Maybe I'm more optimistic than I should be, but I kind of think its less of a "this affected me and now its a problem" and more of a "this affected me, it sucked, and now I dont want it to happen to anyone else".
Like, of course she should have woken up sooner, but she could have suffered, been quiet about it, and just let it happen to other people as well. Maybe Im not as cynical as I thought I was.
The problem is they have to experience it first. Every time.
They are incapable of considering or imagining what others are experiencing without going through it too. They are incapable of it.
Because that is what empathy is.
I see it more as... "it's not important, and is a complete waste of money, until it affects me personally"
