To want to punch people who say - "cheer up love, it might never happen"

Have an afternoon off with a friend, go to costa. I save a table whilst she ordered drinks.
Quite a queue so I was waiting, having a little think about life. When the man on the table next to me says - cheer up love, might never happen.

I must have given him quite the dirty look because he did apologise BUT it's such an insensitive comment for a stranger to make. For all he know I could have been told I had a week to live.

Wish people would keep their bloody comments to themselves.

I don't have a naturally smiling face so I can look moody when I'm perfectly cheerful and this does annoy me at times.

I had this said to me today, by a man of a certain age, whilst I was at work. My lovely employee over heard and said politely "it has already happened, she's lost her grandmother, split with her fiance and her mother's in hospital. All happened this week.". I could have hugged him.
