"Chris Pine isn&amp;apos;t afraid to wear his heart on his sleeve. Though he plays fearless leader Captain James T. Kirk in Star Trek Into Darkness, the sci-fi star tells the June issue of Men&amp;apos;s Health he&amp;apos;s not as macho as the character he portrays. &amp;quot;I cry all the time -- at work, at the shrink&amp;apos;s, with my lady,&amp;quot; says the actor, who recently split with model Dominique Piek. &amp;quot;The Notebook killed me. Up destroyed me. Up was like the animated Amour.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nAnother one of Chris&amp;apos; fears? Mediocrity. &amp;quot;It&amp;apos;s the fear of not being as good as you want to be,&amp;quot; he says. &amp;quot;If you give over to that fear, it will sabotage you. As much as I can, I try to use that fear to guide me.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nWhen Chris auditioned for 2009&amp;apos;s Star Trek, he claims it went &amp;quot;as badly as you can imagine.&amp;quot; When he got a callback after bombing, he tried to make the most of his second chance. &amp;quot;When you want something enough, it brings out primal emotions,&amp;quot; he explains. &amp;quot;You get into this place of &amp;apos;must happen, must happen.&amp;apos;&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nGrowing up in L.A., the 32-year-old says he had trouble relating to his peers. &amp;quot;Just looking at a girl felt awkward,&amp;quot; Chris recalls. &amp;quot;When you feel like an oddball, it never really leaves you. Even now, I&amp;apos;m better around people who are uncomfortable with themselves, the misfits.&amp;quot;\r\nHe looked up to his actor father, Robert Pine, who played Sgt. Joseph Getraer on the NBC hit CHiPs. &amp;quot;Acting was work for him. It was a job. I always thought there was something great about that,&amp;quot; Chris tells the magazine. &amp;quot;Almost like you&amp;apos;re working in a bank. You don&amp;apos;t get carried away with yourself.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nThe blue-eyed hunk adds that he&amp;apos;s always considered Robert to be his hero. &amp;quot;he leads with his heart,&amp;quot; Chris tells Men&amp;apos;s Health. &amp;quot;I have a memory of us fishing. It could be f-cking miserably boring, but he was totally invested in what this experience was going to be for me. His absolute dedication to my interest is what moves me when I look back on it.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
