My dad died when I was ten and I acted wierd. I didn't cry very much at all. I only cried once or twice. Now I'm 13 and I don't cry about it still. It makes me feel guilty, and I don't know why I can't cry. It also makes me mad because everybody thinks I'm over it, but I'm really not. The last time I cryed about it was last night. But the wierd thing is, is about a month ago I whent to these family riunons, and just started crying for no reason. So here is my question: Am I a freak because I don't cry, and how can I make it so that I don't have the sudden outbursts? Can you help? (link)

No, you're not a freak. You need to do some intraspective searching and try to figure out what it is that has you affected as such. You should also try to embrace these times and let your emotions develop thoughts. You should also talk to a counselor about it.
I haven't cried since I was 5 years old except for periods of extreme stress and anger (about 3 times), and I'm 21 now. This is kind of common among the male's of our generation - society tells us we must be hard and without "emotional weakness". That's a load of carp and crying and experiencing sadness are not a weakness. So embrace it and seek help.
