Females: Coronis, they had the son Aesculapius. Leucothea,Clytia,.Castalia,Cyrene,Hecuba,Creusa,Acantha,Males:HyacinthCyparissos
Who was Apollo's favorite lover?
Difficult to say. Coronis was the mother of Apollo's son Aesculapius. Yet he got angry with her and had her killed. He fell in love with Daphne, who escaped him. Difficult, this. His favorite lover was probably Cyrene, a nymph raised as a shepherd girl/huntress by her father, the Lapith king Hypseus. She was a nymph because her mother, Creusa, was a nymph too. Apollo saw her chase away a lion that was despretely trying to kill one of her father's sheep. Apollo was instantly infatuated with her after this and took her to Libya via his sun chariot. There he took her as his lover and founded the ancient city of Cyrene in her honor. Because she was a nymph, she had the power to stay young forever with Apollo. Cyrene bore him Aristaeos, Idmon, and Autuchus. As an adult, Aristaeos seeked advice from his mother, Cyrene, and as a result, taught humanity the secrets of beekeeping. Apollo later made his son, Aristaeos, a god as well.

In Greek mythology, Apollo was killed while practicing discus throwing with one of his lovers, Hyacinth. A jealous Zephyrus (god of the west wind) blew his discus off course and it struck Apollo in the head, instantly killing him. By the way, the word DIE has no "Y".

Did the greek god Apollo ever cry?
Of course he does . Just because he is a god does not mean he dose not cry. This is from the story Apollo and Hyacinth . I copied it from a website. Apollo held his dying friend close to his breast, and his tears fell in a stream onto the boy's bloody hair. Hyacinth died, and his soul flew to the kingdom of Hades. The god bent close to the dead boy's ear, and softly whispered: "In my heart you will live forever, beautiful Hyacinth. May your memory live always among men as well." And lo, at a word from Apollo, a fragrant red flower rose from Hyacinth's blood. We call it hyacinth, and on its petals you can still read the letters "Ay," the sigh of pain that rose from Apollo's breast.
