>>19855714>seeing a single pretty woman miserable fills me with sadnessOne thing I struggled to understand when I was younger is that when women are miserable, they actually don’t want to be relieved of their misery. They’d rather wallow in misery because it allows them to feel victimized and thereby emotionally validated. As such, when you offer practical advice that would genuinely help them better their lives and feel less miserable, they hate you for it. They’d rather you validate their misery by saying, “Yes, all of your feelings are justified!”, instead of actually trying to help them.
TL;DR — don’t feel bad for them because this is the life they chose and would choose again 1000 times over if given the opportunity.
