He told me before that he cried to try and get his exes back but he did it becuase he knew it would get them back.He knows that I know this, and he said he's not stupid and would not employ such a tactic on me when he knows that I know this information, and that he was crying moreso because he told me he was scared and being so honest with me made him feel really vulnerable.Now he had watery, puffy eyes and sniffly nose. But he had his head in his hands and was making noises until I told him to look at my face becasue I was not going to let him manipulate me. He said he feels like it is karma now, the person he cried in front of is the one least likely to believe him.So how do you tell a fake cry from a real cry from someone who doesnt really ever cry? He cried when his cats died about ten years ago, that was the last time he said he cried properly.

So did you only go back with him because he was crying? I don't think it would matter if he meant it or not. It only mattered if you kept true to your word and listen to yourself.

 Does it matter? If he is crying for real or fake, he is your ex for a whole other reason.
If you don't WANT him back then ignore the crying.
Crying is not a good enough reason to take someone back anyways.
He DOES sound like a manipulative drama queen.

 I don't think it matters.
I can make myself cry and it looks very real.
If you are wanting to break up with him does it really matter if he cries about it or not?
