To me, crying connotes you’re weak, especially when you’re surrounded by the people stronger than you.
I do have many questions on this sentence.
First off, is “To me” can be replaced by “For me” in the opening sentence itself?
Second, do we need to add “that” in between connotes and you’re?
Third, could I omit the “the”?
I know, I could make this sounds simpler by asking your help to fix this sentence but I’m curious about the first question, I also want to know about the insertion of “that” in this particular circumstance. Also, I'm only "an inch wit" on when to omit the use of the article "the".
A big thanks in advanced......

It depends upon whether those stronger people have been mentioned earlier.
