Thank you for further clarifying your position. I can understand where you're coming from now.

In the same situation, I'd probably adopt a similar response: no crying, at least not in front of the woman who wounded me; that's for later, when I'm alone. Though I don't think I'd be able to keep myself from crying indefinitely. While still in her presence though, I don't think I'd be able to be silent and stoic, as you advocate. I think it'd be a more hostile response. (link most definitely NSFW if you have speakers)

I cried for you
Now it's your turn to cry over me
Every road has a turning
That's one thing you're learning
I cried for you
What a fool I used to be
Now I've found two eyes
Just a little bit bluer
I've found a heart
Just a little bit truer
I cried for you
Now it's your turn to cry over me

Men can make crying tough. Get into it http://youtu.be/PtL6jRLj0hY
