What Gets You Emotional?

i an usually quite a strong, independant girl but i get very upset when, when someone mentions my mum, she left when i was 4 and i never saw her again, im now nearly 14 and i still think about her everyday, i also cry at songs about parents splitting up e.g.

"stay together for the kids" - blink 182
"emotionless" - good charlotte

I'd have to think a bit for movies, though I know the ending of Men In Black 3 does it. I think of emotional as more thought provoking and doesn't always mean break down crying though that does account for a lot of it.

Songs are the biggest source of emotions for me though.
- Internal Landscapes by Anathema
- Thin Air by Anathema
- Are You There? by Anathema
- Hurt as covered by Johnny Cash
- The Raven That Refused To Sing by Steven Wilson
- Feel So Low by Porcupine Tree
- Basically the entirety of the Takk... album by Sigur Rós. I haven't got to understand Icelandic to feel the raw emotion off their music.
- Forever Lost by God Is An Astronaut
- Oblivion by M83 (feat. Susanne Sundfør)
- Truenorth by No-Man

And honestly a ton of others I can't remember at the moment.

Honestly, everything makes me cry. If it's sad in the tiniest it, I'm bawling within seconds. I'm so over emotional!

Lots of things make me cry. One time on a particularly bad period, I cried over a goddamn "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" commercial.

My two close friends are pregnant and keep posting photos of their bellies. I'm so happy for them, and I know that I wouldn't ever want to be a mom at my age. I just happened to go through a miscarriage though and seeing their photos, makes me so emotional. I didn't want a baby, but I didn't want this either. I just needed a place to type this out.

I get emotional when I read really sad things. Or when I meet my inspirations like Jeffree Star and Ronnie Radke. But that's about it.

I never really used to get emotional at things - to the point where I was pretty stoic even when hearing about deaths and stuff. But recently - I don't know what happened - I've found myself tearing up at music, films, TV, all sorts. Anything that's slightly moving and I'll be fighting back the tears.

I get really emotional about TV shows/movies/songs. Like Supernatural when certain characters die/died, I bawl. I bawl even when I rewatch and know it's going to happen. The one night, my boyfriend had to literally turn the show off because I kept crying and couldn't see straight or breathe right. SLC Punk gets me every time. And a lot of songs do. Especially if I watch the music videos.

I have also cried at two concerts: Pierce The Veil and Avenged Sevenfold. PTV was there the night everything went wrong and seeing them live just brought me so much joy. And Avenged Sevenfold has been there for me through some rough times. And I cried when I met a tattoo artist because his artwork is so beautiful and my tattoos mean so much to me, so to meet someone who helps bring artwork to others just got me really emotional.

Okay, I cry a lot -.-

Nature gets me pretty misty eyed, like a beautiful sunset/rise, gorgeous clouds and whatnot. The ASPCA commercials are tearjerkers. Thinking about how I'll probably never know romantic love and thinking about someone really close to me dying.

There are so many songs and movies and thoughts that make me emotional but one random thing that makes me cry super easily is old men. I have no idea what it is but if an old man is really nice or gets taken advantage of in any way I completely lose it.

The movie Nowhere Boy always gets me emotional. There's a lot of songs and albums that make me emotional. Also, I get really emotional about my girlfriend because she's the love of my life and I'm insanely lucky and our relationship is just insane and perfect, and I get overwhelmed with emotion for her a lot because she means so much to me.

I just remembered how true White Flag by Dido now explains my life atm -_-

It's probably pretty weird, but I'm always very well controlled; I don't often lose my temper or raise my voice, and I don't show a large range of emotion, it's basically "amused/unamused"

So the one thing that gets my eyes to well up without fail is that recording of the astronaut singing "Space Oddity" whilst in space. It just... oh god.

And that god forsaken rescue shelter ad with the song.
I would adopt all of those animals just to not have that song haunt my conscience.

It takes quite a bit for me to even remotely get upset or lose my temper but if that happens I'll just leave the room to cool off.

Songs that have just have a certain tone in them or the voice of the singer. When that part plays, I just about lose it no matter how much I fight.

Seeing couples that unite, are going around holding hands, etc. or the couples that get together in movies (lame I know) because I wish I could experience that but never will.

I cry when I think too much about the people I love. I go into this long spiral of emotions when I start thinking about death, just the idea of death.

Also, when I watch any Rise Against's music videos, I turn into a baby. :/ I guess because they all tell a story (like most videos do) but in such a different way, it just kind of throws me off.

I often only get sad when other people are sad. No matter what emotional thing is happening to me, I always get sadder if someone is crying or something.

I get emotional often when I think about the people in my life that mean a lot to me. Not really sure what that means. Sometimes I cry because nature is really beautiful, or music is beautiful.

Nothing. I am an automaton.

Things like this. Basically, anything to do with disabilities. The reason is because of the stigma surrounding us. People don't see the beauty in people with special needs. This video proves just how beautiful that power can be.

Also, Lucky One by Simple Plan gets me emotional. Mostly because this is pretty much my life song and how I feel.

I normally don't cry but the end of Pride and Prejudice had me crying hard a few weeks ago. No idea why, but it happened and now I don't know whether I can ever watch it again.
