Good Advice: The next time you want to excuse someone by justifying their situation, check that the person(s) you’re telling it to can’t 1UP it.

23Dec11

Who cares how much she’s lost and how much of her sad life she’s told you about. There are people out there who have less than what she still has remaining. Do you know how ridiculous it sounds to dramatise the amount she’s lost to a person who’s lost even more? The first sentence of this paragraph is what it sounds like. And to completely bulldoze over it as if they were nothing comparatively? You ought to realise that some people don’t have the same freedom to just lay their situation all on you in fear you’d rescind invitation to the friendship.

Look, she still has her best friend available locally (domestically even!), she still has her employment, she has a home to go back to, hell, she still has more family existing than I ever did. So I can’t even relate! Don’t tell someone how bad of a situation she’s in when you don’t even know the situation of the other person(s) you’re explaining it to.
