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?
Everyone displays emotion differently. Some people express emotions such as sadness or anger through aggression and violence, others suppress their feelings and try and ignore them and some do nothing at all. Just because you don't cry when you're sad doesn't mean that you're heartless or grieving any less.
If you're finding it difficult to express how you're feeling, try keeping a diary or scrapbook. Putting your emotions down on paper is a really good way of working things out in your head. Poetry and drawing/painting are also good ways of displaying emotion.
