YOU’RE A CRIER. You just are. It’s a fact of life.
1. You have certain triggers that nine times out of ten will lead you to weep
Seeing people being happy. Seeing people being sad. Elderly people. Old dogs. Oh, here we go again.
2. And your friends are mostly unsurprised by now
“You’re crying, aren’t you.”
“NO! *sniff* …Yes.”
3. You’ve had to go off and have words with yourself so you don’t cause a scene in public
*blinks furiously*
4. This time of year is the WORST because of all the soppy Christmas ads
And you fall for every single one. This McDonald’s ad, for example, plays you like a fiddle:
5. But you’ll cry at normal ads too because jeez
Just… leave me here.
6. Pixar movies are your downfall
You have to prepare yourself to watch Up because the first ten minutes are so emotionally taxing.
7. And weddings? Forget about it
It’s your boyfriend’s cousin’s wedding and you are crying more than the bride’s family. Mess.
8. You’ve made strangers uncomfortable in the cinema with your excessive weeping
Brooklyn was very sad, OK? You heartless fiends.
9. And you actually prefer watching things alone so you can sob openly
“Stuart Little just wants a family. He just wants a family!” – You, decades out of your childhood, watching the Big Big Movie on RTÉ.
10. But you’ve come to accept that you just are this gal from Mean Girls
Express those feelings. This is your truth.
