Wait, why are you afraid because he cries? Because he's a BOY??? Boys cry just as much as girls cry! You need to accept how he feels and be there for him. If anything you should have been scared when he would NOT show you his feelings. The fact that he is sharing his feelings with you is key.
Yes, you guys could break up. But you could break up now! Planning your life around "well this might fail" is a pretty meaningless exercise. Everything can fail. You guys could be hit by a bus tomorrow and die! But it doesn't mean you ASSUME or even EXPECT this to happen. You plan your life based on success. That's how you succeed in life. If you just assumed everything would fail, you would never get out of bed.
So just keep telling him, "We will succeed", and help him believe it. And be PROUD of what you have and proud of telling people about it. -- from Jenn
