Don't Laugh

For guys and girls.

If the one you're with tells you that they are hurt, whether you hurt them or something or someone else hurt them, for the sake of their heart and sanity, do not laugh and them and belittle their feelings.

Example.

Jane Doe is cooking for John Doe. Jane knows how to cook and has never had any men complain about her cooking before, until John. John always finds something wrong when she is cooking. One day, Jane is cooking tacos and John comes in and takes over the cooking and when Jane tries to add water to the meat because it is a powder mix and it calls for water, John tells Jane she is drowning the meat and they are going to have soggy tacos. Nevermind the fact that the meat turns out fine. Jane leaves and goes and sits down. John comes over and tells Jane she is being childish. Jane tells John he hurts her feelings. John tells Jane to never cook again. Jane tells John that it hurt that he is always picking on her cooking but that she wants to cook for him.

John laughs at Jane, even after she starts crying.


First of all, John hurt Jane's feelings by picking on her cooking when she just wants to show him she can cook. Secondly, John hurt Jane's feelings even more by laughing at her hurt. Jane goes a little crazy because it does not compute how someone who says he loves her can not only not care that he hurt her feelings, but call her feelings childish and laugh at her when she's crying.
