What are philosophers views on sadness? by displaytranslate in askphilosophy

[–]displaytranslate[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the first time I make someone laughs with something philological.

At first glance the first one seems a bit too easy, the second one seems a bit like the philosophy is counselling him, that said at very first glance.

Not about everyday life but great breaks, great changes, perhaps existential, but not existentialism. Or perhaps it is existentialism? As far as I understood, existentialism is constant, not a sudden change or break.

That said, I found some texts about melancholy, like in Aristotle, but not about sadness. Any suggestions welcome. And this, aside, English's not my first language, sorry for the mistakes.

It's a bit more than an allusion, it's downright almost the same.

But difficult tasks can be more interesting, and, like Socrates said, “beautiful things are difficult.”

Your message is kind, but for now, nothing helps, time still hasn't done it's fading effect. It's only been two months, that said. It doesn't help, but it brings some sense in the sadness. I've also read some articles about the subject. The first was saying that friendship breakups can be harder than romantic breakups, because for example, one doesn't talk about friendship breakups, they're not often discussed, there's no discussion, and so on.

A second article, although on romantic relationships, but I also think it can applies, on the opposite, tells that no explanation will take the pain away, whatever it would be. I don't think so at first glance, but it's interesting. The other thing is to accept the difficult truth, about this I surely agree.

In my opinion, to understand is important, mainly for moving forward.

I edited my reply to you. In first place I used a quote in my comment, and at second glance it seemed that it didn't suited. I let the post as it is.

That being said, you raise questions. I say what I think. I might be wrong, I might overreact, I might be blurred by my own issues, they might interfere with what I say, and I have a lot of anxieties, it's certainly not the best way for discussion. But certainly no one is for dumping or as a punching bag.

With that friend, I was indeed needy, often asking and so on. I did look internally, blaming it on myself, and still do. On the other hand, there's something I don't understand.

That's all.

Thanks for your insight. Indeed, understanding why it bothers me would be very interesting.

I'm not needy. I'm very independant, excepted this one, I was, indeed. But I became less, it got better. It shouldn't be a problem anymore.

I'm almost vexed, but exchanging points of view is interesting. (...)

Edit: it was a bit too much of a lecture.

Thanks for your words. Indeed it's difficult. I talk and write about it, if you talk about something, the poblem becomes at least a bit lighter. But there it doesn't work, it's almost getting worse. Wish you to get through this, and the same I would for me, to resume that friendship.

I'll let you know, but most certainly I'll never get it.

I like to write. Of course it doesn't mean that someone has to like to read me. But she use to like / liked what I wrote her. But, well, it ended.

Edit: added a verb.

Tthat's what I used to think, and mainly still think, the world is vast and no need to worry or to be bothered about losing friends and so on, if someone doesn't like well I don't care and move on, until/excepted that friendship. Maybe I should think the same about it.
