In Homer's Iliad, the great Achilles son of Peleus—the most handsome yet most feared warrior of his time—wept openly amidst his men. However, it was because his best friend Patroclus was murdered by the reviled Prince Hector of Troy, who was Achilles' mortal enemy.
If a man cries like that in a relationship, he's either a poet (or some other artist type) or he needs medication, therapy, or a combination thereof.
He's too attached to you. It's unhealthy. He needs to know how to be alone, because he seems needy.
Stick with the guy who seems able to have a healthy relationship with you, and one that seems to be working.
