Girls don't cry?

Never.

less than 10 times but I shed tears regardless.

I'm not a gent, but

Sadness was deeper than tears.

I can think of about 2 occasions. One out of sheer frustration with an ex and the other as a kid when I had to go home and tell me mum (who recently helped me make a valentines day gift) that my girlfriend at the time dumped me (it was fuuuuucking brutal).
