I have a great relationship.
With tears.
We’re pretty close, no long distance issue.

•
Very happy, I tear up.
Upset or frustrated, tears.
Extremely grateful, I cry.
I read an emotional post on social media, tears.
A good movie, I bawl.
A great novel, soaked wet.
I witness a person’s genuine happiness (eg) getting surprised by loved ones, tears.
In prayer, tears.
Thinking of someone dear to me, wet eyes.
I see a dog video, especially those where a rescue/abandoned dog gets a dream home, pool of tears.
Going down memory lane, sobs.
Having a soulful conversation with a friend, rimmed eyes.

My tears are no stranger.
We even have little conversations, "not now biko", "hold yourself", "no go embarrass us".
It’s a weird but fulfilling relationship. And it works for us.
