[quote=Anonymous]OP, this is true of any painful situation that you have experienced and others haven’t. They’re not going to fully get it, nor is it reasonable to expect them to. Don’t insist that others put aside their own pain for yours - that’s not fair. Instead, you have to find the people who DO get it and rely on them for support when you get upset. I have one girlfriend who truly understands the levels (depths?) of my one sibling’s hideous behavior, and so she’s the one I turn to when that hits the fan. I can do the same for her because I get it. I have other friends to whom I’m overall closer but from whom I don’t seek support on this issue because they have no clue. That’s okay.[/quote]
