A female United Arab Emirates age 18-21, *ola29 writes:

If something is bothering you to the point you feel so hurt and you want to cry but yet, in his eyes, it is so silly, and nothing to worry about. Is it worth getting frustrated over it and confront your significant other and make sure you do not keep it in?

Lola1 agony auntIf something is bothering you and "ignoring it won't go away", then generally it is a good idea to talk about with your significant other.

It would be helpful if you were more specific about WHAT is bothering you. If you can, we may be able to help you find a way to talk about it with your boyfriend, so he will take it more seriously.

Good luck.

Of course it is. Crying is the way to show you're upset and vent all your frustrations. It's important to let everything out. Your boyfriend isn't sounding comforting to be honest, but don't let him put you off. If you need to cry, then go ahead and cry.

quiet-echo agony auntCrying can be a great way to release pent up emotions about things in general, not just something specific. Seldom do I cry, but when I feel the need, I generally do it in private.

Crying as a means of communicating to another is generally seen as a form of manipulation which is why it's not always well received.

If you have something specific on your mind that you want your partner to know, the most effective means of expression is to state it plainly and be clear in what you want or need.
