousands of dollars worth, more than I ever had in my life. I didn't cry, but I did feel very bad. She on the other hand had no compunction in taking me for all I was worth, bleeding me dry and then leaving me for debt/dead. Succubus.

reply

AND don't forget of coming up with complex, convoluted, excuses, justifications - of how the guy is this-and-that... It's difficult, I'm old(er) and after tons of girls - where only a couple weren't maniacs - it gets hard not to think how women are disgusting (lmao), when not having found a soulmate. :))

*hihi
