Confused about his emotions

My boyfriend claims he doesn't cry, like ever. He doesn't cry about sad things or when he's mad, he didn't even cry at the birth of his daughter (not that, that's a necessary thing for fathers to do). In the last 3 months he's almost cried on three separate occasions due to something evolving the two of us and today is the first he's actually full on cried. Him and his ex girlfriend were together for six years and not once did he cry during that relationship but he cried three times today over the possibility of me leaving. I'm not sure to think of it, anyone have any ideas?!

Maybe he's depressed, that will cause tears to flow.

Maybe he can turn the tears on as a manipulation tactic.

Best way to find out------ask him!

Why are you wanting to leave?

Past crying or not crying is meaningless. Is a side dish. Focus on the real relationship issues.

Perhaps he has cried in the past and didn't want to admit it. Why does it matter? Sounds like there are more important issues that should have your attention.

People have told me that if a guy cries over you that means he really does love you. But then again each person is different so I have no idea

Its not that I want to leave. We were fighting and he's insecure and doesn't want to get hurt so he'll start to push me away when he gets scared.

We've taken care of what we were fighting about. we've talked it out and everything is good.

@Kam11; I've heard the same thing and I agree completely, each person is different. But I'm also the only relationship that he says he's felt like this about and I believe it cause if that wasn't at least partially true he would still be married to his ex wife or with the mother of his daughter.

crying or not doesnt mean much. its the little things he do for you to show u his love. those little actions.
