Don't Cry Shop Girl

"First let me warn you, I may cry. Now these are not tears of sadness or anger but of me having this conversation with you" - Rachel from Friends

Why is it that girls cry when having confrontation? This week I went through some work stuff and literally had to hold back my tears at some points. Was I sad? No Was I angry? No. I was just having to stand up for myself and I almost cried.

A few years ago I quit my job to come to the current company I'm with now. I cried when I quit that job. I have no clue why I cried. I was moving to a better company with better benefits and more training and more money!! But I didn't like letting my employer down. It was almost like a break up and I had been out cheating on them interviewing with another company. I had to convince them that it wasn't them it was me, I just needed something else. Its very stressful.

Last week I had lunch with a couple ministers from my church to talk about the singles' ministry. I almost cried during that lunch. I don't know why. There was nothing intimidating about it and it was a really great lunch with a lot of positive things coming out of it.

I think this is a common problem with women... we cry at odd times for odd reasons, sometimes for no reason at all. So fill me in... when have you cried in weird times.

P.S. I was not crying while I wrote this :)
