does it just irritate them more. The reason for my question is when my boyfriend hurts my feelings I cry sometimes (I'm not overly sensitive) and it seems to make him angry. Are most men like this or is it just him being insensitve?

No. Most men are uncomfortable when a woman cries or becomes very emotional in a negative display of emotion because they feel that they must solve problems and some who do not understand women's ways of emoting may feel that she is somehow blaming or accusing him of wrongdoing in a matter.
When the male does not understand the reason for the upset and is unaccustomed to crying as a response, he often may become irritated and respond in anger-- which is the worse thing he can do. It is a communication problem characteristic of gender roles.

Some men are like that and some are more sensitive. It all depends on how they were brought up and their personlity. My husband used to be like that and he would get angry because he couldn't help, but it came out as him being angry at me. He has gone to counseling and changed and now is much more in touch with his sensitive side.

Men don't know what to do when we cry. And they all act different ways. Some want to make it better. Others get totally pissed. Some just have to get you to stop as soon as possible because they're so uncomfortable.

People are complex. It depends on the man. Sometimes it makes them want to take care of you and sometimes it makes them totally uncomfortable. If he gets angry it sounds like he is an insensitive ***.

I don't like it when women cry but I do cave in and I resent every second of it. I just fade out of the relationship if it happens more than once. Its unfair.

It depends on what he was angry about, and thus why you started crying...He may also be thinkin ghtat your faking it to try and calm him down. Which I'd know its not... But have thought so myself at times in my relationship.

I think that it just irritates them more than anything. It depends on what you're crying about.
