As Miley Cyrus notes we can “buy ourselves flowers,” but as Selena Gomez says, “I mean we can, but why would we want to.” Sometimes flowers, chocolates, and hugs aren’t enough, and you just need to bawl your eyes out.
And for better or worse, Bostonians seem to be pretty knowledgeable on the best spots to cry in the city. Without further ado, these are the best places to cry in Boston, according to Bostonians:
- The Boston Public Library
- Reflection pond at night
- Piers Park 😭
- Green line after work or school
- Dudley… Perfect sad place any and everything can happen to you right there.. oh for those that don’t know it’s now 😒Nubian Sq
- I walked down beacon st with sunglasses on the other day… a beautiful walk with the tears
- Although not downtown, Walden Pond is still Boston area and the best balm for a crying soul imho
