Yesterday, while watching Beastars on Netflix, I shed some tears. Show's surprisingly good, despite its furry leanings.
But the last time I sobbed was during the finale of the Last of Us show. As a dad, that penultimate scene wrecked me emotionally.

When I watched "The Whale" at the movie theater. Half of the room was crying at the end.
Do you recommend it? Not familiar really
Absolutely! It's a really good movie.
When I moved to my current place of residence. It also coincided with a death, so it was a double whammy.

About 1.5 years ago, when my cat died.
I get teary almost every day - not from sadness, but from watching my kids have a positive experience or trying my best to tell them I love them.
But sort of real, proper crying was at my momβs funeral, before, during and after. That was three years ago.
3 days ago. It was the last day with my girlfriend until the Christmas period. I saw in my watch there was only 15 minutes before she needed to go. Something happened in my brain
Happy cry: I watched Coda for the second time.
Sad cry: when I put my dog down.
This morning. I cry pretty regularly though. It's a good way to keep myself in touch with myself.
No tears for a long ass time but I basically had a no-tear cry when I realized I was struggling so hard to keep up with cleaning, cooking and excercise mentally which is literally what nearly all adults do and many do it on autopilot. Made me feel like such a child.
I was smart enough to recognize that was just imposter syndrome by the next day but it hit hard at the time
A coworker asked me if i was ok and i just broke down hyperventilatin and sobbing
I teared up a little yesterday watching Elemental for the first time. Last time I full on cried was when I watched Coco with my daughter.
Real crying? 7 years ago...
About 3 years ago, I was in hospital, just diagnosed with incurable cancer.

Whenever I last rewatched ATLA.
At the last movie probably haha
7 years ago, before the day my first dog was euthanized at the vet.
Either I've had it alright so far or my medication is keeping it in at this point...

Last week. Why? "You bow to no one"
Last Monday driving to work after filing divorce papers for court date with my ex-wife.
Last week listening to one life by the last emperor
30 years ago when I was 15 or so. From time to time it worries me a bit.
Father's Day a couple weeks ago (in Australia). Something my 8yo daughter wrote in my card, reminded me of how my own dad isn't with me any more, and wasn't around to see me become a dad. Happens most Father's Days, to be honest.
I do grief work daily. I donβt cry often but Iβm grateful when I do. It means that Iβm healing.
I cry almost every day. Two kids under two can be exhausting sometimes, and I have a lot of stress and anxiety. They are awesome, I just can't handle it all the time. I'm lucky enough to have an awesome wife who's very supportive, so we'll get through it!
Just a couple days ago, thinking about my cat that I had to put down ~6 months ago. He was sick and in pain but I'm still sad about it.
I don't think you need to push yourself to cry. Everyone processes their emotions differently. For a long time I also didn't cry much/at all. I was very guarded about my emotions. Between getting older and my wife, whom I can be completely open with, I have gotten more emotional as I have gotten older.
Don't really remember
