A female United States age , anonymous writes:

Im in serious crises and dilemma.My husband just cried when he got the news,. that her favorite singer died, . it was not the first time, . he died, and was devastated a few years ago when another fav singer died,. he also cried, and got very emotional when his father died,. many years ago.

But he almost didn't cry at all also few years ago.when his son died . he cried a little, but he moved on very quickly and forgot about it... and never wants to think about it, . or talk about it... he also didn't cry when his stepson was found dead after 2 years of missing,

he also could talk about it to others with no emotions or tears in his eyes,,,

h

im very disturbed right now, and i really wonder what is he really ? A monster or narcissistic, or a schizoid, I don't know how is it possible, , What do you think about all this ? Thanks

It really does not matter why. What matters is why you watch their every move and are so suspicious of them?

Honeypie agony auntI think he, like many men, doesn't know how to handle emotions and grief. So, crying over a celeb is a way to let it out but when your son died he might have felt he had to be strong FOR YOU. He might also have cried in private over the stepson/son.

Not because he didn't care.

Crying over a celeb happened at home, correct?

So he wasn't wanting others to see the tears he just wanted to let some out.

People grieve in different ways. His may seem odd to you, yours might seem odd to him.

TryingToBeFree2023 agony auntI think he finds it safer to cry when it's someone he doesn't know, rather than his own children. With the son who went missing, maybe he grieved to the point of acceptance and death was like a closure to him. The part where his son died, was it a prolonged illness? Even addiction or mental illness? Perhaps it's easier to empathize and feel when it's a stranger bc there is more distance. This doesn't scream "monster" or "narcissist " to me.
