Happy September All!
"That which does not kill us makes us stronger"-I know most of us have heard this expression at one time or another. It is often said to someone who is either going through something traumatic or has just ended something traumatic. Though the expression can be true most of the time there are times when you should never say this. It will only leave the person it is said to irritated, angry, or confused.
When not to say it
Example: When your fiance of 3 years is breaking up with you. Following it up with the quote from a few posts earlier "It is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all." Talk about sending someone over the edge.
Your turn:
Yeah, I'm just going to say something I have heard before that sounds good and intelligent in order to fake an attempt to help you out.
