Worst advice in this thread. There is nothing wrong with being sensitive, but nobody wants to deal with someone crying during a time of crisis. Managing ur emotions is an important trait to have in the adult world.

No one wants to deal with someone crying during a time of crisis????? Really, person?? Speak for yourself.

i am one of those, if privileged enough to be in someone’s space as they cry, i will just hold them and listen.

in my rare times of crying i would hope that someone comes and hold my hand as i express myself. and they have. they don’t need to say anything. just be there. and there, they are.

There is something to be said to feel safe enough to express emotions, with someone.

If YOU can’t handle someone’s crying, just say that.

I don't think that's the situations OP is in. Honestly, it just sounds like they're a sensitive person who really feels things deeply and in consequence, they show their emotions more often than others. This is very much not bad! It just means that they've got higher empathy and stuff. These other people are the ones in the wrong and you're acting like them.
