FGS OP
You started a thread asking if it was unreasonable to be upset about being compared to a beautiful woman. Ridiculous post, basically.
You go on to say she's "the archetypal overweight, chain smoking pathetic, needy spinster". Charming. You claim you don't judge other like that, but if that were true, you'd have said you felt pathetic/worried about being single etc. To which I would have been sympathetic. But no, you referred to a "type", which shows you make sweeping judgements of other women too, for not living up to your weird ideas of perfection.
And you wonder why someone who's struggling with suicidal thoughts and trauma is horribly triggered by that? Someone who is older than you, single, and doesn't have a good job like Bridget Jones, or yourself?
I am very sorry you've had a rough week, but perhaps you shuld have posted about that, instead of opening your thread with offensive comments about "types" of women.
I understand that people can have a nice life and still feel depressed - after all we're both very priviledged compared to those in the world without running water and so on - but there is a big difference between actually saying what you're sad about and slagging off other women because in your judgemental mind you think it so dreadful to be like them!
And then you decide to come and stick the boot in again. Why's that then? Does it make you feel better to look down your nose at people without jobs, without owning homes, who can't access the support you got?
Oh, and if you've been looking up my posts you'd see your unpleasant comments about needy spinsters actually triggered me for quite a while until I was able to write coherantly again. I was already in a bad way, and browsing MN for some light relief! Generally if someone made the comments you did about spinsters they'd get their arse handed to them on a plate!
I'm very sorry you've had such a dreadful week, but please don't take it out on others.
