Strange things that make you emotional...
 
So really cute things make me want to cry.

Like today at work, there was an old man who is a regular at the store I work at and he always looks for me to talk to me. I was helping another customer with some stuff and I turned around and he was like 3 inches away from my face and waved all excitedly at me. I was trying to cut out a background for a fish tank for the customer I was dealing with, and he like held it out for me whilst I was cutting it. Then when I cut it, he looked at it (the wrong side, lol) and was like, 'WOW, thats beautiful! you've made a great choice there!' (there was only one option, too)

anyway, he just makes me tear up a little, because he and his wife are so cute and you can just tell that they are both lonely.

Am I the only one who gets all teary at old people? I'd never be able to work in an old folks home because of it.

Also, are there odd things that make you emotional?

Most of the songs that are played on the radio have made me tear up a bit. :joker: I find old people so cute too and also tiny babies make me so emotional, they are so strange and perfect at the same time!

Mainly books & movies. When a character achieves something against the odds and finds happiness or the like, that gets me.

But other times just watching an ad can make me tear up.

I work in a farm shop on a saturday and every week an old lady comes in and buys a sack of potatoes and I normally take it to her car for her and her husband is disabled but he's always so nice and says thank you to me. Anyway at Christmas they bought two bags and I put them in the boot and as I was about to leave the old man called me and handed me a card and a tub of chocolates and told me the sweets were for everyone but the card was for me so I opended it after they had gone and it just said 'To amy merry christmas thank you for always helping you are a lovely young lady' and it broke my heart because I never really thought about it before but it was so nice of them and it just made me cry they had gone out of their way.

I speak to them every week now, and know their names and idk they're just really good people

...just looking into the faces of my sons and realising what great human beings they are and even if they weren't my children, how proud I would be to know them...also, at work..hearing the children practising their singing is the most heart-lifting of things...

Listening to American Trilogy by Elvis Presley and Barcelona by Freddie Mercury.

It's the build up of the music and the power of both the music and words, they get me sobbing everytime:)

They're both beautiful songs, my dad wants American Trilogy when he passes, but sometimes even animation gets me in tears, the ending of watership down with the song Bright Eyes kills me, my kids (who are now teenagers) think i'm bonkers:laugh:

The scene from 'Casablanca' where the 'Free French' patriots defy their Nazi oppressors and drown out their singing with 'La Marseillaise'. Gets me every time.

anything involving emotional moments between mothers and sons. always makes me emotional. i think the relationship between mothers and sons is on a way deeper level than any other type of relationship.

i think it's because we live in a patriarchal society, so it's like role reversal, but also it's a relationship that is unique because boys see women in a totally different way than society portrays women, and mother's see boys in a totally different way than society portrays, it's like this weird moment for boys and mothers before they start seeing women as weak, and also for mothers a chance to see men as truly vulnerable.

That relationship is really special.

As a gay man i do genuinely wonder if i had a son, and he turned out to be heterosexual, would he truly be able to respect women and understand women without having a mother in his life. there is so much misogyny in society, i would worry that he didn't have a positive female authoritative role model to respect. so many of his friends and society would be giving him so many negative messages about women, i would worry about that.
