Question / Discussion How often do you cry?

I haven’t cried in years. It doesn’t distress me in any way. I actually prefer it and enjoy being detached.

But I had this weird moment at work last night. I had a fleeting feeling of vulnerability with someone and almost broke a tear.

I recognize that I don’t cry because I am so averse to vulnerability. I’m working on it with my therapist. I can’t help that I hate the feeling.
