while yes, it's not the end of the world and it's not like ayumi is permanently crippled by this to the point of being incapable of living normally, i think that there are different levels of showing your support for someone you care about when they open up to you, be it by crying, paper cranes or remaining strong and not getting upset about it. it's really just varying degrees of how a person handles things--and i definitely think, for some people, this IS something to cry over. i've teared up over this because of how strong ayu's been throughout it all. it's all relative, really.

Ditto.
