Get over yourself..

If there is one thing I can't stand more than anything, are the people who apparently have it worse off than anyone else and crave attention from everyone else about it.

. I'm sorry you did have a bad day, but what do you want me to do about it? Sure I'll talk to you, but a bad mood or event is nothing to sit on forever. You have to move on. People do eventually get bored with someone who rants and raves all the time about their bad mood and that is how you can push a lot of people away. And then you wonder why you don't have any friends..

You had a bad break up, I'm sorry but what about the wife who's husband died in combat? Your parents are getting divorced, I'm sorry but what about the little girl who's parents abandoned her? You're moving, I'm sorry but what about the family who can't buy a home.

I know there are people who are worse off than me. The other people of this country need to learn that also.

What this country needs is less sympathy and more empathy. Yes there is a BIG difference. Sympathy is simply feeling bad for someone, but empathy is actually being able to FEEL and UNDERSTAND what someone else is going through. To be able to put yourself in someone else's situation and feeling EXACTLY how and what they feel.

There is always someone else who is worse off than you and they are the one's who you need to empathize with.

This thread is in the wrong section..

And... it doesn't matter what kind or what level of hardship a person has been or is giong through..

Everyone is entitled to their own emotion and way of dealing of things..

You have no right to tell them to get over themselves just because someone else went through something worse..

Your acting exactly the way you're complaining about.

I don't like it when poeple bring themselves down too but I help them get things together I don't bring them or make them feel lower than they already are..

You yourself have no understanding of what empathy is if you made this kind of thread.

If you don't want to hear it then lock yourself somewhere and never talk to anyone again.. Because I'ts never gonna stop..

The title says it all.. But it should applly to you..

Get over yourself..

This was acutally something I had posted in reply to another topic on another site.. After reading it again, I can see why it would be taken elsewhere.
