whats the weirdest reason you've seen somebody cry?

I lived in a 3 until apartment house thing. I was on the main floor, there was an old man in the basement unit and a 20-something couple on the upper floor.

The girl in the upper floor seemed like a massive bitch - kind of like she never left her college phase. She wasn't bad to be around but came across as really shallow, as did her boyfriend.

One day the old man downstairs commits suicide, and the girl upstairs, who I'm sure had never talked to the old man in the 2+ years we all lived there at the same time just starting bawling. Like full on bawling her eyes out.

I mean yeah, death is sad but she just could not contain herself to the point where she was just sitting against a wall crying.

Maybe I'm a psychopath but that just seemed weird to me, especially coming from someone like that.
