One thing I have never understood…

When you’re going through difficult times and someone tells you, “Other people are going through worse.”

Is that supposed to be comforting ?

What does that change about your situation ?

[b]Why[/b] would that make you feel better ?

And seriously, what kind of person feels [b]better[/b] for knowing others are in worse shape than they are ? 🥺

I had a psychologist telling me that once 🤦‍♂️

My response is always like what about those others what are they supposed to do? What am I supposed to know with this "very smart" observation.

Reminds me of this weird man who kept talking to me and my sister about his daughter and at the end he says "girls are girls and boys are boys". No shit lol
