Yes, I do find crying embarrassing. It is funny that we all usually feel embarrassed by having an honest reaction to our emotions. I find that I want to cry for many reasons... sadness, frustration, anger. Yet, I think are all afraid of looking weak if we cry. It is silly, but yet, I think most of us feel that way.
Not really but i do have an issue crying in front of just anyone. It's said problems don't have a market and so why publicize. With closed ones it is ok but not with everybody.
yes, especially in front of the public when other adults are around but I don'tic or feel shy to cry in front of my kids. They console me.
I am very embarrassed to cry in front of anyone apart from my husband and two grown sons. I don't think that crying is a form of weakness but it upsets other people and could make them feel awkward. Also, I am reserved by nature and feel that by crying I give too much of how I'm feeling away. There are people who do see any show of emotion as a potential weakness and look for a chink in your armour. To this end I would say, beware.
Crying at a sad or touching film is different to crying because of something that has happened in your life. It's a temporary thing but could be useful in examining which emotion is actually making you cry and which memories are stimulated,
A good cry is very healing so not something to be avoided whether it embarrasses us or not.
