Does anyone else not cry at sad storylines on a soap or is just me?

I cried when Katie died in HO. I cried during the full story line actually everytime Sinead cried. They played Christina Aguilera 'Say Something' during these scenes and I actually get teary when I hear that song. One of the saddest storylines for me. I dont watch ED but I watched Baby Daniel's cot death on YT. God I was a blubbering mess.

Very very rarely. I never respond to the brutally manipulative stuff, where they play soppy music and it's basically hollow and fake, like the Hollyoaks approach. But this stuff with Donna on Emmerdale has definitely got me a bit choked. I'm surprised at myself.

I tend to 'fill-up' rather than cry, I can't remember crying at any soap scenes apart from when Alma died on Corrie when I wept buckets, I wasn't even a big fan of Alma but it was such a sad final scene.
Also Roy has had me very close to tears a few times during the Hayley SL.

Now Alma did make me cry, that was genuinely sad, with her friends around her. Painfully realistic. Audrey crying when Alfie died also had me properly crying. Where there's real proper history and character there, it can really get you.

That is very true. The Jack and Vera final scenes had me very near the edge too.
Got to admit though I have just shed a tear for little Harry from ED, but real life is different and can be so unfair.

It's no shame to be sensitive, Luce. I sometimes wish I wasn't hard as nails.

Tonight's Emmerdale. The saddest episode in ages. Haven't got that upset since Edna's Dog got put to sleep! Lol

Last time I welled up at a soap is EastEnders when Ian and Peter were crying/hugging/wrestling in the square after he told his son that Lucy had died.

I cried dramatically when Peter lost that wrestling match with Ian following Lucy's death. Poor Peter :'( You could tell how upset he was when he feel to the ground and began yelling ''nooooo!!!!!!'' DTC is such a horrible person for making Peter lose like that.

I struggled to feel any emotion because of how horrible sinead was that storyline.
But the graveside scene had me in floods of tears.

I am emotional anyway & cry at not just soaps but other tv shows & films.
When a man cries i usually go
