For some reason, I can't cry at funerals because I just don't cry that often.
But I was wondering if this was bad or heartless? Because once my cousin got mad at me because I wasn't crying at her dad's funeral and it makes me feel awful that I can't cry during these times.
Are there any other ways to display emotion, if not in tear-form? (link)

Someone getting mad at you at their father's funeral is likely to be more about their own feelings of loss, as opposed to really being about you.
In reality, everyone deals with pain, loss, or confusion differently. If you're not a crier, you're not a crier. Only you will know how you really feel - and sometimes you may feel sad someone has died, without truly feeling devestated. However you feel is okay....and however you express it is okay, too.
I don't think you are heartless. If you were, I doubt you would have been worried enough about this to bother posting a question!
