Is it normal to cry while being dumped?

When my ex girlfriend dumped me I cried. Right in front of her. Alot. Full on sobbing, head in my hands. She was the first person I ever felt in love with and even though the relationship had obviously degraded over time I did not expect the breakup.
I had been going through alot of stress for a while at that point in my life and I was in the middle of a mental breakdown trying to tell her why I was upset when she broke up with me and the tears came. Of course she left thinking it was all about her, when truthfully it wasn't. And I feel so shit about it. It's like the biggest regret I have.
This was a very long time ago but it still haunts me nearly everyday.

    Of course its normal to cry when you lose your first love! Anybody who says it isn't is stone hearted as hell! I'm not ashamed to say that when my first love left me, I bawled my eyes out right there in front of her!

    Sometimes it's useful to watch a sad film so that you can legitimately release your build up of emotions. It gives you the excuse / permission.

    It must be ME who's abnormal. The few occasions I've been dumped made me happy. If my g/fs aren't happy with me, I'd prefer they left than lived a lie. It helps that I enjoy being single, I guess. I can bawl like a baby at films/books I find moving, but I've never shed a tear over any of my relationships ending.

    Your girlfriend broke up with you do you expect to be happy? Why are you people so shocked by simple human emotions? Being sad is normal! You people need to learn this! Sad sometimes is normal. It is not crazy to be sad. People seem to have forgotten that.

    I read that title completely wrong:/

    Yes, it's normal. You love someone with all your heart then they basically throw it and stomp it on the ground. Who wouldn't be torn over something like that? Hopefully one day, you'll find someone who will take better care of your heart.
