It is a wonderful advantage to a man,
in every pursuit or avocation,
to secure an adviser in a sensible woman.

and a plain soundness of judgement,
which are rarely combined to an equal degree in man.

will have a sensitive regard for your character, honor, repute.

for a woman friend always desires to be proud of you.

I should not mind a bit.
but if a friend of mine had a sorrow
and refused to allow me to share it,

I would move back again and again and beg to be admitted
so that I might share in what I was entitled to share.
If he thought me unworthy, unfit to weep with him,
I should feel it as the most poignant humiliation.
- Oscar Wilde

3. Comparing what we have (or don't have) with what others have.

something you thought you had,

Move on and let go.
Life can be joyful and rewarding again.
