Pretty much all my life (only 15 years, but still), I've never cried to a movie or tv show, though I have teared up/come close to shedding a tear. I've watched many famously sad movies, but often come out feeling underwhelmed for the hype. For example, recently I watched Grave of the Fireflies. It was 100% a great movie. But. I never actually cried. I mean, my eyes watered for a bit and I felt sad for a few minutes... But then it was over, back to normal (I was still quite sad-ish until the film ended, but still). I don't know if I'm just not empathetic or just very emotionless, or if it's a side-effect of depression or something, but I just really need a good cry to something other than my own experiences, and I'm yet to experience that.
