Today, I took my girlfriend to go see Les Misérables. I tried to stay tough but completely lost it and started sobbing when Anne Hathaway began singing. My girlfriend called me a wimp and stayed dry-eyed throughout the whole movie. I'm dating a robot. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, me and my girlfriend went and saw "The Blind Side." I sobbed throughout the entire movie. My girlfriend didn't shed a tear. FML
Today, I went on a date with the girl I like, to see The Fault In Our Stars. She didn't cry, but I did. Twice, hard. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I finally watched Toy Story 3; I ended up crying when the toys almost die. After the movie, my girlfriend broke up with me because I embarrassed her. FML
Today, I saw Les Misérables. I was singing along to one of the songs when the guy next to me dumped his soda over my head and told me to shut up. FML
Today, I watched Cast Away with my girlfriend after not seeing it for a year. I forgot how sad it was when Wilson "dies" at the end. I cried. My girlfriend told me to man up. FML
Today, a girl I've liked for months agreed to go to a movie. We were going to see Captain Marvel, but missed the show time, so we saw Five Feet Apart. Blessing in disguise, right? Wrong. She cried while holding my hand as she talked about how in love she is with another girl. FML
Today, I went to watch the Movie "UP." At one point in the movie I got really sad and started to cry a bit. The 7 year old girl next to me noticed and told me to shut and man up. FML
Today, as an aspiring performer, I tried to practice crying on demand by singing "A Little Fall of Rain" and "On My Own" from Les Misérables. It was all going well, until my nose started running uncontrollably and no tears actually came out of my eyes. Maybe acting isn't for me. FML
Today, the girl I like came over to my house to watch a movie. We had seen pretty much every movie that I suggested, so we ended up watching The Lion King. I forgot how sad that movie is, because once Mufasa died I started bawling my eyes out. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend to see the new Avatar movie I’ve waited over 10 years to see. After it was over, she just said, "That was utter shite, why did you bring me here?" Entire experience ruined. FML

Sobbing is a bit much. Maybe a tear or two would have been okay.

'I'm dating a robot' - bit harsh!! I haven't cried at a film since I saw the Fox and the Hound when I was about 9, but I'm not a robot. I've got a little teary eyed at one or two films that bore a lot of resemblance to real life, but mostly I know that films aren't real. So while I get sad, I don't get sad enough to cry about them. I don't think there's anything wrong with crying at a film, just that it's unnecessary to be wailing every time something sad happens, or when it's totally unrealistic. So I wouldn't give my boyfriend a hard time about crying at a film, although it would be very unusual.

Nothing wrong with crying at a movie- but she's not a robot just because she didn't cry. While she might have gone a little too far with calling you a wimp, she's not a robot. I didn't cry at that movie, either, and I know I'm not one.

Turn your man-card over to your gf OP, and buy yourself a Betty Crocker apron. WTF happened in society that so many women on here want soft creatures like you?

That's what my sister thought of me when I didn't cry at my brothers wedding.

Nut up, sissy. It's just a movie.

i can't say I blame you for being lost if you never saw the play. I only knew what was going on because I had background knowledge going into it. And who wouldn't cry during that song? You are not less of a man for crying during I Dreamed a Dream.

I lost it to buddy

Or maybe your girlfriend felt the way I did about it- that Anne Hathaway completely massacred that role & that the stage performance is much better than the cinematic performance. It was impossible for me to get emotional over it because I thought the whole thing was just too hollywood, & not enough theatre.

It was more realism and less theatrical. Cissies was terrible and Crowe was off key but Anne Hathaway was AMAZING

I loved Crowe's voice & I thought he played the role excellently. Helena Bonham Carter & Sasha Baron Cohen were brilliant as the Thenardier's- I really feel they were perfect for the roles, but Anne sounded like a screeching cat & Amanda Seyfried was more believable when she had 4 dads.
