¶ your life isn't that bad
any time I think my life sucks, or I'm in a shitty situation, I remember that there's always someone way worse off than me, and I don't feel so bad anymore. I usually don't feel good either, but it helps to know someone else is having it at least as bad as you are. misery loves company or something like that.

Case in point. Meet S. S was a Nepalese farmer, just hanging out in Nepal doing the farmer thing, when A came around. A was working the peace corps in Nepal when she met S and they fell madly in love or something like that. A convinced S to leave friends, family, and country to marry her and move to the US with her. All was well for a few years. S started learning English, american customs, all that fancy jazz. Then A got bored and decided she didn't really care for S anymore. While S hung out in upstate NY, A went traipsing around in Mexico where she met C, fell madly in love or something like that, and experienced some serious marital infidelity. A convinced C to leave friends, family, and country to marry her and move to the US with her. But first she had to divorce S, who still loved her.

S is now going through a divorce after only a few years of marriage, and has sinced moved to Cambridge. I guess you could say he's better off than he was before cause he's in the land of opportunity and will inevitably go farther here than he would have as a farmer in Nepal or some bullshit like that, but no matter which way you put it, some things suck pretty hard for S.
